Signature Portrait Commission

A deeply personal, carefully created portrait experience for someone who wants more than a conventional photography session.

You may be marking an important stage of life, celebrating yourself, creating an artistic portrait, honouring a personal story or commissioning photographs that carry particular meaning.
Unlike the branding sessions, which are designed to provide a varied library of professional content, the Signature Portrait Commission concentrates on a smaller collection of individually crafted images. Every selected portrait receives my detailed signature finishing and close artistic attention. Your commission includes:

✔️ An in-depth 30-minute video consultation
✔️ Creative, clothing and styling guidance
✔️ Two hours of guided photography
✔️ A carefully chosen location or professional backdrop setup
✔️ Assisted image review and selection
✔️ Eight hand- retouched digital images
✔️ High-resolution and web-ready files
Where possible, we will review your images immediately after the session. Otherwise, your assisted selection will take place by video call within 48 hours.

£595, including 8 finished images.
Additional images are £55 each, or five for £225.

A guided process from beginning to end

Select the package that most closely matches the number and variety of images you need. You are welcome to contact me before booking if you are unsure which would suit you best.

We will meet by video to discuss how the photographs will be used, what you want them to communicate, your location and clothing choices, and anything that concerns you about being photographed.

You will not be expected to arrive knowing how to pose. I will guide your positioning, expression and movement while paying attention to the details that make a photograph feel natural and believable.

Where practical, we will review the viable images immediately after your session. Otherwise, we will meet by video within 48 hours for an assisted selection. I will help you compare expressions, identify unnecessary repetition and choose the strongest combination for your intended purpose.

Your selected images will be individually retouched and delivered in high-resolution and web-ready formats within seven working days of your selection and final payment.

What These Images Don’t Say, But You’ll Feel

This is about more than looking good. It’s about being seen.

Every image you see here began with a conversation—not about poses or outfits, but about who someone is, what they’ve walked through, and where they’re going next. Whether it’s a portrait marking a personal turning point or branding imagery for a business built from soul and sweat—this work is rooted in presence, truth, and intention. You won’t find generic poses or trend-driven edits here. You’ll find depth, stillness, story, and a reflection of something real.

What Clients Say About Being Seen This Way

This isn’t just about beautiful images—it’s about the experience of being truly witnessed. Here’s what past clients have shared about their time with me: the honesty, the emotional safety, the quiet confidence they rediscovered, and how these portraits now feel like mirrors of their essence. Their words speak louder than any pitch.
  • Renata took so much time to make sure she got to know me and the purpose behind the photographs – she’s a talented artist with an eye for details and intuition about the person she’s taking the pictures of – they’re really like works of art as if someone has painted them.
    A really enjoyable experience and spectacular images, thank you.

  • I loved every minute of my experience with Renata. Not only the final results were amazing, but the experience with her and my shooting day was surprisingly pleasant, rewarding and enjoyable. She made me feel so relaxed in front of the camera and didn’t even feel slightly nervous which I would usually be. If anything, I even had a glimpse of being a professional model 🙂 Thank you so much Renata and definitely would like to work with you again in any future occasions.
