all you need to know about Portrait photography with Luisa Young

Each portrait I create is crafted with intention — a reflection of personality, emotion, and storytelling through light and detail. I’m a Nottingham-based professional portrait photographer specialising in editorial-style portrait photography inspired by fashion editorials, cinematic imagery, and timeless portraiture. My work is influenced by natural light, expressive faces, and the quiet confidence of my subjects.

As a professional portrait photographer working across the UK, I focus on quality over quantity, taking on only a limited number of commissions each year to ensure a highly personal and creative experience. My portfolio includes editorial photoshoots for models looking to elevate their portfolios, expressive lifestyle and family sessions filled with genuine connection, and heartfelt portraits of pets and their people.

Among my portrait work, you’ll find Vogue Italia–featured photography, published editorial imagery, and personal storytelling sessions created with families, children, and individuals of all ages. Each session is designed to tell a visual story — elegant, natural, and deeply human.

Whether I’m photographing a model inspired by classic fashion muses, capturing the warmth of a family moment, or creating a soulful portrait of a beloved pet, my goal is always the same: to create genuine, artful and enduring portrait photography.

Editorial Portraits for Models

My editorial portrait photography blends fashion influences with cinematic storytelling to create images that elevate a model’s portfolio. As a professional portrait photographer based in Nottingham, I work with models, actors and creatives across the UK to create agency-ready imagery with expression, versatility and presence.

Whether you’re developing your book, refreshing your test shots, or building a new portfolio, each session is designed with intention — combining refined lighting, thoughtful styling, and a quiet confidence inspired by classic fashion muses.

Lifestyle & family sessions

My lifestyle and family photography sessions are designed to capture real connection — the quiet, honest moments that make your story uniquely yours. As a professional portrait photographer based in Nottingham, I create natural, emotive and beautifully relaxed family portraits that honour the people (and pets) who mean the most.

These sessions focus on genuine interaction, timeless storytelling and heartfelt imagery — perfect for families, couples and individuals who value meaningful photography.
