Hi, I’m Ondrej, a portrait and headshot photographer based in East London.

I work with actors, creatives and professionals to create headshots and portraits that feel like them.

I believe the best portraits come from people feeling comfortable enough to be themselves. My sessions are collaborative and relaxed, creating a welcoming environment where clients can settle into the experience and leave with images that feel natural, confident and true to who they are.

Everyone feels differently about being photographed, so I take the time to understand each person and adapt my approach accordingly. Whether you’re completely at ease in front of the camera or feeling nervous about your session, my goal is to make the experience enjoyable, supportive and inclusive from start to finish.

Originally from the Czech Republic, I came to photography after more than a decade working in the corporate world. After completing the Professional Photography Course at the London Institute of Photography, I decided to turn a long-standing passion into a career. That background shaped how I work with people and taught me the importance of balancing professionalism with a personal, human approach.

Today I photograph clients from my East London studio, specialising in actor headshots, professional headshots and contemporary portrait photography. My aim isn’t simply to create a great headshot, but one that genuinely feels like you.
