The idea
More than a headshot.
Less than a production.
For people who need more than a single polished portrait.
ZBS Private creates a considered visual library around you and your work. Directed when it helps. Observational when it doesn’t.
Portraits, people, places and detail, without turning the day into a production.
Shape the commission
A day, shaped
around you.
Every commission begins with the same question: what do you need the photographs to do?
Portraits
Considered images for profiles, press, speaking, launches and the moments when you need to be seen clearly.
At work
Meetings, preparation, collaboration and the details that make the work yours.
In motion
Arriving, leaving, travelling and everything between the set pieces.
Off duty
More relaxed photographs, still considered enough to publish.
Social
Vertical frames, details and informal imagery built for the way you actually communicate.
“Recognisably you.
Just seen with more care.”
The brief can be precise. The day shouldn’t feel rigid.
Direction when it helps. Space when it doesn’t.
How it works
Considered beforehand.
Easy on the day.
Brief
What’s happening, and what do the photographs need to do?
Shape
Locations, priorities, wardrobe and the rhythm of the day.
Shoot
Directed portraits and natural coverage, without over-producing either.
Deliver
A carefully edited private collection, ready to use.
The Private Day
Multi-day, international and production-led commissions are quoted separately. Travel outside Greater London, commercial campaigns and third-party brand usage are agreed separately where required.
Discretion
PRIVATE
MEANS PRIVATE.
Some work is public. Some never should be.
NDAs, publication embargoes, restricted galleries and confidential locations can all be accommodated.
Discretion is part of the service, not an add-on.
