They understand that the first impression is often the most lasting, and what better way to convey reliability and competence than through professionally crafted headshots. I travelled to their elegant office and set up my lighting equipment and backdrop, ready to capture the essence of Rathbones' team members. From financial advisors to support staff, each individual steps in front of the camera with the knowledge that their image will reflect not just themselves, but also the values and principles of Rathbones as a whole.
