Solo Portraits: Johanna on Crantock Beach in north Cornwall

June 22, 2026 · Leave a Comment

As I dust off the corners of this blog, I keep finding little sessions that I’ve done here and there over the years that I never blogged. It seems that I wasn’t THAT dormant after all, it’s like I’ve been regularly getting hits of portrait sessions to keep my need for working with humans satiated!

Johanna is a photographer based in Finland, and one of my oldest dearest friends. When she was updating her materials, she needed new portraits, so when she came to Cornwall for a visit, it seemed obvious that we needed to head down to the beach for this session.

If you’re looking for a portrait session in Cornwall, Crantock beach with its gentle dunes and magical evening light never disappoint!

Brand Portraits for Jo & Co lifestyle store in north Cornwall

Cornwall business brand portraits jo and co by Marianne Taylor

I never blogged these images, as life kind of got away from me at the time. There are way too many images from this shoot with Jo from Jo & Co to choose from, so I’ll just share a small selection here. It seems appropriate while I’m in the midst of updating and reshuffling (or should we say resurrecting :D) this website!

Shot at Jo’s beautiful store in Hawksfield Artisan Village, it was such a pleasure to spend time picking out pretty details and making portraits of Jo and some of her staff members at the time.

If you’re in north Cornwall and would like me to come take portraits and lifestyle shots of your business, you can find more information on brand portrait sessions here.

Brand Portraits for Creatives in Cornwall

September 15, 2017 · 2 Comments

Brand portraits and headshots for creatives in Cornwall.

Carrie runs Jewelbox Cornwall, a small creative business where she hand paints beautiful frames for people’s heirlooms. It was a joy to take some brand portraits for her new website, even if we were experiencing the strongest winds Cornwall had seen in a while, which made our trip to the beach a literal whirlwind!

If you run a creative business in Cornwall, do get in touch to ask about brand portraits and headshots!
