The Story Behind Headlinephoto

​

Headlinephoto was founded by award-winning photographer Jason Mitchell and specialises in conferences, awards ceremonies, executive headshots and corporate branding photography across the UK.

​

Founded by award-winning photographer Jason Mitchell, Headlinephoto has spent over three decades photographing people, brands and events — from celebrity assignments in Los Angeles to major corporate conferences and awards programmes throughout the UK.

​

Jason began his photography career in 1994 working for a national press agency, covering news, entertainment and celebrity photography. His career later took him to Los Angeles, where he spent seven years photographing high-profile celebrities, entertainment events and sports personalities, including extensive coverage of David Beckham during his time at LA Galaxy. Over the years, Jason has built what is believed to be one of the largest independent photographic archives of David Beckham’s years in Los Angeles.

​

After returning to the UK, Jason established Headlinephoto with a focus on delivering high-quality corporate photography for businesses, agencies and national organisations. Today, the company works with clients across a wide range of industries, providing photography for conferences, awards ceremonies, networking events, PR campaigns, leadership summits and executive branding.

Clients have included Hilton Hotels, Conrad Hotels, Enterprise, Nike, Krispy Kreme and TGI Fridays, alongside many leading national brands and organisations.

​

"I believe the best photographs come from making people feel relaxed, comfortable and genuinely engaged before the camera is even raised — creating natural imagery that reflects both the professionalism and personality of every event."

Headlinephoto has also been the official photography partner for the Energy Efficiency Awards for over 10 years, covering more than 15 awards ceremonies annually across the UK. In recognition of this long-standing partnership, Jason received special recognition from the organisers for his contribution and coverage of the awards programme over the past decade.

​

In both 2024 and 2025, Jason was honoured with the Business Awards UK Photographer of the Year award.

​

The approach at Headlinephoto is professional, relaxed and people-focused. Whether photographing keynote speakers, executives, networking events or awards evenings, the aim is always to create natural, confident and engaging imagery while helping clients and guests feel comfortable in front of the camera. Building genuine rapport before the shutter is released is a key part of the process and helps create authentic photographs that reflect both the professionalism and atmosphere of each event.

​

Today, Headlinephoto continues to work with corporate clients throughout London and across the UK, delivering modern, polished photography designed for marketing, PR, social media and brand communications.​
