Portrait Photographer in Copenhagen

Who is portrait photography for?

My portrait clients are a diverse group: business professionals who want a professional profile photo for LinkedIn, their website, or press coverage; artists, musicians, and actors who need photos for promotion and social media; and private individuals who want a beautiful portrait—for themselves or as a gift for their family. No matter where you are in life—you’ve come to the right place.

For both individuals and businesses

A portrait from Weigang Photography can be used for many purposes. Business portraits: professional and credible photos for websites, presentations, the press, or LinkedIn. Personal portraits: a beautiful photo for social media or as a gift for your loved ones. Artistic portraits: for artists, musicians, and other creatives who want photos for their website or marketing.

Sådan foregår det

A portrait session takes about 60 minutes and takes place in the studio at Vesterbrogade 171 or at an agreed-upon location. The process is simple and relaxed.

1
Set aside plenty of time for the shoot – it should be a calm experience When booking, I recommend that you choose a time when you have plenty of time and don't feel pressured. This provides the best conditions for a safe and comfortable session – and the best images.
2
We start with a short chat When you arrive, we'll have an informal chat about your wishes and the purpose of the portraits. The more you tell me, the better I can customize both style and mood – and of course guide you through the entire process.
3
We start in the studio – and may continue outdoors We usually start in my studio, where there is peace and quiet and full control over the light. This provides a safe setting and clean, stylish images. If the weather permits, we can also shoot outdoors to give you more variety.
4
Do you want a different location? It's also possible to shoot at a location other than the studio – just arrange this in advance.
5
You'll be guided every step of the way Don't worry about how to stand or look. I'll help you with posing and expression so you feel relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera.
6
We look at the photos together along the way I typically bring an iPad or phone so you can follow along and get a feel for how the photos look. That way we can adjust if there's anything you want to change.
7
Select the images at home in peace and quiet When the session is over, we settle up immediately. Shortly after, you'll receive a link to an online gallery where you can choose your favorite images at your leisure – possibly with a friend or partner. Trust your gut feeling.
8
Editing and delivery Once you've made your selection, I'll edit the images. As a rule, you'll have them ready within a couple of business days. If you have a deadline, it's important that you let me know well in advance.

FAQ

Questions and Answers

Everything you need to know about portrait photography.

What should I wear for portrait photography?

Feel free to bring multiple outfits
It’s a good idea to bring different options so that we can change along the way and adapt the clothes to the look you want. The choice of clothing plays a big part in how your images are perceived – which is why it’s an important part of the preparation.
Think contrasts and variation
A classic setup could be a blazer and shirt. Alternatively, bring a crew neck t-shirt as an alternative. This allows for both a formal and a more relaxed look – perfect if you want to use the images in different contexts, such as LinkedIn and social media.
Calm, muted colors work best
Stick to neutral colors without big logos or wild patterns. A dark jacket and a simple, light shirt or t-shirt almost always works well and keeps the focus on you – not the clothes.
Clothes should match your message
Think about what you want to convey with your images: Should it be professional and authoritative? Friendly and welcoming? Or creative and personal? Your choice of clothing should support the impression you want to make.
Avoid this
Oversized clothing – especially blazers – can make the body appear larger and less balanced in photos. In my experience, oversized blazers for women often end up requiring little tricks like tucking the jacket into the back to create shape. When in doubt, bring both a regular and an oversized version and we can assess together what works best.
Patterns, stripes and bold textures can be distracting in photos. Bring an alternative so that we have something to switch to if it turns out that it doesn’t work optimally in the camera.
See inspiration in the gallery
If in doubt, take a look at my gallery – especially in the LinkedIn and CV portraits section . Here you can get a good impression of what others have chosen to wear and find inspiration that suits your own style.

When and how do I receive the portraits?

After the shoot, you’ll receive a link to an online gallery where you can select your favorite images at your leisure. You can take your time – and get input from a friend or colleague if you wish.
Once you’ve made your final selection and let me know, I’ll start editing. Usually, you’ll have the finished images ready within a couple of business days. If you have a deadline, please let me know.

Can you help with an image for an election poster?

Yes, I recommend the Portrait Package for politicians who need election posters printed, as we can create the headshot needed for the poster but also create some images that can be used on social media. When you book, please let us know which party and if there is a manual that we need to follow, alternatively you can bring it with you on the day.

Practical information

Address:
Vesterbrogade 171,
1800 Frederiksberg

*AT AGREED LOCATION (COPENHAGEN)

It’s possible to have the photos taken at a location.

If you’d like photos in the area around my studio on Vesterbro, we can easily do it spontaneously as part of the shoot. Just note it in your booking so I know in advance.

If you have a specific place in mind that isn’t in the immediate vicinity of the studio, the location must be agreed with me in advance. If it’s centrally located on Vesterbro, Frederiksberg or in Copenhagen K, we can usually find a solution – for example by scheduling the shoot as the first or last appointment of the day.

The location must be central and reasonably easy for me to reach from the studio. This option isn’t offered for locations further from Copenhagen or places where transport would require significantly extra time. If you’re unsure about your desired location, feel free to contact me before booking.

If the shoot falls in the middle of the day and requires extra travel time to and from the location, a small surcharge may apply for the extra time. We’ll of course agree on this in advance.

If it involves a private building or an area where photography requires permission, it’s your responsibility to arrange the permission in advance.

Helt igennem fantastisk oplevelse! Han var utrolig dygtig til at skabe en afslappet og god stemning, så jeg følte mig tryg foran kameraet. Han var meget god til, at dirigere mig i forhold til kreative forslag til billederne. Resultatet er blevet helt fremragende – billederne overgik alle mine forventninger! Kæmpe anbefaling herfra.
