Associate Member of Headshots Matter


 

I’m Magdalena, the heart behind Atelier 2.5, a Glasgow-based portrait and headshot studio. With a background in Fine Art and years of experience, I combine technical expertise with an artist’s eye to create portraits that feel authentic, striking, and deeply personal. Whether you're looking for a portrait that captures your essence or professional headshots for LinkedIn, personal branding, or acting, my approach is all about making you feel comfortable, seen, and celebrated.

My headshot photography goes beyond a simple picture—it’s about crafting an image that works for you. From actors needing standout casting shots to professionals looking to elevate their brand, I guide you through the process to ensure your headshots reflect your personality and goals. Sessions are relaxed, collaborative, and tailored to bring out your best—so you walk away with images that don’t just look great but work for you.

 What Other’s Are Saying

"When I came to Magda for the session, I was stressed. As a mature woman, not as slim as I used to be, with a little extra here and there...I was worried—how would this go, and how would I look in the photos?

The biggest shock came when I saw the final results… I couldn’t believe that the woman in the portraits was me.
In everyday life, I’m full of insecurities, but in the photos, I saw a beautiful woman—someone Magda managed to bring out with her personality and professionalism."
