Manicure & Nail Art Photographer London

Professional manicure, nail-art & nail product photography by Simon Songhurst — specialising in clean product shots, creative nail-art imagery and campaign-ready visuals for nail polish and beauty brands.

As a Manicure & Nail Art Photographer based in London, I specialise in capturing nails, manicure work, polish textures, packaging and creative nail-art imagery — delivering refined visuals for salons, nail brands, beauty labels, and editorial clients. My work ranges from clean product and polish-bottle still-lives to stylised hands, manicure detail shots and creative compositions tailored for campaigns, social media, e-commerce and print.

I photograph a wide variety of manicure- and nail-related work: nail polish and lacquer bottles, gel polish swatches, liquid textures, nail-art hands, stylised close-ups of nails, nail-care products, manicure tools and cosmetic accessories. I also shoot creative set-ups, branded nail campaigns and lifestyle-adjacent nail imagery for advertising, brand launches or editorial spreads.

Nail photography demands precision: controlled studio lighting, accurate colour rendering, reflection and surface management — especially when working with glass, glossy polish, metallic accents or textured packaging. I ensure each image is colour-accurate, clean and consistent across a series, making it ideal for product catalogues, web shops, branded content and marketing materials.

Whether you need simple clean still-life images, polished nail-art compositions, or creative, campaign-style visuals, I deliver steady, reliable photography that supports your brand identity. My workflow, lighting control and attention to detail make me a dependable choice for nail bars, polish houses and beauty product companies seeking professional output.
