A portrait photography business can be a home-based, on location, or in a commercial studio. There are many opportunities in the residential and commercial markets for portrait photography including executive portraits, pet portraits, maternity portraits, sports portraits, school portraits, baby portraits, senior portraits, family portraits, glamour portraits, and much more.
When choosing a portrait photography name, try to pick a business name that is easy for potential customers to spell and remember. You may want to use your own name such as “Sarah Smith’s Fine Portraiture”, or you could use your location in your business name such as “Orlando Fun Family Portraits”. If you use your own full name attached to your business name, you may have less restrictions when registering your business.
It can be difficult to come up with a creative and unique portrait photography business name. You will want your business name to stand out from the competition. A tagline connected with your business can help with this. You could use a more general photography name such as “Jim’s Photography”, and then add a descriptive tagline to further describe your services. Some examples are: “Capturing Your Life In Images” and “Portraits and More” and “On-Location Portraits.”
Below is a list of some name ideas to help inspire you in choosing a name for your own portrait photography business. Some of these names are used by actual companies. Make sure you research the other photography businesses in your area to make sure the name you choose is not trademarked or already being used before you start the business registration process and order your marketing materials.
