Portrait
Photography
Sylte Studios makes portraits for designers, artists, and founders, directed and lit to the same standard as the studio's fashion work. The result is an image library that holds up in press, on a brand site, and next to everything else a brand publishes. Oslo-based, working from a studio in Grünerløkka, with travel when the project calls for it.
For founders and leadership teams, personal brand and company brand move together. Made for people who want their own portraits held to the standard they expect everywhere else.

Your questions,
answered
-
It starts with a short call on purpose, tone, and where the images will be used. Sessions run in the Grünerløkka studio or on location, with references and styling agreed beforehand so the set arrives looking considered rather than assembled.
-
Yes, and it's the better way to do it. Shooting a team in one session keeps lighting, framing, and finish consistent, so the portraits read as one group rather than a collection of separate sittings.
-
Usage is agreed in writing before delivery, covering channels, duration, and territory. Press portraits are supplied with guidance for third-party publishing, so titles can run them without coming back to check.
