Beautiful Portrait Photography in Usk, South Wales
Welcome to one of South Wales’ go-to studios for quality portraits with personality! The Cowshed is a premium portrait photography studio, in the countryside just outside of Usk and serving families and professionals across Monmouthshire and South Wales and into Herefordshire.
I specialise in studio and location family and dog portraits, professional headshots, and personal branding photography in South Wales – bespoke sessions designed to capture your story with emotion and authenticity.
The Cowshed is fully inclusive studio - a safe place for every body. #welcome
My portraits are more than photographs – they’re gorgeous, guided moments, designed to capture your memories or enhance your professional image, and take pride of place on your walls for years to come.
People love Photography by Liz for two things:
how enjoyable the experience is and
how stunning the results are.
Ready: We start with a quick call, WhatsApp message or email. You tell me who’s coming and what you’d love, and I plan the session around you.
Steady: Your session is relaxed and full of laughter. I use movement and play, so nobody has to “say cheese”.
Go: I hand-edit your best images. Then you come back to see them on the big screen and choose your favourites as prints, wall art or albums. Some packages offer online gallery viewing.
I get the tingles every time I look at the beautiful pictures that now adorn our home. You immortalised Beth and Ellie's personalities and relationship forever. The whole experience far exceeded our expectations. We will forever treasure our beautiful wall art.

Photography has been my passion since my teens. I’ve photographed weddings, worked for international charities, shot for magazines, taught, and judged competitions.
After going head to head with cancer, I opened The Cowshed: a cosy studio where people feel safe, seen and celebrated. My job is to help you relax enough to be yourself, then capture that beautifully.
Hi, I'm Liz
Photographer for Usk, Monmouthshire and South Wales
The Cowshed is at Llancayo Court, just outside Usk, with free parking right outside the door. It is a converted rustic barn beside Llancayo Windmill, tucked away down a private drive with the River Usk on its border.
Free parking, step-free level access. Please tell me about any access needs and I'll adapt things for you
As well as local clients from Usk, Raglan, Cwmbran and Pontypool, clients will travel as the studio is a pleasant drive only 20 minutes from the Prince of Wales (M4) Bridge, around 40 minutes from Cardiff and just over an hour from Worcester, Hereford and Cheltenham. Clients travel for the experience and quality.
I have many clients from Abergavenny, Chepstow, Newport and, being on the English-Welsh border, also Herefordshire including, Ross-on-Wye.
Tell me who you’d like photographed and I’ll come back to you within 24 hours.
Do you have an idea or a project? Please share it!
