Portrait Session: Families, Individuals, Children or Friends for just £24.99 Including 1 FREE Print of your choice

We believe capturing outstanding 'people images' is about so much more than just capturing a likeness of a person, we understand everybody is different with a unique personality and so it is essential that we use all our creative skills to capture the very essence of the people we photograph in the style they want. We also fully understand not everybody is comfortable in front of a camera and babies and young children don't always want their picture taken ! that's why we adopt an easy going fun approach during a shoot, we want our clients to relax and have fun because it is only then we can truly capture the special pictures we all want.

We offer a full range of styles from contemporary lifestyle to more formal family portraits but we always encourage our clients to be part of the creative process to ensure the image style is matched to the subject. We also encourage clients to bring along 'props' or children’s favourite toys or football kits etc to include in the shots. Please contact us if you require advice about clothing

Portrait sessions can be shot in our studios or if you prefer can be shot on location. The shoot will normally last about an hour but there is no strict time limit set so within reason we will keep shooting until we are sure we have the images you want, you will then be invited back to the studio about a week later to view and choose any images you may want to buy.

Pet Portrait Session just £19.99 Including 1 FREE Print of your choice worth £25.00

Many people regard their pets as very much part of the family and so we believe capturing outstanding pet images is just as important as any other kind of portrait and deserves the same technical skill and attention to detail. As animal lovers we enjoy photographing animals and understand that patience and technique will be rewarded with outstanding images of your pets that can be treasured for a lifetime.
Gift Vouchers are available for pet portraits and make excellent presents

A pet portrait session will usually last around 40 minutes during which time we will take a number of different images in various styles from modern to classic. Once the session is over you will be invited back to the studio in around a weeks time to view the images of your pet and will have the chance to choose your free print and any others you may wish to buy.

Pet portrait sessions are also ideal for breeders of pedigree and show dogs looking for outstanding images of their treasured pets for use in promotion and advertising.

Whilst this service is popular with individuals of all ages and also makes a great gift for someone, ladies are also welcome to get some friends together, a bottle of wine and come to the studio one evening and have some fun ! Our own professional make up artist will be on hand to make you look a million dollars and then we will do a photo shoot both individually and as a group with each person able to choose one free print.
Individual prices start at just £59.99 but please contact us for group prices as this is dependent on the number in the group.

Bridal Studio/Location Shoot

We have two options on offer, the first is a studio portrait shoot that involves the bride and or groom in full wedding attire. With the use of creative lighting and various studio set-ups and props this gives you the opportunity to own stunning classic or contemporary wedding images that the official photographer just wont be able to capture on location during the pressure of the big day

The second option is a post wedding style, very popular in the USA known as 'Trash the Dress'. This style basically involves shooting creative, 'fashion style' images of the bride and or groom in the wedding dress on location, these locations can vary from industrial settings to walking in the sea or posed in front of a graffiti painted wall to a derelict building. This creative use of location, lighting, make up and advanced image processing can lead to some truly outstanding, 'artistic' contemporary images that you will be proud to own and display.
Prices for the bridal sessions start at just £50.00 including the use of our own make up artist but again, we will be happy to tailor a package to your requirements and budget
