Absolutely!  I can also offer direct expert advice as to which session would suit you best depending upon what you are looking to do with your images after the session. Please call me on 07879 840171 to chat or drop me a line.

Once you have decided that you would like to book a session with me, we first agree a mutually convenient date.

I will then send you a session contract that can be completed electronically and an invoice that can be settled via bank transfer for your deposit. Once the contract is returned and payment complete your date is secured.

We have a full consultation by phone or email to discuss your requirements and ensure that your session is totally bespoke and will meet your expectations.

I will send you a link to a Pinterest board in advance of the session so that you have some ideas or what to bring and/or what to wear for you and/or those also taking part in the photoshoot.  I will also ensure you have all the information you need for the day.

An initial payment is made via bank transfer in advance in order to secure your agreed photoshoot session date.

I don’t take card payments at the moment although I can sometimes I can arrange a Paypal transaction if a bank transfer is not possible.

I will send you a Pinterest board similar with advice regarding clothing. These boards change depending upon the season and obviously your type of session!

Generally I advise no logos, bold patterns or stripes. Careful planning of your outfits really makes a difference.

I will advise in plenty of time of the photoshoot anything you may want or need to bring with you. This could be anything from dog biscuits to children’s toys, a rug or a change of clothing. This consultation process ensures that the session will run smoothly.

I always book a back up date with you in the case of inclement weather.

I will stay in touch with you in the run up to the photoshoot session and, depending on the forecast, can change the time slightly if it will help with light and weather conditions.  If it does end up raining heavily and it doesn’t look as though it will stop we will halt the session and reschedule to complete.  This does not happen very often!!

I am very experienced with children and even worked as a primary school teacher for a number of years. Please do not worry – we will discuss hints and tips in advance to help the session run smoothly. I work closely with your child and we usually establish a lovely rapport. Sessions are fun and relaxed and snacks and little bribes for afterwards help too!  Timing is also important for the youngsters to ensure they have had enough rest in advance and this will all. be discussed prior to your session.

Unless otherwise specified, images will be ready for viewing about 2-3 weeks after your shoot. I prefer to invite you to a post-shoot viewing session at my home studio so you get to see your images in a video on a large screen without watermarks.  This also gives you the opportunity to view samples of my prints and framed products before placing an order. This is not a hard sell, simply a great chance to choose what will work best for your home and allow me to sort everything for you.

If it is not possible for you to visit me I now do Zoom Viewing Sessions where you can see your slideshow of images and we can discuss options for your home.  In advance of the session I will have created some examples of the types of wall art that suit your home via a selection of digital mock-ups.

My prints and frames product guide can also be seen here.

No you won’t see all the raw images.  I take many, many images over the session and will choose the best to edit and then present to you at our Viewing Session.  This varies depending upon the length of the photoshoot. The one hour Owner and Me Photoshoot will have 5 -10 edited images to view, whereas a full 2 hour shoot will likely have approximately 15-20 edited images.

Further final edits are carried out once you have chosen your favourite images, however you may purchase all the images in your gallery should you so wish.

I only work with the best professional photographic laboratories in the UK and can therefore ensure perfect colour and excellent quality should you wish to order prints with me.

However if you choose to purchase the rights to the image in for form of the full resolution digital files from your photoshoot, you can print the images yourself. Full details of my pricing for digital images can be found here.

I only work with the best professional photographic laboratories in the UK and can therefore ensure perfect colour and excellent quality should you wish to order prints with me.

Most of my photoshoot sessions come with a complimentary 6 x 8″ mounted print so you can see exactly how the images should look before choosing to order any further prints.

Yes of course!

I want you to have an opportunity to leave with finished artwork ready to hang and start enjoying as soon as possible. I also take away the worry of having to find a supplier that will print your images beautifully or finding a suitable framer.

All my photographic equipment is calibrated to ensure accurate colour representation and I only use professional, UK based print laboratories and wall art manufacturers who have the highest standards in production quality.

My prints and frame product guide can be found here or please contact me for a full price guide.

Your collection may already include some prints and digitals so once you have seen the images taken at your session at the Post Shoot Viewing Session you can choose your favourites for these. I also offer a wide variety of frames and other wall art,  so once you have seen your images you may like to choose how to display them.  In fact your Collection may also include some credit which you can put towards this.  However there is no obligation to purchase anything over and above your chosen Collection – but I can promise you that you will be tempted!
