People are once again starting to appreciate the value of the old fashioned family portrait sitting. There is nothing to beat a properly posed and lit portrait session. Two styles are popular:

• Traditional. We have a wonderful setting for traditional photographs. With plenty of space for large groups (we have handled portraits with 21 people) we can set you amidst old surroundings and antique furniture. This will give a timeless quality to your colour or black and white photograph.
• Contemporary. For families and young children especially, a contemporary style shot against a white background is very popular. We encourage a modern, fresh style, with lots of movement. The finished and framed, bright and light prints are stunning.

A typical studio sitting lasts about an hour. Following this we invite you back for a viewing session when you can choose your prints and frames. The photos will also be put on the web so that you and your family can order additional prints later.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Don’t lose those memories

Babies and toddlers change by the week.   Everyone takes hundreds of snaps of their child growing up, but there is rarely the chance for you to stand back and take a professional portrait.   And even if you do freeze that special moment in time, would’t it be great to have a series of professional images to show your child’s progression through the years?

Our baby and child photography service is designed to provide you with a series of stunning photographs through your child’s early years.   We can schedule one annual session or several, to suit you.   We can start with several studio sittings in the first two years, when appearances change so fast, and then change to one a year.   We’ll keep track of the reminders if you want us to.

A typical studio sitting

Babies don’t normally perform to order, so we have to work with them.   We generally shoot in our studio, because there is plenty of room to crawl around, but we can shoot at your home if you prefer.   We have lots of children’s toys to keep them occupied, but it is always a good idea to bring a favourite toy to keep them happy.   We do what we can to get the child relaxed and happy.   Sometimes this means that we have several small shoots with breaks in between.

We use studio flash lights to get a perfect lighting set-up and allow baby to play in a clean environment, but we can take outside shots o natural light shots in our house or yours.

Choosing your prints

From a typical studio sitting we’ll have around 100 images to show.   The best way to see these and to visualise what they may look like as framed prints, is in our viewing room.   We show you the full set of images on a large screen.   You can quickly narrow these down to your favourite few.   Our software lets you view these inside any frame and colour scheme.

Frames and prints

Following the viewing you can order prints or frames.   Prints will be ready in a few days, while frames will be delivered to you within three weeks.   All images are carefully processed by hand.   Prints are produced in a professional laboratory and the frames and prints are hand assembled.
