studio sittings

Our studios are designed for the myriad of jobs a portrait photographer is required to undertake. Our studio sittings cater for all age groups and break down into two main categories.

traditional sittings which are often in black and white and are ideal for those who want timeless, traditional studio portraits of the highest calibre. They can be formal or informal, the choice is yours. See studio sittings gallery to get an idea as to what is possible. (A traditional studio sitting is also available at home, please note that on these occasions at home fees apply.)

contemporary sittings which are all the rage at present. These are full of bright colours, un-posed action shots and are best suited to families with younger children. The results offer a totally clean and contemporary theme and should be framed in a similar fashion. See studio sittings gallery to get an idea as to what is possible.

During a sitting I take individual photos of each child, all children together and some family groups.

Sittings take between 1 and 2½ hours depending on numbers involved and produce 20 shots of each individual and 20-30 shots of various groupings which can be supplied on the internet or as a contact sheet sent directly to your home.

Photographs may be ordered in black and white, sepia or colour either mounted or un-mounted and of course framed if required. From the results of a sitting we can produce a mass of fantastic products. Visit all products and prices to have a look at what is on offer.

sitting fee explained

Our sitting fee is the same for both traditional and contemporary studio sittings and is worked out on the number of people to be photographed individually.

The sitting fee is worked out on the number of people to be photographed individually. It covers one family and includes shots of each child, various group shots of all children and some family groupings.

Individual sitters in addition to four are charged at £60.00 each. This includes parents who want individual portraits of themselves. I am more than happy to photograph extra people but where possible let us know the numbers at the time of booking so we can allow extra time.

The fee includes an 8x6” mounted and signed photograph of each individual sitter.
