Frequently asked questions...



What do I wear?
You are welcome to wear what you wish however if having a studio session against a white backdrop, avoid white or pale colours, brighter colours help you stand out against the backdrop and make your photos pop!
What about footwear?
Heels are a no please however any other footwear is welcome. If your worried your shoes will get a bit grubby on the way to your session, don't panic - there's plenty of wipes on hand to give them a quick once over.

Are the images on the USB restricted?
No, your USB is yours, those images on that USB are yours to use as you wish. You may print and share those images as you wish (however I do offer prints and canvas 's should you wish to order through me).

Will you help guide us? Tell us what to do?
If you know what images you're after great! However if you don't, don't panic. I'm here to help guide and suggest photo ideas which we can discuss during the shoot. As well as this there are many example images all around the studio which you can take inspirationfrom and I have an exciting prop cupboard full of things you're welcome to use during your session. 

Do we have to use props?
No, not at all if you don't want to.

How long do photos take?
This can vary from shoot to shoot, time of year and how long I was shooting. A typical full day wedding in peak season can take anywhere between 10-12 weeks. In quieter periods, around 10.

For photoshoots, usually up to 2 weeks maximum.

Do I need to come to you to view photos?
No, you will be given a link to my website and a step by step guide to get to your gallery which will be on my website. Your gallery will be password protected and you will require this to access them. You can view your photos from the comfort of your own home either on a computer, tablet or mobile device, please note though, galleries are only kept online for 6 months approx. 

Do I do discount on multiple bookings or purchases?
I'm afraid I don't, I feel my prices are very competitive as they are.

Do I do gift vouchers?
Yes I do, any amount of credit you wish. Vouchers last for 6 months and are to be used before the expiry date. They expire at the end of the month set. If the recipient fails to use them within the set time, I'm afraid they lose their voucher. They are non-refundable and non-returnable.

Am I insured?
Yes
Am I CRB checked?
Yes
Am I qualified? 
Yes

How many people can be on the shoot or can I bring?
Sadly, the studio is not huge and I need to allow a comfortable amount of space for myself to work during the shoot. Because of this, there is a limit of 7 people allowed in the studio at one time. 7 people is the maximum for one shoot at one time and the largest group photo I can accommodate for. I do not have lots of seating so if you have a small group but wish to bring spectators, I would advise you only bring a couple of people along with you. Any larger groups for photoshoots will be required to be shot on location. 

Do  I need to pay a deposit? 
If you are booking a shoot on a weekend, booking a multiple Equestrian yard booking or a Wedding, yes you will be required to pay a deposit. Deposits are non- refundable and are in fact booking fees that secure your booking on that specific date. Any refunds given with deposits will be at my own discretion. No shows who wish to rebook will need to pay a 50% of the package up front as a non-refundable deposit and booking fee. No wedding date is secured without a deposit.

Are engagement/pre wedding shoots essential?
No however they're a great way for me to get to know you both and vice versa. It's also a way I can learn what your style is like and what your comfortable with doing. It's good practice for the big day and you're able to take a look at your images to give you a good idea what you could expect on the day. As well as this its a relaxed, fun session we often use to also discuss your day. Your plans are always changing so it's really helpful for me to learn all your plans and what to expect etc.

Do I do Passport photos?

No I’m afraid I do not offer passport printing or photographic services.

 

Terms and Conditions

 

  • Deposits are non- refundable and are in fact booking fees that secure your booking on that specific date. Any refunds given with deposits will be at my own discretion. If a deposit has not been paid your booking is not secure and not being held, meaning this can be booked by someone else.

  • Transferring dates - if you are looking to move your wedding date due to Covid-19 this can be done, but your new dates you may be looking at are not held indefinitely. Your back up date/dates are not fully secured without either 100% cancelling your previous date and committing to the new date or, by securing a backup date with an additional deposit until you’ve made your decision.

  • Payments for prints and canvas's must be paid for before I can order them.

  • Your usbs are checked on 2 different computers before leaving me to ensure they are 100% fully working. Usbs are delicate pieces of data. All it takes is something heavy placed on it, a simple drop or being left in the sun can interfere or corrupt the internal circuit. It's strongly advised once you have your USB to move those photos onto a computer or safe place so you have a backup. Replacement usbs will not be given if the USB has been with you for longer than 2 weeks. The USB is your responsibility.

  • Once your USB, prints, canvas's or photobooks have left me, they are no longer my responsibility and I cannot be at fault for any damages that may happen to them when they have left me. I am not responsible for them and replacements will need to be paid for.

  • I do not keep your photos forever. They are kept online for 6 months and kept on my system for the same 6 months, after this time it's at my discretion whether the photos are destroyed or stored for longer. It is your responsibility to choose your images from the 6 months of you receiving your gallery and is at your own risk if you choose beyond 6 months, when I may not have your images still.

  • If I happen to have your images still and you would like the gallery restored onto the website, this does entail a fee of £10 which can be payable by bank transfer. Or, alternatively, you can book in for a meeting at my studio to arrange viewing the images and choosing which images you would like for your USB (this does not involve any costs). Viewings can be booked for Mon to Friday 9am-6pm or occasional Saturdays when I'm shooting at the studio.

  • Usbs will be replaced if damaged in transit or faulty when first used. Please check your USB right away.

  • Any offers on will be valid for a specific date, if you are booked in through a specific offer this needs to be done in a set timescale, cancellations that are wanting to rebook won't be at the said special offer.

  • No shows or cancellation within 48 hours of your shoot will entail a fee. This is 50% of your chosen package - you will not be able to rebook any future shoots until this is paid.

  • Cancellation due to illness isn't a problem, this cannot be helped, just let me know you're cancelling ASAP.

  • Payment methods can be bank transfer, cash or card

  • Prices are subject to change at any point.

  • The studio can hold up to 7 people at a time, bigger groups for photoshoots will need to be on location shoots.

  • I will try my up most best to get lovely smiles out of everyone on the day of your shoot, however in the unfortunate cases where some are not happy to cooperate or even take part, I cannot be held responsible for lack of photos, lack of smiles etc.

  • Unedited images will not under any circumstance be provided or available to purchase at additional cost. When you book a shoot with myself, you are booking not only a shoot but my style, my way of shooting and editing. Clients will not be sent unedited/unfinished photos. You will only be sent the finished shots only.

  • I will never force anyone to take part if they don't want to

  • Any weddings will have a written contract between myself and the couple confirming all details and wedding terms and conditions.

  • In the unlikely case I cannot be help responsible for lack of photos if the children aren't willing to cooperate/participate on the day.
