Our Outdoor Studio options are weather and daylight dependant and vary in availability according to time of year.

We are on hand to answer any questions, give us a call to discuss what the right options are for you.

We understand that each family is unique, and we will discuss the images and combinations you are wanting during our design session.

What if my child is unwell on the shoot date?

If someone is not feeling well, we will simply re-schedule. We just ask that you let us know as soon as possible

For young children, think of what you would bring along on a day out. Snacks, wipes, favourite toys, blankies. Steer clear of snacks like cheezles, that stain faces and fingers.  Also hold back on the sweets, sugar highs can come crashing down mid-shoot.

These are all things we discuss during your design consultation.

Of course these are all just suggestions, if bold patterns and bright colours are part of what make you wonderful, wear it!

If you get your hair coloured, do that before the shoot, if you like having your nails done, do that. Make-up, we suggest doing the same as you would for a nice night out, although if you love to be pampered and made up by someone else and feel that this is what makes you shine, go right ahead!

Gents, have a shave before you come in – or don’t – it all depends on how you feel your best. Just remember the old rule… two weeks to a good haircut!

For the kiddies, full make-up on a child is unnecessary, hair out of eyes is suggested. Pay special attention to nose, eyes and mouth, make sure there are no remnants of breakfast, snacks or the backyard 🙂 Wet wipes are always a great asset.

For particularly hyper dogs we do suggest you take them for a walk right before the session, this can help expel a bit of energy before the session.

Collars and leads, make sure they are ones that you like.  If not, maybe its time to go shopping for a new one.

Also photo day is the perfect day for bribery! Bring in your dogs favourite treats, this can be a big help when it comes to co-operation.

For the safety of your pets and also others we ask that all pets arrive on lead or in an appropriate carrier.
