BOOK YOUR SHOOT
You can book a portrait sitting either in the West Greenwich studio for £75 or your home or another London location for £110. This fee covers the shoot itself, editing and enhancement of your portraits and a viewing about a week after your shoot. There is no minimum investment, but clients generally spend between about £400 and £2800 on prints, albums and canvases.
NEXT STEPS
You can book a time for your portrait sitting or make an appointment to visit the West Greenwich studio for a no-obligation consultation about your portraits, see more portrait examples and leaf through albums and galleries, so we can establish your tastes and preferences. To book a consultation or book your shoot, call the studio on 020 8469 2371. Weekends are the busiest times, as are November and early December, in readiness for Christmas, so if you would like one of these times, it’s best to book as soon as possible. Payment for the portrait sitting (bank transfer or credit card) confirms your appointment.
YOUR SHOOT
Allow about 90 minutes for your portrait sitting. Unless you’ve visited the studio before for a portrait consultation, we start with 15 minutes to talk through what you would like from the session and your tastes. We also make a viewing appointment at this time, unless it’s already in the diary. You can bring along as many changes of clothes (and accessories) as you like on the day.
YOUR VIEWING
About a week after your portrait sitting, you return to the studio to see your portraits (home arrangements also can be made). These usually are edited down to about 20 to 30 images, with perhaps some additions if you are planning on having a bespoke album. You’ll choose which images you like best and how they are going to be presented. Prints are ready for collection in about three weeks and canvases and framed prints are ready in about six weeks (excluding holidays).
