your session
What To Expect
I like to describe my sessions as fun and relaxed, but also: very busy!
If you are coming to the shoot, it would be great if you are hands on. Things I would need help with: unpacking products & props, gathering products for group shots, cleaning the products before the go into the set, approving images as we go.
Schedule for the day:

Tidy studio
I shoot straight to my computer so you will see everything being shot in real time. We will choose the very best images from the shoot as we go. I’m happy to provide variations of the same shot if requested (e.g adding baubles for a Christmas version). My rate for extra images is £35ph to cover the processing time after the shoot.
After the shoot
Getting Your Images
After the photoshoot, I will process all the images and give them a quick once over in photoshop. You can expect to receive your images one week after the shoot date. I will send web ready jpegs & high resolution jpegs which are suitable for print via WeTransfer. Please keep a ‘master copy’ of the images in a safe place (hard drive, Dropbox, Google Drive etc) and make a duplicate to edit.

How Often Should You Refresh Your images?
After you have had your collection photographed, you might want to consider seasonal shoots to maximise the popular sales periods such as Valentines Day, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Christmas etc. I am also on hand to create some more relaxed social media content of works in progress, vision boards, desk scenes & bts images.
You should aim to refresh your website home page once a month to maximise its potential.
I would suggest shooting 3-4 times a year to have fresh marketing content.
