Prices vary depending on complexity and length of work, but for standard photography its from as little as £150 - a full day rate of £730. I'll be am to provide an accurate cost once we've spoken in greater depth about your project. Please see the rates and charges page.
Once we've had a chance to talk. Based on your brief, we are 100% confident that the quote provided will reflect the final cost. However should additional services and/or images be requested which will significantly alter the supplied quote, we will advise you of the changes before proceeding.
Our professional photographers are willing and able to work where ever your work is. We’ve had projects up and down the UK and as far away as Bahrain, so if you’re willing to pay for travel / accommodation we can support your project.
Yes, we can and generally do. Post-production is a very broad brush covering many types of ehancement work. We split this work into 2 categories. ‘Basic’ post-processing (levels, exposure and colour adjustments, sharpening etc), this is included in all quotes as standard. 'Advanced' manipulation consists of the removal or inclusion of major parts of the image, skies, doors, people, etc. This can be very time-consuming and so each image is discussed with the client and costed separately to the original estimate. This way you can control the amount of manipulation and keep a handle on costs.
For our professional photography, we use a range of professional digital equipment chosen to suit the project's specifications, we only ever use the highest quality lenses. Camera equipment is only a small part of the capture process so we use a mixture of professional studio lighting and available ambient light to suit the brief and produce the best results.
This is very much dependent on the complexity of the job, co-operation on the shoot, and distance between the various areas that we’re asked to work in. Generally speaking, we can provide between 100-150 images on a half-day shoot and between 200-300 on a full-day shoot. We’ll give you a better idea of how many images are possible on your shoot after discussing a brief with you.
A first draft of the edits is sent within 2 days of the shoot. An urgent service can be provided, but comes with an additional service charge. After you've had a chance to look them over, we can move along to the retouching phase.
After shooting your project, the images will be uploaded to a bespoke password-protected web proofing gallery. At this stage, you can feedback any comments or alterations that you’d like to happen to any of the images prior to the project completion. After the enhancements have been completed, your images will be provided via electronic download usually We Transfer or similar. If you need images sent in a particular way due to Firewall or IT exclusions we can accommodate most requests.
