Please find below some information about our prices and products. Hopefully there is sufficient detail to answer your immediate enquiries, but please remember that every photography commission is different and everyone has slightly different needs so please do contact us for final confirmation and to discuss any bespoke ideas - there is very little we can't accommodate.
Generally, all of our prices are based on two elements;
1. the amount of time needed to attend the event photography / portrait photography / wedding photography / commercial photography / landscape photography commission. This also includes the post production time necessary to show your photography at its best, and for a wedding for example, it can take longer to post produce the photography than it can to take it in the first place. The benefit of this is that we can offer a wide range of finishes and effects, with every image available as colour, black and white, duotone (or sepia), or selected colouring, not to mention effects such as selective blurring, cut-outs, and retouching undesirable elements (such as background signs, people in the way, any slight blemishes).
2. the finished presentation pieces chosen by you. This may include hand prints, wedding albums, framed portraits, canvasses or large format graphics for exhibitions or work places. We only supply high quality finished products for our work. This is to ensure that your final photographic artwork is presented in the most appealing and durable products befitting the importance of your event, as well as protecting our reputation as a professional photography business. In nearly all of our packages however, we offer a 'straight to cd' option, which allows you to take advantage of our photography skills but also to take responsibility for your own outputs. This way, you can match your album to your budget, produce prints in the future, or pass it around your friends and family. There is naturally a modest premium on this service to offset the loss of revenue to our business, but it is very popular, especially with photography lovers who want to make their own albums, special effects etc.
