Review shots during the session so you can make adjustments and leave confident in your final selections.

One Extra: Add an additional edited image to your package at the time of booking, for just £25.
Additional retouched images purchased after the shoot are £30 each.
Help me pick: Sometimes it can be hard to be objective when looking at pictures of yourself and therefor, if you would like help whittling down the images in the contact sheets, choose this add-on. I’ll then spend one to two hours looking though the proof images to recommend 10-20 shots in which look your best and/or show off your character range. From there you can make the final selection for editing.
48 hour express editing: £50 in addition to full package price.
With express editing, once you have let me know your choices, your images will be edited and returned to you within 48 hours, rather than the standard 7-10 working days for this package. This only includes the number of edited images the package includes. Additional edited images may take longer.
