Classic photoshoot

Glamour Photoshoot

Instantly become a glamour model with a Makeover Photoshoot

A picture paints a thousand words: so why not tell your story in photos? Capture a beautiful family moment, let your wild side loose or discover a side you never knew. It’s all about getting pampered, looking the part and enjoying a fun-filled experience – as well as creating timeless memories to treasure. The result is simply picture perfect.

On the day, you will meet your photographer and stylist (if undergoing a makeover) before receiving a consultation to determine what you want from the experience and how you want to look. The makeover is carried out by a professional stylist which includes hair and make-up, and you will usually have a complimentary drink too.

Then it’s into the studio for a fun-filled photographic experience! Your photographer (sometimes accompanied by an assistant) will offer guidance and direction throughout, and in most cases you can use props to personalise your shots. The experience may also include different backdrops or use of lighting to introduce additional character.

Most photoshoots are done in your own outfits, although a limited selection of clothing and accessories may be available.

After the photoshoot you will be able to browse the shots either on the day, or come back at an agreed date to view the results.

Photoshoots are available for him, for her, and for families.

Food for thought:

Enjoy a Family Photoshoot with all the family. Get a souvenir 10x8 inch print after the event. Red Letter Days assures there will be no hard sell either.

These sessions are designed to be fun and informal – a chance for your child to shine and for you to take home wonderful memories, along with a timeless memento to cherish. Most sessions start with a consultation and, where applicable, a makeover or styling for your child followed by a studio session. Props are often used and you are usually welcome to bring your own too.

The Bump to Baby Photoshoot gift experience is a great way to professionally capture the precious time in the last trimester of pregnancy and the first few months of baby’s life. Enjoy two photoshoots showcasing your radiant glowing beauty with a bump and your precious bundle of joy once baby has been born.

A great idea:

Boudoir photoshoot for your eyes only

Boudoir Photoshoot

Boudoir (and "Dudoir") sessions prove that anyone can look glamorous and sexy, irrespective of shape and size.

You can bare all or just a little in this tasteful treat, where you’ll look electric and feel fabulous. It’s a fantastic experience that will have you pouting and posing under atmospheric mood lighting, with expert direction from your photographer on how to get that sexy, smouldering look. Whatever your size or shape, this is the perfect confidence booster and a lot of fun to boot. It’s just for your eyes only (you wouldn’t want your parents to see it) and a special secret that’s yours to treasure forever.

It's available for women (boudoir photography), for men ("dudoir" photography), and for couples, and makes a saucy Valentine's Day or wedding anniversary gift. It's tastefully done - no smut here - with glamour placed front and centre.

Fancy heating things up a little? Discover your sultry side and set the studio alight in this red hot photoshoot which will frame you in a whole new light.

One common issue that arises from photoshoot experiences surrounds the photos themselves. They're normally pretty expensive. You usually get one small print included (or a digital file in some locations) included in the experience, with the option to purchase more. The most common complaint I have seen is that some locations use very pushy sales tactics to try and get you to buy optional photographs. You do not NEED to buy additional prints if you choose not to, but bear in mind the photographer may try to put pressure on you. Also bear in mind that due to copyright restrictions, you can't normally take the digital files to Asda or Tesco and get them printed on the cheap without a copyright release form.
