Carol's portrait sittings are relaxed and fun which results in informal images that that capture the uniqueness of everyone. She never rushes the sitting-which can vary between 1-2 hours- as it is important that everyone is settled, enjoys themselves and feels comfortable. In this way she can ensure that you get the very best photographs that won't disappoint.
Sittings can take place either in the relaxed atmosphere of Carol's custom built studio, at your home or on location. The time of day is an important consideration especially for young children who may get tired later in the afternoon or evening and also for you so you have time and do not feel rushed. When you ring to book a sitting, the best time will be discussed with you.
Carol uses Canon EOS digital cameras solely and always has a back up camera with her. After the wedding she will spend time digitally enhancing your photographs checking for light, tone and colour and adding some creative touches where appropriate.
Many people ask what clothing is best to wear. For a timeless photograph that will not date, then plain and casual light clothing is best. Carol wants her photographs to capture you and your personality, not the latest designer label or fashion!

Within 10-14 days of the sitting, Carol will arrange for you to come to her studio to view and select your photographs in a relaxed atmosphere. The package you select will be tailor made to suit your requirements and budget. Carol photographs everything digitally and if you see a photograph and want something slightly different done to it she can apply effects to photographs for you e.g. softer focus, sepia. Just ask!
Carol offers a wide range of portrait sizes starting from 5" by 7" as well as a selection of mounts and frames.
