The first thing EVERYONE says is :-

“My Dog/Cat/Horse has never been in a studio and we’ll NEVER get them to do this!”

Well – none of these little munchkins had been in a studio either ….. and every one of their corresponding humans thought  the same!

Yes….it might be chaos! But I’ve been doing this for over 30 years so whatever chaos you’re bringing will be nothing new!!

 

 

HEADSHOT DAYS – £150

Annie Bee Headshot Days! A beautiful opportunity to capture everything that is gorgeous about your pet. Or even just to ‘try out’ the whole portrait experience before booking a full session! These 30 minute sessions are “all inclusive” and will allow us to create one perfectly classic portrait.

After your session this will be sent to you as a Fine Art Print , double mounted and framed at 16×12 and ready to hang (worth £95) You will also receive the matching digital file.

Please note that, after this session,  the photographer will choose and edit the best image. If you would like to choose your final portrait yourself then please book a Commissioned Studio Portrait below.

COMMISSIONED PORTRAIT – STUDIO

 

 

 

I want both. Can we do a studio AND an outside session on the same day? 

Most of my clients, at some point, have a commissioned portrait AND a documentary session. Some clients have a commissioned portrait ONCE and then have a documentary session every year after that!

Technically we can do them on the same day – But talk to me first. You will know your animals so much better than me and I just need to know that they will not get stressed out!!

 

Do we have to come to you?

The majority of my studio commissions ARE done here at the studio in East Haddon. However – if it is easier (for instance if we are photographing a lot of horses or dogs on the same day) I am happy to bring the studio to you subject to suitable facilities being available such as an indoor school or a large barn. Because of bio-security standards here on our own farm all farm bovine commissions will be undertaken at your own location.

I would PREFER to come to you for outside sessions . Your own location as a backdrop to your images will mean SO much more to you in years to come when you pick up your album!

Just pick up the phone and lets have a chat. I work Nationwide so it doesn’t matter where you live or where you are going on holiday (yes – my clients DO ask me to join them on holiday for location sessions. What could be easier? All the family together in a photo AND pictures of your dog on the beach!)

 

How far will you travel? 

I work right across the UK, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. Travel time and mileage is based on 95p/mile from NN6 8DS but just send me a message and tell me where you are and I will give you an accurate cost.

 

I am a trainer/breeder and need lots of images for breed directories and advertising or lots of individual animals photographing

Just pick up the phone (01604 770013) and talk to me. Similarly if you are on a yard with lots of other owners who are thinking of having portraits done then lets organize a ‘photography day’ or a ‘headshot day’ just for you.

 

What sort of things can I do with my finished portraits?

This is never a decision I make for you! Your session fee INCLUDES your favorite image framed at 16×12 to get you started. But sometimes you want something else – and this is absolutely fine!

My Fine Art printing is done in house and I have TOTAL control over the process. Whatever you need – no matter how bespoke the sizing – then I will be able accommodate you. I also offer a full range of acrylics, metallic wall art and framed canvases from the leading Print Houses in the UK.

My books and albums are handmade at Graphistudio in Italy – the Rolls Royce of album manufacturers.

With the benefit of being able to look back at ‘clients favorite’s over the last 30 years most clients are booking a Studio Commission because they want something beautiful for the wall. Outside or ‘Lifestyle’ Sessions, which will give you all of those gorgeous ‘story-telling’ images, lend themselves beautifully to a book or an album (as well as the hero image on the wall!)  Framed Images for the wall start at £65, Story Books start at £125 and album at £395.

And don’t forget that your digital images are supplied fully edited and at high resolution with a full print release. A Commercial Usage License (including worldwide usage rights) can be supplied at no additional cost for clients who also wish to use their images for their business. Perfect if you have a ‘pet based’ enterprise or for your ‘About Me’ page regardless of your industry.

 

WHAT DO I DO NOW?

1. Simply check availability for your favorite day. I only ever do one of these sessions a day and please be aware that at busy times of the year such as the school holidays and in the run up to Christmas I may have a six week waiting list for sessions. Simply pick any available date and time IN THE ANNIE BEE DIARY

2. If you have something happening that is date critical (perhaps family visiting that you would love included or a poorly pet) then please still get in touch even if my diary is full. If I can I will happily try to juggle things around to accommodate you.

3. And that’s it!! It really is as simple as that! Once I have your booking I’ll give you a call and we can have a chat about who you are bringing and what you would love to do!

 

Not quite ready to book and just need some more information?

Give me a call – 01604 770013 or register for FUTURE HEADSHOT DAY DATES

I look forward to photographing your most precious things!
