Frequently Asked Questions

How do we book My Life Photography?

Call us on 01933 681699 or 07766 257130 for a no-obligation chat. We’ll explain what makes the My Life experience so different. Then if you want to book, we’ll arrange a date and time for you to come in for your shoot. Weekends and evenings aren’t usually a problem.

How many photos do you take during a typical shoot?
Hundreds! We edit down to show you the best.

How long does the shoot last?
Each one is different. But it’s unusual for a shoot to last less than an hour or more than two hours. We won’t rush you, though.

How soon after the shoot can we expect to see the pictures?
It's usually about a week. Every picture is worked on by our retoucher to make sure you look your best. You’ll be invited to a preview show to see your images.

What shooting style do you use?
Typically we shoot a mix from … everything from more candid, reportage-style photos to high-fashion to suit you and your style.

Can you do specific photos?
Of course. Just ask!

How soon after the shoot will we get our finished photos?
Usually about a week, but it can be up to six weeks for hand-finished photo books.

Can I pay in instalments?
Yes. As long as the balance is paid before collection of finished prints or albums.

Can we have a CD with our images? Can we have a DVD of our pics? Can we have big enlargements or canvas wraps? Or other fine art prints? 
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes! If what you want isn’t in our standard price list, just ask!

If you like! Please check in advance to ensure we can accommodate you and your pet and we know you’re coming!

Can I buy Gift Vouchers?

Do you come to the home?
Yes, we’ll photograph you wherever you want. We do find that our clients don’t need their home environment to feel comfortable - your photographer will help you to relax. We do charge travelling expenses for journeys more than 25 miles from our studio in Finedon, Northants.

Where is your studio?
We're at Draycot Studios, 81 High Street, Finedon, Northants, NN9 5JN. For a map, click here...

Do you do my make-up as part of the photo shoot?
The My Life experience is all about capturing your natural character and revealing the real you so we’d prefer you to come wearing your normal make-up. If you do want a professional stylist or make-up artist, this can be arranged at additional cost.

How long do you keep my images?
We will keep all your images for a minimum of one year, but we have images on file going back for many years!

How much do My Life photographs cost?
We offer a wide range of display options that come in different sizes and formats to give you a striking feature in your home. As a guide, a black and white or colour image in a stunning hand-made frame costs £125 + VAT.

Who owns the copyright on my images?
My Life Photography retains the copyright to all images taken at your session. If you want to purchase additional products then please contact us.
