Product Photography

I work on small orders myself and have other photographers who I have worked with before to call on for large orders. The most common request I have is to have the products placed on a pure white background with an added shadow or reflection. Sometimes my clients ask for their products to be placed on a clear layer so the product can be placed onto different colour backgrounds or onto a website. If you want to find out more about my product photography please see my website.

Here are six commonly asked questions by families:

Do you offer w.end or evening shoots? – Yes, I work from 9 am-9 pm Mon-Saturday.

Can we bring our dog? – Yes you can as long as they can make it up five stairs then they are welcome.

When we get high resolution images can we copy them? -Yes you can, once you have bought the digital image from me you can copy it as many times as you like for your friends and family.

One of my children is very shy I am worried he won’t play ball on the day – Try not to worry I have had plenty of experience of taking pictures of children in nurseries right through to secondary schools. I have a few tricks up my sleeve to get the giggles going.

How quickly do we get to see our pics? – Within one week usually within a few days, I will send you a link to a gallery online.

Can we buy more prints or digital images after the shoot? – Yes I keep all of my images for up to one year on the same computer so you can order when it suits you.

I got together with my brilliant make-up artist and hair stylist to do a fun shoot Halloween styley.

Boudoir vous is the name of my website and company name for my Boudoir photography, which in the main is treating women of all shapes and sizes, ages and backgrounds to a fantastic make-over and photography session. Shelly is the hair stylist (picture below) and Chantelle the make-up artist (the girl with the cut throat) they make each client feel like a million dollars by glamming them up or giving them a beautiful soft feminine look. Then the client decide what kinds of images they want and off we go, the service is completely bespoke and unique to each person. At Boudoir Vous we pride ourselves in what we do and every client to date has left the studio smiling and pleased with the results.

We took advantage of the good weather and flew off to Holland for a long w.end, I decided to pick just one lens my 35mm Prime to take as I know I have done this in the past especially with a lens I don’t often use to just remind myself of its capabilities and strengths. I was determined to try out a bit of street photography, something I have been nervous of in the past, I never want to upset or offend anyone by pointing the camera but at the same time I do love to take pictures of people just doing real things in the moment.

Here’s a few pics from one of my product shoots, sometimes showing your products on a model can really help show them off. It also gives your customers an idea of the colour, size and look of your product against the skin.
