Your Investment: Sessions, Prints and Digital Images
I’m often asked for a price list, especially when it comes to the cost of prints and digital images. I completely understand the concern—some photographers offer reasonable session fees but then mark up product prices or try to sell through high-pressure “viewing meetings” run by trained salespeople offering finance deals. Even if you love the photos, that experience can leave a bad taste.
I don’t believe in making my clients uncomfortable with hard sells. I’m not a fan of it myself, so I ensure that the process is straightforward, transparent, and pressure-free.
For session pricing, full details are available on their dedicated pages, but if you’d like a quick overview, feel free to scroll down for a summary.
When it comes to ordering the images that you’d like, there are no secrets here. First and foremost, all your images are proofed online – no sales process to sit through. You can view and order your images at 2am whilst in your pyjamas with no fear of judgement here 🙂
Outside of my baby photography club, most other portrait sessions that I offer either include your favourite image to download (in the case of the mini sessions) or your choice of your three favourite digital images at high resolution for you (when it comes to the full sessions). The cost for each type of session is listed out below.
My Baby Photography Club gives you the option of either taking a free digital from each session or choosing your favourite image from each to receive in a triple aperture wall frame at the end of the year. Pricing for any additional images that you’d like to order from each session are the same for the Joey Club as for any other type of session.
Then if you’d like to order extra prints, canvases or digital images then just see below for a list of the most commonly requested prices.

Digital Images
| Item | Price |
|---|---|
| A single digital image | £15 |
| Pack of Five Digital Images | £50 |
| All of the Digital Images from your Session | £195 |
| All of the Digital Images from your session in extra large file sizes and delivered on USB (if you know you’d like to print significantly larger than 10×8″) | £230 |
With all digital images though however you choose to receive them, I’m begging you to back them up to somewhere safe, or preferably to several safe places. I don’t keep them for more than 12 months so I won’t be able to give them to you again if you’ve lost them after this point which would just be heartbreaking.
Prints
If you would prefer to order additional hard copy prints, I have these produced to the highest quality at our professional photographic lab. See below for a list of the most commonly requested sizes.
Canvas Wraps
When it comes to hanging your photographs on your walls, the canvas wrap is by far and away my best seller! Your image is printed on high quality canvas fabric and then stretched over a wooden frame to create a fabulously simple way to display your favourite photographs. Their clean lines and lack of frame mean that they suit any room in the house, and are easy to rehang if you move house or change decor.
| Print Size | Price |
|---|---|
| Up to 10×8” | £15 |
| 15×10” | £25 |
| 16×20” | £35 |

| Print Size | Price |
|---|---|
| Up to 10×8” | £75 |
| 15×10” | £85 |
| 18×12” | £100 |

| 24×20” | £175 |

How to Order your Images
I don’t use sales meetings for any of my photography so you’ll be able to view and order any of the images from your session directly from your private online gallery. It should be pretty straightforward but here’s some guidance on how it works if you need it.
- When your image gallery is ready for you (usually about two weeks after your photo shoot), you’ll get an email with a link and a password.
- Follow the link and put in the password to gain access to your gallery (make sure you don’t pick up any leading or trailing spaces if you’re copying and pasting!)
- Your gallery will show you all of your images in thumbnail form and you can scroll down to view them all at this size or click on any thumbnail to view a full screen preview.
- You’ll be able to a little shopping bag icon in the corner of each image and clicking on this will bring up all the pricing / package information.
- You can then select what you’d like to order and the software will walk you through the process of adding to your basket and checking out online, just like you would at any online shopping portal.
Frequently Asked Questions
Payment is due when you booked your photo shoot but if it is more than two weeks away, you can choose to pay a deposit of £20. The balance is due the week before your booking.
When you buy a digital file from me, the copyright stays with me as it would with pretty much all other photographers out there. However, that’s just a legal term that I retain as the creator of the image. You’re able to print and share the image as much as you’d like to – the only things that you can’t do is sell the images or claim that you took them. Other than that, they are yours to do as you wish with.
PS – Back them up!
This is question that I get asked a lot and it’s a really tough one to answer as it depends on so many things. If I’m photographing a baby and they’re in a great mood, then you have lots of photos where if they are finding things a bit difficult then you get less. Gun to my head, if I had to offer an average image count, then I’d say that you can expect to find about forty fully edited images in your finished gallery but that can vary wildly so it’s probably not a very useful statistic for you.
Your £39.95 Baby Photography club fee includes your three sessions in your baby’s first year and the frame with your favourite image from each at the end of the year. If you’d like to order more images from your session, you’re able to do this from your private online gallery.
Absolutely! Photography gift certificates make a wonderful and thoughtful present – perfect for birthdays, baby showers, new arrivals or just because.
You can choose any session type (newborn, family, maternity, baby club, cake smash, or even seasonal minis) and I’ll create a beautifully designed certificate for you to give.
Gift certificates can be supplied as a printed version, ready to wrap and hand over, or a digital version, perfect for last-minute gifting. Each one comes with full details on how to book, and the recipient is free to choose a date that suits them.
If you’d like to order one, just click on the button below. It’s a lovely way to give someone the gift of memories that last a lifetime.
I keep your images for 18 months following your session date and after this point, they are permanently deleted so if you are purchasing digital copies, I can’t stress enough to back them up safely.
When they go online following your session, they will be on there for a month for you to order from (although I can extend that if you need a bit more time to choose – you just need to ask!)
I present all of your images in colour and then I’ll add in black and white copies of some that I think particularly suit it. Of course, if you’d rather have an image in black and white then just ask and I’m happy to switch it over for you.
Each of your images is professionally edited and so there will be a bit of a delay before you can see your images while I get everything ready for you. This can vary according to a number of factors but generally, it’s about a two week wait before your images are uploaded to your private online gallery. I’ll be able to advise you better on exact waiting times at your session.
Usually your photos are ready about two weeks after your photo shoot. That time can vary a little according to how busy the studio is but I will let you know when they will be ready at your session.
I believe in complete transparency when it comes to pricing so you won’t get any nasty surprises. You’ll already know what your session fee includes in terms of images, and you can simply order more from your online gallery if you’d like to – there’s no sales or viewing session to attend.
Here are the prices for additional digital images and prints.
About two weeks after your session, I’ll have your images edited and uploaded to your private online gallery. There’s no sales or viewing session to attend. I’ll email you a link and a password and that will take you straight to your finished images.
Any digital images that you purchase will be sized at 10×8″ at 300ppi in JPEG format as standard. This is perfect for printing up to this size or slightly larger (you have more flexibility on size when it comes to canvases as they are printed at a lower resolution).
If you know you want to print significantly larger than this, you can upgrade your digital images to be larger file sizes and they will be sent to you on USB drive – just check your gallery pricing for the options here.
One little note though – always back up your USBs – they’re aren’t the most reliable technology for long term storage.
