For weddings, popular Saturdays book up 12 to 18 months in advance — get in touch as soon as your date is confirmed. For maternity sessions, book 2 to 3 months ahead. For newborn sessions, contact the studio as soon as baby arrives to schedule within the ideal 3–18 day window.

How does the £49 deposit work?

A £49 deposit secures your date. It is not an extra fee — it is deducted from your final package price. The remaining balance is paid on the day of your session by cash or bank transfer.
