What is a Photo Walk?
A Photo Walk is a guided walk for a group of people who like taking photos or who want to learn more and practice their skills in an informal environment. It's also quite enjoyable for people who like walking, chatting and meeting new people.

It’s not a training course, but attendees can pick my brains as we walk (and share ideas with each other too). The aim is to have a bit of fun, take some photos, learn something new and meet some new people. A maximum of 10 people attend each walk, making it a small enough group for us to focus.

Each walk has a different topic and route, so it's something that you can attend just once or every month if you like.

If you would like to join one of my monthly Photo Walks, please get in touch to book your space on 07909 177 049 or email info@victoriab.co.uk.

The cost is £10 per person, payable in advance.

If these dates do not suit you, please get in touch about arranging another date with me. I'm happy to add dates to the diary, provided you can get a group of at least 8 people together. If you have specific locations and walks in mind, please call to discuss.

Customers who purchase the CD containing all of the digital images from their shoot, receive £100 towards products of their choice or a photo slideshow, set to music, for playback on their computer and smartphones.

The CD purchase makes sense for people who are unable to choose their favourites, want all of the photos and want to be able to make copies for family & friends.

Here is one I have just received today, for a family who have been enjoying their photos on the CD for a couple of weeks already now.

This morning's photowalk was focused on Architecture. We were looking at perspective and composition in particular, experimenting with angles. Here are a couple of photographs from this morning. The weather was perfect.



If you would like to attend a photowalk, please get in touch.

While my corporate photography packages start from £160 when I travel to my customers, many local business owners have taken advantage of my special offer of a headshot for £50. If you can travel to me in Kingston or meet me at a networking event, then £50 will cover your session, including a digital image.

I currently network weekly in Walton-on-Thames/Weybridge and this is one example of a business owner who has taken advantage of the special offer. Get in touch with me for more information or available dates.

The baby photography competition has now closed. Thank you to everyone who entered and congratulations to Sarah from Cobham. I will be photographing her and her 6 month old baby boy soon.

Give your man a Valentines Day Gift that he will love! Get in touch to find about pricing and what to expect.

If you received a gift voucher a present this year, feel free to give me a call to talk about your options. You might have been given the photo shoot, or perhaps the shoot plus some digital images or money towards framed products. All vouchers are valid for 6 months, so while there is no hurry to book straight away, you might want to plan ahead, as my weekend bookings tend to fill up in advance.

Many of my customers decide to buy the digital images, particularly at this time of the year, as this allows them to print and frame for family christmas presents.

For those purchasing the whole shoot on a CD, priced at £495, there is £100 towards any products. Though I can't guarantee delivery before christmas on orders made after 8th December, I am working on orders this week that will almost certainly be with my customers before christmas.

I'm fully booked this week and working hard to get all of my customers photos ready for christmas. We are now approaching the deadline for guaranteed pre-christmas delivery of frames and products, but if you would like photos before christmas, there is still the option of digital images.

Most of my customers choose to buy some or all of their photos on a CD, and provided orders are placed and paid for by the 22nd Dec, I can guarantee christmas delivery, as I will deliver to your door.

Please get in touch if you would like to discuss the options.

I am busy working across Surrey in Kingston, Weybridge, Cobham and surrounding areas in the next few weeks.

My weekend availability is sometimes limited. If you are able to have a mid-week photo shoot, then I usually need much less notice. Give me a call to find out about availability or to just hear more about the options.

I've updated my galleries recently, so click on the link to have a look at what i've been up to.

I offer professional baby photography in the comfort of your own home. A studio session or natural light session at your home costs £40 mid-week and £60 at the weekend.

But, if you know other mums, you can share the session fee and both save some money. Both babies will each have their own session (mums and dads also welcome) and there is no difference in the amount or quality of photos taken when sharing a session.

If you don't have someone to share the session with or would prefer an individually tailored session, then the Baby's First Year package may be of interest to you.

If you are stuck for ideas for a special Father's Day gift, consider a family photo shoot. Every Dad would surely love some beautiful photographs of their children. There are photographers up and down the country who will be able to help you with this.

Maybe you have thought about getting photos done and framed ready for Father's Day, but it is just a couple of weeks away now. It's not too late though... You could buy a gift voucher and have the photos taken as a family at a later date. Or you could have the photos taken now and let Dad decide which he likes best.

I personally cover Surrey, London and the surrounding counties, but if you live elsewhere, just google local photographers. You might want to consider a "lifestyle" shoot in the local park for some really natural shots, particularly now that the weather has finally turned sunny.
