A fun, friendly and relaxed experience
As you will see from some of the children photoshoots images, the kids really love showing us what they do when they come to visit us at our Studio in Hebburn, Tyne and Wear. To view last years full gallery click here.
Why should you treat your children to a photoshoot?
We love to welcome all children between 0 and 16 years old into our photography studio, to take part in our competition. For us, we aim to let your children have fun in front of the camera. We let them choose their own outfits, let them wear their favourite jacket, hat, cap or shades as the more comfortable they are the more fun they will have.
We are pretty centrally located and we love to see families from all over the North East. From locations such as Hebburn, Newcastle, Gateshead, South Shields, Sunderland, Washington, Chester-Le-Street, Seaham, Hartlepool, Middlesbrough, and Durham to name a few who have come to visit us in our studio. But we have also had families visit from further afield as well from Leeds, Bradford, Manchester and Blackpool and they all loved their family and children photoshoots with us.
We have an excellent reputation with our customers. We like to ensure your children are happy and relaxed while we capture their wonderful poses and funny moments. We try to keep sessions as relaxed as possible, although we do sometimes need to guide arms and legs into positions. We aren’t being bossy, just trying to get the best position that your children will be comfortable in.
Win 1 of 3 cash prizes for you or your family
We are offering you a fantastic opportunity to win one of three cash prizes, whilst helping us raise funds for The Charlie & Carter Cookson Foundation & 4louis who are two fantastic local North East charities.
Win first prize and you could enjoy a generous £100 to spend on yourself and your family, second prize you could win yourself £75, and for third prize you could be taking home £50.
We ask for a £10 donation to enter which goes to our two charities 100% and our past customers have loved that they are helping such an amazing cause. At the end of the year when the competition closes the two charities will receive an equal split of the donations.
