Transport (client responsibility)

Because the photoshoot takes place at a separate studio, clients provide their own transport to and from the photography studio.
As a guide, the drive from Bognor Regis to the studio area is typically around 1 hour to 1 hour 20 minutes, depending on traffic.
If you don’t drive, just tell us when you enquire — we’ll talk through the best option so you still feel comfortable and supported.

Is the experience private?

Yes — privacy and discretion are a top priority. The Translife studio is a calm, confidential space and you are among friends. Your images can not be accessed without your unique password, in addition images will not be shared or copied without your expressed permission. The Photo studio is in a remote area and we have the run of the roost!

Do I get all the photos?

Photography is within a blink of the eye! Sometimes you can look Fantastic and sometimes the pose is not quite right. You can request all the images, however, in our experience we like to concentrate on Quality not quantity. Sean is excellent at capturing the real you and will ensure your photographs will thrill you. On average 30-50 quality images are the norm sometimes even more. If you wish to have all the images simply let Sean know otherwise leave it up to the expert.

How quickly will I receive my photos?

The standard turn around time we require is a week, however, we appreciate how eager you are to see them and will do our best to get them to you earlier.

Can we do outdoor photos as well?

Whilst we are at the Boscombe Studio we can use the grounds (weather permitting) to do some more casual shots. If you are interested in doing a specific location shoot then Sean is very amenable and it can be arranged at a reduced price (due to no studio hire cost). Locations in London and the Sussex region are very popular. Please email Sophie for further details.

How many changes am I allowed?

Simply put its not a case of how many outfits but do you have the energy! Experience dictates that around 4-5 outfit changes is comfortable. This is mainly due to setting up for each different outfit, it can be a background change or a shift in lighting or props. We will do our best to accommodate as many looks as possible.

I have no idea of what to do!

Not everyone is born a natural poser (sounds odd that statement!), but I think you know what I mean. Being self conscious in front of a camera is normal that is why we spend the opening 10-20 minutes doing some standard poses / exercises to help you relax and get into the flow of the afternoon. Believe me in no time you will forget there is a camera and fully enjoy the experience.
