THE EXPERIENCE

You've seen the plans...
Now Meet the Deep Dark Wood

This is no ordinary portrait session. Your child won't just sit and smile - they will step into the pages of a living storybook. Guided by their imagination and a custom Explorer Pass, they will venture deep into a magical woodland setting.

As they search for hidden creatures and follow the winding path, we capture authentic moments of wonder. The result is a collection of emotional, timeless heirlooms that celebrate the magic of their childhood.

This isn't just a

Photo Session

Your little explorer will step into the Deep Dark Wood, receive their Explorer Pass and set off to discover the characters hiding amongst the trees.

I'll follow their lead, capturing the excitement, curiosity and little moments along the way.

No forced smiles. No pressure to pose. Just an adventure to remember.

PREPARING FOR THE WOODS

Adventure
Details

Everything you need to know to prepare for the woods. We have carefully considered every detail to ensure your child feels entirely relaxed, engaged, and ready to explore our magical setting.

What ages is the adventure suitable for?

The Deep Dark Wood Adventure is designed for little explorers approximately 18 months to 7 years old.

The experience is particularly lovely for toddlers and young children who enjoy stories, exploring and imaginative play. I will always work at your child's pace, so there's no expectation for them to sit still or "perform" for the camera.

If you're unsure whether it's right for your child, just get in touch and I'm very happy to advise.

What should my child wear?

Think cosy woodland explorer!

Natural, earthy colours work beautifully with the set - creams, oatmeal, olive, sage, rust, mustard, brown and soft neutrals.

Dungarees, corduroy, knitted jumpers, simple dresses, tights and little boots all work wonderfully.

I'd recommend avoiding bright colours, large logos, neon shades and heavily patterned clothing, as these can distract from the woodland setting.

Once you've booked, I'll send you a simple styling guide with plenty of inspiration.

How long does the session last?

Each adventure lasts approximately 20 minutes. This provides plenty of time to explore the woods, meet the characters, and capture beautiful, natural moments without rushing.

Please allow a little extra time around your appointment for arriving and getting ready.

Can siblings attend the same session?

Absolutely!

Siblings are very welcome to share an adventure together, and I'll make sure we capture photographs of them individually as well as together.

The session is designed to work beautifully for siblings, whether they're exploring the woodland side-by-side or discovering different characters along the way.

The booking fee covers one child. If you're bringing siblings, please let me know when booking so I can make sure the session is suitable for everyone.

What if my child is shy or anxious?

That's absolutely fine - there is no pressure to perform for the camera.

Some children will run straight into the woodland adventure, while others need a little time to look around and take everything in.

I'll follow their lead, using the characters, props and Explorer Pass to encourage natural interaction rather than asking them to pose.

You don't need to worry if your child doesn't immediately smile at the camera. Some of my favourite photographs are the quiet, curious moments in between.

What is included in the booking fee?

Your Deep Dark Wood Adventure includes:

A 20-minute woodland photography experience
Your child's own Explorer Pass to complete during the adventure
A little woodland-themed treat bag to take home
One professionally edited digital image
A private online viewing gallery

The booking fee is £99, with the Founding Explorer price of £79 available until 23rd August.

Your viewing gallery will also give you the opportunity to purchase additional photographs and beautiful printed artwork if you'd like to preserve more of the adventure.

Can I purchase additional photographs?

Yes. Your booking includes one professionally edited digital image, and once you've seen your gallery you'll have the option to purchase additional images if you'd like more of your child's adventure.

Additional digital options include:

1 additional image - £75
3 additional images - £125
Full gallery - £249

There will also be a selection of beautiful printed artwork and keepsake products available, so you can choose the option that works best for your family.

There's absolutely no obligation to purchase anything beyond what's included in your booking.
