A different present to give...
With our Christmas Special Offers things are very busy at the moment, however that does not mean that we will not honour these offers in the future.
A popular choice at the moment is to purchase the Portrait Sitting for £25.00 whilst it is on offer during October & November, then give the very attractive card voucher to someone as a gift to book in at a time of their choice.
Give us a call on 07771 745971 or email info@dartmoorstudios.com to discuss or purchase your gift vouchers.

If you go down to the woods today...
Little did people out walking their dogs expect to come across a bride with a chain saw a few saturdays ago...Kerenza decided she wanted to do something a little more adventurous that the norm so we came up with the idea of going in to the woods with a chain saw for some photos - well it's called Extreme.
After some basic training she was let loose while Ross captured the photos & Edwin did the video/behind the scenes images. Check out the photos on the main site & the movie below:
Extreme Wedding Photography - Behind The Scenes...
Ever wondered how we get 'that' shot?
Well over the past few months Edwin Sudds has been following Ross Matthews to capture some behind the scenes photos from the Post Wedding or aka 'Trash The Dress' photo shoots.
A variety of these images can now be seen on the main website @ Behind The Scenes as well as some video footage that is shown below.
We have many more even more exciting & some extreme shoots coming up later this year so keep an eye on the Blog to find out more...
A different way of looking at Family Portraits
Our portraits can be formal if that is what you are after but we prefer to be far more relaxed & capture the real you.
Once you have chosen your images though comes the design stage & rather than simply have a single image many families are choosing to have a multiple image print. Ideally choose 3, 6 or 9 images for you design & then leave it to us.
We will proof your images & change as much as you want us to over the designing stage for as long as it takes until you are more than happy.
Its definitely a different way to do & looks superb for real impact if you are think about going large. Below are a couple of recent examples:
Studio Shoot or Location Shoot?
When it comes to choosing where you want ot have your Portrait Sitting done, there are a few things to think about.
The obvious choice is the studio as it is part of the experience & can be very exciting, however for young children & babies it can sometimes be terrifying! Terror does not lead to pretty picture...
So at Dartmoor Studios we have a state of the art portable studio that we can set up in your home, perfect for keeping everyone calm & relaxed so that we can make sure we capture the real you. In terms of quality you would never know it was done in your front room - try to guess which images on the website were done this way, you would be surprised.
There is a third choice though - on location. If you would like your images done at an outdoor location of your choice then this is not a problem - park, beach, on the moors, it does not matter as we have all the portable equipment to ensure that quality photographs are captured where ever we go.
For more details about this or to discuss any shoot you are considering please get in touch on 07771 745971 or info@dartmoorstudios.com

Digital Only Weddings?
Whilst the majority of couples choose to have their images displayed in an album, as well as some sort of DVD presentation, more & more are thinking about 'digital only' outcomes.
At Dartmoor Studios we have been offering this sort of product for some time & are happy to provide whatever you wish on either CD or DVD. However there can be some confusion over copyright - as in do you have the right to print, copy & email these images as you wish?
The simple answer is no - unless you have asked to purchase the copyright of your images then they remain the property of the photographer & Dartmoor Studios.
If you do want to purchase the copyright to all your images then it is a simply process so please get in contact whether it is for a future date or a wedding/portrait shoot from the past.

Christmas Specials Offers
Christmas is coming round again & even though its only October it is time to start thinking about the presents already...
To help with the cost of Christmas, start thinking about a Portrait Sitting now - Allowing you the time to have your shoot, choose your images & still have plenty of time to decide about framing & canvas options.
For that reason we have dropped the price of a sitting to only £25.00 including a FREE print & then we'll also give you 10% off your purchases!
You can even pay monthly if that helps to spread the cost but don't miss out - this is one of our busiest times of year too.

Be Prepared... Studio Quality Whatever The Weather!
When it comes to wedding photography or any sort of location shoot - you have to be a boy scout! That's why we can make statements like 'studio quality images - whatever the weather'.
People sometimes ask what does that mean & what sort of equipment do you use?
We have always prided ourselves in being able to use cutting edge equipment, both in the studio & on location, whatever the weather. So where we go, so can our portable studio if necessary - whether that's your home, a lovely pictureque pub on Dartmoor, Plymouth City Centre or the middle of the woods somewhere miles from civilisation.
We use a couple of Nikon D3s to ensure the highest quality possible in camera, a combination of Bowens & Profoto studio equipment & then Adobe's top of the range software packages once back in the digital darkroom.
