Have you heard of something called a Day-After shoot?

A rather new offering and a slight differnt take on trash the dress, and a chance to get back into your dress one more time, and head out with your new husband.

With your vows complete and the honeymoon over, most brides shake down there dress, wrap it up, pack it away, and never see it again. So why not throw caution to the wind and come for a day after session with us.

Couples normally choose an area different to where they had their wedding photos taken for a whole new look.

Maybe it rained on your special day, or you didnt allow enough time for photos, it doesnt have to be the “day after”, we can do these sessions at any time whether you chose us for your wedding photography or not.

I LOVE weddings, and everyone wants great natural wedding photos that tell a story of their big day. But wouldn’t it also be nice to get some amazing shots of the two of you without having to spend all afternoon away from your guests? I offer a balance between creative documentary style and stunning portraiture.

Oh, did I mention how much I LOVE being a part of your special day.

I spend the day blending into the background capturing natural photos that tell the story of your day, but in additon to this I spend approx 20/30 minutes capturing some great photos of just the two of you.

Your day starts hours before the guests arrive and i’ll be there along side you capturing timeless images.  Starting with the bridal preparations I work right through until the end of the evening.  I put no time limits on my photography, and want to be there throughout your special day.

Check out what normally keeps me busy during your day

Your special day is exactly that, its unique, so thats why I tailor my wedding photography around you, so you get the photos  you would like.

I LOVE talking about what I do so please get in touch with me if you’d like a chat, it’s important to have a good rapport with your photographer.

My role as a wedding photographer begins before the day, as I like to meet you several times before. This helps us establish exactly what you can expect from me but more importantly starts to build a relationship which will help you feel comfortable on the day. Your wedding photographer is a big part of your day, so it’s important to choose someone you get on well with.

I’m based out of London however cover all of the UK, in particular Berkshire and the South East.

I look forward to working with you to create some amazing photos.

Prices start at £80

Our range of packages start at £80, and are completely tailored to your requirements. If any of the packages do not suit what you have in mind, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Your babies first few years fly by so quickly, so capturing these early years will be forever cherished. From bumps, to newborns, to your babies first steps these are memories that should not be forgotten. I offer several packages to capture these memories for years to come.

Whether it be capturing your babies first year, from your bump through to their first birthday, or individual/group shoots, my style of photography can capture these moments.

The result being a collection of images that you can cherish for years to come. Natural pregnancy and baby photography is becoming ever more popular, so why not get in touch today to discuss how I can begin to capture these special moments.

Displaying these cherished moments is as important as the photo itself, I therefore offer a range of albums, prints, canvases and acrylics to compliment your choice of images.

Every child/family are different and my photography reflects this. I recommend the photo shoot takes place at a location that best encapsulates your babies personality, at home is normally the best location. I tend to capture a mixture of natural images both in front of a plain background and your environment, whether this be in doors or out in the garden/local park!

The key to natural child photography is not to force a child into an unfamiliar environment, this leads to unnatural and uncomfortable photos. Your session will normally last a couple of hours, but I place no tight restrictions on this, and will work until we have the images you’re after.

Lifestyle Portraits

Check back soon for our new prices

Portrait photography is not just about capturing an image but capturing a personality. So what makes me so different from your average high street photographer? The days of having to go to a large studio are gone. The resulting pictures look staged and false. Instead I come to you, to photograph you in your own environment. If you prefer you can also come to me for a studio shoot, I’m based near Old Street, London.

Each package include a lifestyle shoot either at a location of your choice or in a studio style.

Whether you’re an established model or a complete amateur looking for a professional set of images we can help. In additonal to the basic packages below I do offer TFP/CD if it would be of benefit to my portfolio 

We often have ideas for new styles, services and products. And I always test these ideas and practice these new styles before offering them to clients. So we’re always on the look out for models that can help with these test shoots. This is an ideal way for new models to get some experience and build their portfolio, in an informal, relaxed, unpressured way.

We’re am currently actively seeking models and sylists to work with on a TFP basis.

TFP/TFCD involves you exchanging your time for a set of prints or a CD of images. The idea of the shoot is to enhance both of our portfolios, so I welcome all ideas and all types of shoot.

If you’re interested please email your contact details with a clear colour photograph of yourself together with the style of modelling you are interested in to me at chris@chrispowellphotography.com

Whether the event is formal or relaxed, my unique style of coverage provides fantastic photographs for all to remember it by

Chrismas parties, annual dinners and other party events lend well to our reportage style photography. This produces a wide variety of photographs of all elements of the evening or day, with people typically unaware that photographs are being taken. The alternative is to have a formal area for photography with lighting and backdrop, where individuals or groups can approach to have photographs taken. Both types of coverage can be provided at the event if requested.

If awards are part of the proceedings, I can either shoot the presentation or use a more formal area for after ceremony shots.

I provide a free private online gallery for your viewing, in addition I can provide prints or a disk containing high resolution images.
