School Proms Photography


"Thanks for all of your hardwork in ensuring the photographs were done in good time. You have a large number of very happy customers.". Ian Roberts, University of Bedfordshire


How I work
I have covered many of the leading schools in Bedfordshire for several years and have refined a very successful method of working which produces a high quality result while keeping print prices low. I do not attempt to rush to get prints made on the same night as it is impossible to guarrantee a high quality result this way. Also, it is very wasteful making prints that may not be purchased, which increases the price.

My approach is to display the photos on a laptop from which students can order the prints they like. They pay cash on the night and I deliver prints to the school, usually within a week. The advantage of this approach is better quality and better value because:

  • I don't limit the number of photos that I take per person, so there are more to choose from
  • All prints are hand made and edited, so are of higher quality than machine made prints
  • I can combine two or more images if one person blinks in a group shot (which often happens)
  • As I only print what is ordered, my prices are kept lower.
  • As I deliver prints to the school, there is no postage charge

Online Orders
I am often asked whether students can order online rather than pay cash on the night. The answer is "Yes" but I prefer to use this option mainly for repeat sales for parents etc. for two main reasons.

  • Whether or not I charge an attendance fee depends on cash sales on the night
  • Online orders are sent by post and attract some delivery and transaction charges

Prices for School Proms Photography
Often there is no attendance fee if there is a genuine prospect of good print sales, which largely depends on the numbers of students attending. When working with a school for the first time, I may request an attendance fee but agree a refund based on actual print sales. My normal attendance fee is £50 per hour, but please contact me to discuss your specific needs in detail.

Print Prices: A5 - £5.00; A4 - £8.50; Other sizes available on request.
Only archival quality Epson inks and papers are used
