This music photography package is a professional, bespoke session to create images for press promotion and for use on social media & websites.

The photography session is approximately 2 hours which includes any prep & lighting.

The amount of actual shoot time depends on your ideas & how quickly this can be set up.

I am also happy to shoot on location if that’s the idea.

Music Promotional Package price  £280 including VAT

Includes 4 selected images.

Additional images can be purchased at £24/ image

Simple photoshop processing, grading & editing of your chosen images is included in the price.

More complex retouching starts from £40/hour.

The images can be supplied in colour, black & white or a mixture.

I don’t charge for colour variations or black & white versions of the same image.

Share Your Ideas and Concepts Ahead of Time

 

If you have a specific idea or concept in mind, let me know before the session! This gives me time to plan the lighting, choose the right background or location, and suggest any adjustments to make your vision come to life. A mood board is super helpful, too, if you have a general style or vibe you’d like to achieve.

Selecting and Receiving Your Images

 

While I can provide a quick edit of “selected” images on the day, I recommend taking your time to pick your favorites. After the shoot, you’ll get access to a secure, password-protected online gallery where you can preview the images at your own pace. Once you’ve made your selections, the final edited high-resolution images will be delivered to you via file transfer.

Clothing/style & what to bring

Think about the clothes & style you want to portray & bring a small variety of outfits.

Make sure you feel comfortable with your choices or perhaps it’s what you normally wear when performing?

Make sure you bring any props you might need.

There is a clothes rail, steamer & iron in the studio.

Hair & makeup artist can be arranged but this will be at an additional cost

"Colin is a phenomenal photographer….he could not have made me feel more comfortable. Throughout the shoot, he remained conscious of my artistic visions and captured them perfectly, whilst gently directing me throughout the process.“
