Venture Photography Studios Reviews 

After a very fun bump shoot, we went back with our little girl for newborn shoot with Katie. She was soo lovely and knew exactly how to make newborn pose. She took care of all of the little details and made sure our girl was comfortable and happy during the session. The viewing experience has been soo emotional. To see the journey from bump to bubba was magnificent. Thank you Katie for capturing most special memories for us to look back.

Very friendly and accommodating staff. Photos turned out so well despite my baby screaming her way through! Couldn’t recommend enough!

The whole experience was amazing, Meg made me and my husband feel so good when we did the bump session and then we came back with our baby girl for her newborn session which gave us some lovely photos that we will cherish forever. The studio is conveniently located with plenty of parking available on the road or in the mall across the street, its well maintained and everyone treated us so nice and kindly. Would recommend to anyone wanting to have professional photos with great results as memories. Thank you to Meg, Callum and Jaz.

Amazing and friendly staff! Highly recommended! I just want to thank the photographer Abbie who was able to take some beautiful photos (despite my newborn screaming the same place down😂), I was really worried that we wouldn’t be getting any nice photos but they turned out amazing! Another thank you to Iminee to all your help with selecting our beautiful photos and going over the packages! We cannot wait to get our photos!

It was a great photoshoot i would definetly do it again.The women who did the shoot was great with my grandson and kids and got us all to laugh.The person who showed us the photos was lovely aswell he was amazing with my grandson and allowed us to see all the photos in our own time and didnt rush us.Highly reccomend it to anyone who wants lovely photos.

Let me save you time and from being pressured for a price that is very unreasonable. I wish I read the reviews prior to the shoot.

Our photographer was lovely. Even though our son was very active, she was still able to take good photos. She made our experience fun and was very open when we asked to stop the photoshoot since our little one was already losing his attention span.

But!! The pricing is just ridiculous. £800 for digital pictures on a usb thats the lowest price. For it’s worth, the pictures were not even in high resolution. If you want a high res you pay £1000. Yep that’s their minimum.

We got gifted a voucher with one print. And with that, it doesn’t even come with digital version of that one same picture. You have to pay extra and they make you use your deposit and cancel the print for a digital photo. It takes within 6 weeks before you receive that one photo. And it is not even high resolution.

Day light robbery it is! I wouldn’t recomment at all.

Great experience, from shoot day to viewing of the photos. We had a family photo shoot and went from being on edge, as it is typically not ‘our thing’, to totally relaxed and getting so many amazing photos that it was hard to choose from. This is genuinely down to our photographer Ben as he was able to quickly put us at ease which enabled the kids (and us) to really have some fun with it.

Dan our photographer was great at the photoshoot, especially with our son Oliver! He made it fun for him and we all had a great experience. During our viewing, Liv shown us our amazing photos! Liv was so friendly and made the viewing experience fab! We have photos we can cherish forever and we can’t wait for our frames to arrive!

Thank you both!

We had Ben as our photographer for bump to baby and he made the whole experience so amazing! We were quite nervous and he made us feel so at ease. The quality of his work is stunning and we are so in love with our photos ❤️ highly recommend x

Our photographer Ella was absolutely amazing with our newborn daughter during our family shoot. She was the first stranger who held our little girl and we felt completely comfortable with her, she was great at comforting Emily when she needed it and respected her needs. The shoot was made fun and heartwarming, our ten year old even enjoyed himself. We had our viewing today of all the photos she captured and I cannot thank her enough, they made me cry! Would 100% recommend this studio.

We had a wonderful photographer, Eleanor and she made us feel really comfortable and relaxed. We saw our images today and absolutely loved the photos she captured of us!
Would strongly recommend booking with them. No pressure to buy just transparent and open conversations which we found really helpful. Defo recommend

Our session with Ben, was really good and had so much fun. I entered a competition back before our little boy Leo was born and we were lucky enough to win a newborn photoshoot. It was the first time we’d ever been in a photo studio and Ben looked after us so nicely. He bonded with Leo on a great level and we could see that Leo was at ease which put us at ease and calm too. Ben discussed how the session was going to pan out and what we’d be doing. He’d explain what he was doing and produced the cutest photos ever. I’d be honest and say we had high expectations, judging by what photos we’d previously seen on social media and Ben did not disappoint. In fact, the photos were even better than we had imagined. We were in awe of every single photo and it’s thanks to Ben & winning the competition, we now have lifetime memories we can treasure and look back.

For those who are on the fence about whether to have a session or not, just do it. You will not regret it and the quality really is top of the top.

Thank you Ben so much!

hannah was amazing during our photography session with our newborn and dog! such beautiful photos! she is a very talented photographer and editor! we had such a wonderful experience, i would definitely recommend!

Great shoot session for my bump and newborn shoots. Caitlin and Beth were awesome. Venture photography is it for us.
Can’t wait to do the one year old project with them.

Scam of a company ‘WINNER’

I “won” a competition with Venture for my cat to have a photo taken. Shortly after, I was bombarded with phone calls asking me to pay a deposit, which I was clearly told was fully refundable.

After speaking with friends and family, they warned me that everyone seems to “win” these competitions and that they’re not actually free — you’re pressured into buying very expensive photo packages. Because of this, I decided to cancel the whole thing and requested a refund.

Within the 48-hours before the appointment would be taking place I explained that I wanted to cancel as the experience wasn’t truly free. The representative admitted that yes, it isn’t free, said they understood, and told me a refund would be requested and processed within a certain number of working days.

However, after checking the terms and conditions myself, I discovered that no refund is given unless you complete the photo shoot, which directly contradicts what I was told on the phone.

This feels extremely misleading. They must make a lot of money from people falling into this trap, and it’s honestly shameful. Transparency is seriously lacking, and I would not recommend this experience to anyone.

We had been with Venture studios before for a newborn shoot with our first child and really wanted to obtain a similar piece of wall art for our second baby.
This time round we went in with a 2 year old toddler and a newborn, a little more challenging. Our newborn was calm and cooperative, but our toddler was not that straightforward! Hannah and Steph have done an amazing job though, seizing the moments for good photos, playing along with the toddler, having a break, thinking out of the box, and being very patient throughout.
It all resulted in a nice set of wonderful pictures, true work of art, and we’ve got some beautiful keepsakes for our wall!
If we ever have more children, we will definitely come back again :)
Thank you very much!

Absolutely loved our newborn photography session with Eleanor. Really enjoyed the experience and the photography results, and very excited to host the images at home. Also to mention, we were very impressed with how Eleanor handled our baby throughout the session. It was clear that she has dealt with many babies and we appreciated that she was very empathetic, compassionate, and flexible to ours and our baby's needs. We were put at ease and had no worries at all, also appreciating Venture Studios providing the time slot to allow baby feeds and changes included. Would happily recommend to others!

Had an incredible experience both for our photo shoot and cinema experience to look pack at all our pictures.
We felt so relaxed by both Kelly and Ricky during our time.
Kelly had done an amazing job in doing the shoot, asking our interests and getting the most perfect images for us. To be followed by Ricky in talking though all our options of photo display, frames, styles and how best to place things.

Would highly recommend. We cannot wait to see the finished products in place

Dom and Lois were absolutely awesome! We didn’t know what to expect from the shoot but they made us feel so comfortable and it was so much fun. The took some epic shots and edited the pics brilliantly. No hard sell and lots of lols! They didn’t even flinch when our dog Elvis bobbed on the floor 🤣

Absolutely amazing experience. Jess was incredible with our son and Liv was brilliant at our viewing. 100% recommend
