Cannot recommend Julian and Sue enough for our family photo shoot and our daughters 1st birthday cake smash shoot. Very welcoming and accommodating (especially with 2 kids running around) and made the shoot itself a memorable experience. Everything from the vibe/cleanliness of the studio itself to the attention to detail of each of the stages were top class! A truly professional outfit and would recommend with a full 5 stars!

Julian and Sue quickly established a good rapport with the children, promoting a relaxed setting for the photographs. The photographs are excellent and successfully capture the children's characters

Jules and Sue were excellent, made me feel comfortable and created fantastic photos that are exactly what I was hoping for!
I needed a set of up to date headshots and corporate photos, I booked with Julian Porter and they were brilliant from the outset. The studio is extremely well set up with a warm and friendly atmosphere. Jules and Sue were very friendly and made me feel very welcome and at ease. The Photos taken were exactly what I needed - I would not hesitate to recommend and I know where to go if I need more shots!
Thank you both of you!

A very well organised photo shoot both in the studio and in the woods.
The session was easy going and the results have been excellent

I recently had a photoshoot session with Julian Porter Photography and I couldn’t be happier with the results!
As a doctor, I needed professional headshots that looked warm and inviting. I was initially worried about how they would turn out, but the entire experience exceeded my expectations.
The photographer, Julian, and his wife were incredibly welcoming and made me feel at ease right from the start.
Julian’s friendly nature and professional guidance during the shoot ensured that the lighting and backgrounds highlighted my face beautifully. The final photos turned out exactly as I hoped – warm and professional.
The entire process was smooth and well-organized, making the experience stress-free.
Overall, I highly recommend this photography company for anyone looking for a professional and friendly service.
If I ever need any photos again, I wouldn’t hesitate to contact them!

Great experience doing a couples photoshoot. We were put completely at ease and it was a relaxed and unhurried session. Lovely set up with easy parking, changing rooms to swap outfits and different colour backdrops in the studio.
Thank you so much for capturing some great photos from two camera shy people!

Very calm made us feel comfortable. They also ensured the process was very smooth which meant our baby didn’t have to be out for too long.

Really great experience. Super friendly and lovely people. Super happy with the photos.

Years of experience showed through in relaxing the reticence at being photographed by some of the subjects. Dealing with an active four year old and a just awake one year old was done with skill and aplomb. The results are delightful.

Julian and his wife were amazing at making us feel comfortable at all time, and showed great skills with the kids. Nice experience and lovely pictures for a honest price, without the discomfort of having to return to select the pictures. Highly recommended!
