Portrait Studio

Cowboys and Angels’ Portrait Studio presents a unique and comfortable atmosphere in which to capture the perfect picture. Guaranteeing you the best possible experience isn’t just about top of the line equipment, we’ve thought through the whole process.

Our state of the art studio features a projector and large screen on which we play movies, cartoons or YouTube videos which is perfect for keeping youngsters happy and comfortable. We want your studio time to be natural, relaxed and fun to ensure the best possible picture will be captured. Feel free to bring any props or pets but as we are also a toy store, we have lots to amuse!

Not sure what to bring? Start off with a few different outfits, as various backgrounds are available during the shoot. For family portraits, colour coordination can be a good option. With children, its good to book a time when you think they’ll be at their best. Ideally, they should have eaten and had some exercise or other stimulation before coming in.

All of our photographs are printed on Hanhnmule FineArt Paper, award-winning paper which has been used and respected in the photography and art worlds since 1584. This renowned paper makes an enormous difference to the final result and together with Canon pigment ink is guaranteed not to fade for 75 years.
