Our experience with Marta was perfect from start to finish. I was very nervous being in front of the camera as I don’t think I am photogenic, but Marta completely understood my concerns and did everything she could to make sure I was happy with the results, She is very friendly and puts you at ease during the shoot, suggesting poses and positions to highlight your best features( and disguise anything you don’t like!).<br>
Her range of props, backdrops and outfits at the studio means you can get lots of very different photos from modern to Victorian styles. She is really encouraging with the children and pets are welcome too! Marta takes a lot of photos and really makes it hard for you to choose which to buy.
She's very passionate about her work and has a wealth of knowledge and ideas to get the very best photos possible. The pictures look fantastic before editing but they become something extraordinary when she has worked her computer magic! They take on an oil-painted quality which would look amazing printed on a large canvas above the fireplace!
Finally, the prints themselves are high quality as is the packaging- the crystal engraved Pendrive is such a special touch. The service was professional from beginning to end and I can certainly recommend Marta for photographs you will treasure.
