Question 1

Where exactly is your studio?

Accepted Answer

The Greenwich Studio is at 1A Peyton Place, Greenwich, London SE10. We're a short walk
from Greenwich rail/DLR, Cutty Sark DLR, and Maze Hill rail — easy to reach from across
South East London.

Question 2

How do families travel to you from across SE London?

Accepted Answer

Most families drive — we're a 10-minute journey by car from Blackheath, Lewisham,
Charlton, and Brockley, and 15–20 minutes from Dulwich, Forest Hill, and Bromley. Public
transport works well too: Greenwich DLR connects directly to Lewisham, and the train links
across South East London are straightforward.

Question 3

Do you do family sessions outside the studio?

Accepted Answer

Our family sessions are generally studio-led — we've deliberately built our offering around our SE10
studio because it gives us consistent professional lighting, no weather dependency and a warm
comfortable space for younger children. However, if an outdoor portrait with the family is preferable feel free to get in touch! we do offer outdoor sessions in Greenwich Park, Blackheath or elsewhere across South East London.

Question 4

How long does a family photography session take?

Accepted Answer

Our Silver session runs 30 minutes (immediate family) and our Gold session runs 1.5 hours
(more time for individual portraits, extended family or three-generation groupings). We never
feel rushed — we work at your family's pace.

Question 5

What ages do you photograph?

Accepted Answer

All ages — newborns from a few days old, toddlers, school-age children, teenagers, parents,
grandparents. Some of our favourite shoots are three-generation portraits where grandparents
are visiting from out of town.

Question 6

Can grandparents and extended family come to the session?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Three-generation family portraits are some of our favourite sessions. The Gold
session is the right package if you'd like time for both individual groupings and the full
extended portrait.

Question 7

Can we bring our dog?

Accepted Answer

Yes — pets are welcome at The Greenwich Studio. Just let us know in advance so we can
plan the floor space and have a comfortable spot ready.

Question 8

What should we wear for a family photo session?

Accepted Answer

We send a styling guide after booking. As a general rule: soft neutral tones, gentle
coordination rather than matching, avoiding bold patterns or large logos. Don't overthink it —
the natural connection between your family always matters more than the outfits.

Question 9

What if my children don't cooperate on the day?

Accepted Answer

Completely normal and we plan for it. Sessions are unhurried and child-led. We use play,
breaks, and patience — not posing pressure. Some of the best images we've ever taken came
from moments when the camera was the last thing on a child's mind. Bring snacks, bring
favourite toys, and trust us to handle the rest.

Question 10

How long until we see the photos after our session?

Accepted Answer

Your private online gallery typically arrives within 2–3 weeks of your session. You'll choose
your favourites for editing, and we'll send the final edited images shortly after.

Question 11

Are you insured?

Accepted Answer

Yes — we hold public liability insurance and equipment cover for every session.

Question 12

How long has The Greenwich Studio been open?

Accepted Answer

We opened at 1A Peyton Place in December 2023. Sacha was working professionally as a
photographer before that, having graduated from the London College of Fashion and won the
Jon Bird 2020 prize at Fish Slab Gallery, with selected work shown there for a week as a solo
exhibition.
