Q. Do you have a studio?
A. Andrew Jacobs Photography work from home. We have a small room at the back of our house which when called upon, can easily turn into what we call our studio. We call it STUDIOCF23 . Unfortunately because of the size of the room we can only Photograph Individuals, Pets, Couples and small Family Groups. STUDIOCF23 will soon have a web page page of its own to explain more. An example. Grandparents, Parents plus four or five Teenage Children can take up as much room as nearly ten Adults. Its possible, but give us a call, you never know we could even squeeze the other Grandparents in as well. We also have a waiting room if things get a little congested.

Q. We would like to have a Family Portrait. What should we wear?
A. Think how the Portrait will be displayed or is going to be framed. Maybe think casual or formal? Rules can be broken but Dad in a suit and Mum in jeans maybe won't go so well, Dad in a red shirt and Mum in a pink top ?!?! So with extended Family shoots get together before and dicuse things.
