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 STUDIO CF23 . Unfortunately because of the size of the room we can only Photograph Individuals, Pets, Couples and small Family Groups. STUDIO CF23 will soon have its own website 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.
