Website queries
You can call our head office on 01252 728457, email us at enquiries@imagojuniors.com or fill in the online contact form.
How can I work for Imago Studios?
We are always looking for new photographers with our expanding business. Please
send your CV to enquiries@imagojuniors.com along with a covering letter.
Shoot types
Do you come to our home?
Yes, we love to work at your home where your children are relaxed. This enables
us to take natural light images (whether outside or inside), as well as studio shots.
It also means favourite toys and animals can join in and changes of clothing are
easily accommodated.
Can we have the shoot at another location?
Yes, at a location of your choice.
What to wear
What clothes would work best for the shoot?
For studio shoots we work with a white studio backdrop, where bright/bold colours
work best. We do NOT recommend white clothes or anything patterned as this tends
to detract from the picture. Choose comfortable clothing, especially for the kids
who generally feel more relaxed in old favourites rather than a special outfit.
Viewing and images
How do I view my images?
We advise you to have a home viewing so you can see our finishes in situ and discuss
any changes /combinations you want. Please note you do not have to purchase at this
time, or at any time if you do not wish to. Your home viewing is definitely not
a sales pitch!!!
Alternatively we upload your images to our passworded secure website.
We will send you a secure login and password for you to login and view/purchase your images.
When will my images be ready to view?
Approximately 7 to 10 days after your session.
I’ve lost my password and cannot access my images online
If you have given us your email address your password can be emailed to you, just
navigate to the login page and select the forgotten password option.
I would like my child’s images removed from your website
We realise that your privacy is of the utmost importance. Our website is a secure
password-protected site, and we will not share your child’s images with any third
parties. If you still wish us to remove your child’s images from the site, please
email us or contact our head office by phone on 01252 728457.

How can I place an order?
You can place an order online, at your viewing, or call

When do I need to place my order by?
We keep your images for 3 months before archiving them. Although you can place an
