Please take into consideration, that any other child attend on the photoshoot than brother or sister will be counted as separate session.

g) Client will be asked whether images can be shared on social media or website at time of session.

h) Alex Oss photography offers basic retouching. Before the session, take care of your impeccable appearance. Make sure that everyone looks clean and tidy, take care of your appearance, clean and ironed outfit, aesthetic makeup, clean hair and nails. This type of retouching and also requests about interference with the appearance of the body in photoshop is extra charged- £30 per photo.

i) Package that includes 5 photos does not necessarily mean 5 different setups/poses made during the session.

The number of setups/poses made during the session can vary depending on the photographer and the actual offer.


Each mini session has different set ups with different colour schemes. 

For the dChristmas Kitchen set up:

I suggest wearing colors like dark green, red, gold, navy, or neutral tones. I will provide Christmas props and accessories to enhance the ambiance.

For the Christmas tree market scene: I recommend light, neutral colors and winter clothing. Adding festive accessories such as scarves, hats, or gloves can bring a touch of holiday spirit to your outfit.

For Easter session I would advise wearing blue, yellow, light green, white or other pastel colours.

I take no responsibility if the colours decide to wear do not fit with the back drops used. 


Please be aware that any shoes worn during the shoot must be clean and not worn on the way to the studio.
