Professional Photographers

Rob Sambrook Photography is simply myself and my partner Wendy. I have been a photographer for over 20 years and our aim is to provide a personal, creative and professional service to all our clients. We are delighted to say that we have been nominated as finalists in this years Colchester District Business Awards in not one but two categories namely ‘New Company’ and ‘Excellent Customer Service’. If you haven’t heard of rob sambrook photography before now we are based in Colchester Essex and cover all aspects of social photography including portraits, weddings and events. We also cover commercial/pr photography and are proud to continue working as Colchester United football team’s official photographer at a very exciting time for the club. Finally we provide fresh, fun and contemporary images to a large number of schools/nurseries in and around Essex.

Portraits

Whether it be a fantastic lifestyle portrait session or a studio style sitting in the comfort of your own home, rest assured rob sambrook photography will capture some beautiful and natural images of you and your loved ones.

For those that may be unfamiliar with lifestyle photography, it simply means you are taken out of the confines of a studio and back into your familiar surroundings. No backdrops or studio lights are used, just natural light and the great outdoors. A typical shoot would last a morning or afternoon and would start at your home and then move onto a nearby location to continue shooting, it really is quite an experience! By working outdoors the service is very flexible, in that a shoot can take place in a variety of locations depending on the style you wish to capture. Examples of venues could be a nearby country park, a beach, an urban/modern setting or somewhere you visit regularly as a family. There are no restrictions on who the shoot is for, it can be for a whole family, just the kids, or perhaps a mum who fancies treating herself to her very own photo shoot.

Alongside the lifestyle service rob sambrook photography also offer a studio style session for the more budget conscious client. I will come to your home with my mobile studio and spend approximately an hour photographing you and your family. The result will be a great collection of modern, fresh studio style images.

On offer as well is a more urban/magazine style photo shoot, which appeals equally to the guys as well as the girls. Any Mums and Dads out there not sure what to buy their teenagers? If you are looking for an original birthday or graduation gift why not consider commissioning rob sambrook photography for a teenage photo shoot.

Weddings

Our style is unobtrusive and observational. Most of our clients look for a candid/reportage style of photography, basically meaning the finished images look natural, unposed and relaxed. Key group shots will be covered but kept to a minimum. By keeping formal groups to a minimum I can focus my attention on shooting events as they unfold throughout the day resulting in a fantastic collection of images.

In our experience every wedding client is unique and each have their own particular vision of their perfect day. This is the main reason we enjoy covering weddings, allowing us to work closely with the bride and groom from the initial consultation, on to the pre wedding shoot and through to the wedding day itself.

The informal pre wedding shoot takes place probably a couple of months before your wedding at a location here in Colchester. It usually takes no more than an hour and it gives you the chance to work with Rob and get to know him a bit better before your big day. These images will then be uploaded to your private online gallery until your wedding day. You will also receive with our compliments a beautiful sign board to display at your wedding reception.

New for 2009 – Cherish the dress!

Ever wished you had a good reason to wear your wedding dress again? Well here it is! We are now offering our brides for the first time a ‘Cherish the Dress’ photo shoot. This fabulous photo shoot can be taken up to six months after the wedding. Why not book it for soon after your honeymoon as a special treat to yourself and keep that wedding feeling truly alive! It is a 2 hour shoot out on location where you and your dress are the main attraction. The package includes a complimentary print of your choice with the option to purchase further prints. A copyright free disc of all the images is also available to purchase.

To summarise, we do cover a wide range of photography so for example if you are a nursery or primary school wanting to embrace a fresh, fun and contemporary new style of photography then why not give us a call today. This style is proving incredibly popular as an alternative to the more traditional school photos from years gone by.

Where our social photography is concerned if you are getting married, or you are a family looking to have a portrait session, or a charity organising an event, we have everything covered.

Finally for commercial work, it could be studio style business portraits, a school needing fresh images for their prospectus, or a company wanting photos for marketing or press purposes. Give us your brief and we will deliver!
