A photo that makes you laugh or smile or brings back fond memories, maybe a photo
that's been handed down or sums up an amazingly precious moment in time...
Always fun shoots - indoors or outside - just go with it !
Dress up or down - its up to you - we'll have some fun
Finding their feet - forming their opinions - a fabulous learning time for everyone
Bring them along for their own photoshoot - let them show off their style
We are celebrating 35 incredible years of capturing cherished memories and as we look back on decades of creativity, passion, and dedication, we want you to join us in this celebration of love, legacy, and photography.
2025 also coincides with David & Sue’s 35th wedding anniversary - and we want to mark this special year and these special anniversaries by fundraising and giving back to our community by raising funds for Bedfordshire Hospitals.
In celebration of these 35th anniversaries, Oakley Studios is excited to be launching “Big 35” once again partnering with Bedfordshire Hospitals for a special fundraiser!
Throughout 2025 and in celebration of our Big 35, we will be supporting Bedfordshire Hospitals NHS Charity with purchases from their Wishlist.
Celebrate your family with a photoshoot and help us to help them.
As a thank you for your booking, we’ll gift you a 6”x4” mounted image of your choice with your order.
Tell us about the celebration - what’s the special occasion
Tell us about your family - who is coming along ?
Have fun together…
indoor or outdoor shoot, let’s talk about it. A family meet up like no other!!
A tangible legacy celebrating family which becomes more precious as time moves on.
Designed with you in mind, giving the best quality, hand selected, hand finished (and only things we fell in love with) just for you
It can be scary doing something for the first time, especially when it's something as important as your family and the ones who mean the most to you. We know most people haven't been lucky enough to have a photo session before and worry about how it all works, and importantly how much it will cost
We don't choose our products, you do, over decades our customers help tell us what they love the most and so that is what we offer, no hidden catches, no cheap rubbish, no confusing terminology, and most importantly nothing to worry about just beautiful products and prices you can see
No matter what the occasion or celebration is (or just an excuse for a fun shoot) we have over 35 years experience and can create something just for you, so if you don't know where to start... just give us a call and let's have a chat. Here are some of our collections but we have plenty more available so if you are looking for something you don't see here - please don't hesitate to ask.
Prices start from £99 for a beautiful hand finished mounted desk size print & our print collections start from £198

WE LOVE OUR WORK
Over the last 35 years, we have taken a lot of photos!
It has been amazing for us to have been included in our clients lives - shooting their weddings, their growing families, their children growing up. Some of our very first tiny babies are now coming back to us with their babies - mindblowing - just like to say we started out when we were very very young!!!!
Along with all the family and occasion photoshoots we offer magical fairy theme shoots and fun filled Christmas shoots.
We have a fabulous garden studio based at our home. Being out of town gives us a tranquil studio environment which puts everyone at ease ready for relaxing family photoshoot. Easy to locate with free parking to boot. What's not to like?
We have a modern purpose built garden studio allowing us the freedom to offer different backgrounds to suit both casual and formal photoshoots.
Outdoors ? We love using our special “outdoor studio”, and have developed several places in our garden for this. Children in particular love the freedom outdoors love being able to let off steam. Our new children's hedgehog seats are a definite hit.
There is always a "Plan B" if the weather is not playing ball on the day .

Time flies by so quickly, especially as our children grow up right before our eyes. Toddlers are like little tornadoes, eager to explore and experience everything, while teens are developing their own interests and personalities.
That's why it's important to capture their unique personalities and hobbies with a special photoshoot. We'll have fun together and create images that showcase their individuality. Don't forget to bring a change of clothes so we can try out different styles and looks.
For pre-teens, we suggest letting them choose their own outfit to really showcase their personal style. It might be risky, but the results will be worth it!
For older teens, why not capture them dressed up to the nines in their prom outfits?
As photographers, we understand the value of capturing these precious moments before they slip away. Let's make sure you have the photos you'll treasure for years to come.
We hope you will fand the answers you need here, if not please do get in touch...
We are based on the Luton & Dunstable borders, out of town and really easy to find with free parking.
Our studio hours are generally Wednesday through to Saturdays 9.00 a.m. till 6.00 pm. However, due to the nature of our work and the flexibility required these may vary- all visits to our studio are by appointment only.
We live in a residential area so we ask that you park close to our own drive keeping our neighbours driveways clear.
We will provide full details to you nearer the time of your appointment, we also have easy access but please let us know if anyone coming along has any mobility issues and we will do our best to help.
This depends on the style of your photoshoot but generally smart casual outfits colour co-ordinated with the group. We have loads of experience in this department so please just ask and we'll help you and will help you. We also have a style guide we can send out to you.
We specialise in multi generation families in our studio, the record is 26 at one time. We can use the garden area (weather permitting). It’s a good idea to have a chat about this when you make your booking.
We always say - enough - It's something we cannot put a number on!
Seriously it always depends on how many people are involved and how many different combinations are required. Just make sure if you want a special image taken that you let us know before the shoot.
Give us a call so that we can talk about your session. You can either then book and pay for your collection, if you know exactly what you want, or you can simply pay the booking fee of £35 to secure your booking.
WHATEVER YOUR CELEBRATION
Laughter and generations celebrating together, it's like nothing else
First smiles, First giggles, first steps, each can be treasured with Watch Me Grow
Those tiny fingers and teeny tiny toes.
Capture special details of those early days
