From the start of receiving the email to say we could book the shoot the staff have been fantastic. Lois was our photographer and she had her work cut out for her with my crazy bunch of 5 all very big personalities with some adhd to add to it. She was fantastic with them all friendly warm and very open to some poses and direction from the kids themselves on how to best show off their hobbies or skills. The rest of the gang were great with us before (i very much appreciated my coffee thanks dom)and after the sessions and viewing the movie and choosing our pics with the lads was also made very easy and again they tolerated the crazy kids and the 6,7 silliness.. thanks for being such a great bunch and capturing my kids in all their crazy beauty I cannot wait to see our pictures up on the wall 😀 the Richards Gang x

Izzy was awesome with Asgard, so friendly and made it really fun.

Wonderful staff and so talented. We go every year with our girls and have such a great time with a gorgeous collection built up. Highly recommend 💗

We had the most amazing experience with Venture Photography Studio in Ratby for our bump-to-baby journey! From the very beginning, the team (especially our photographer Lois) made us feel completely comfortable and special, capturing such a meaningful time in our lives with so much care and professionalism.

The maternity shoot was relaxed and beautifully styled, and when we returned with our newborn, they were incredibly patient, gentle, and attentive—nothing ever felt rushed. You can tell they truly love what they do.

When we viewed the images, we were honestly blown away. Every photo captured genuine emotion and precious little details we’ll cherish forever. Choosing our prints wasn’t easy because we loved so many of them.

We’re so grateful to have these memories captured so perfectly and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this studio to anyone looking to photograph their family’s special moments!

Kelly brought so much energy to our photoshoot, she wasn’t afraid to join in with the fun which made us feel really comfortable. We brought loads of props to give her inspiration which was so useful. The day of the shoot was worth the money in itself- the finished photos are just an added extra for us. Thank you for a wonderful experience

everyone is so friendly and received the photos extremely quickly! defo recommend

Was so anxious about them being pushy for sales after some reviews but not like that at all . Communcating product sales is understandable and everything took us into consideration. Our personal requirement and expectations from the experience were tailored too. The whole stucture of the photoshoot and everything before/after it is very clear and easy. Nice time to remember and a lovely photo to represent the memory of us and baby♡♡♡ Recommend!!! Prices take one star off but thats for the overall company decision makers to reconsider....

Great experience, beautiful photos and really nice, helpful staff. Thank you Hannah and Beth for your help and making this sessions special.

Iminee made our venture experience so warm and welcoming 😊 as a family we have never had a photo shoot done in a studio so didn't know what to expect, she was professional, friendly, very pleasant.. would highly recommend the whole experience to anyone 😊

From the moment we met Jess, we knew we were in the best hands. She was so friendly and inviting, with a warm, smiley face that instantly put us all at ease. Her passion for photography truly shines through in everything she does. She made my daughter feel like she was the most important person in the world, and somehow even managed to have my 3-month-old chuckling away — which is no small feat!
Jess really listened to our ideas and then ran with them, turning them into something even more beautiful than we could have imagined. She just got it. As a mum, you’re usually the one behind the camera, never in front of it — but she made me feel so special and included. She checked in with me throughout the session, which meant more than I can say and was genuinely heartwarming.
From the little sneak peek I caught while looking over her shoulder, I already know we’re going to have the hardest time choosing our favourites! We are so excited for our viewing next weekend.
Thank you, Jess — you truly are amazing! We can’t wait to see the final images. 💛

We recently had a photo experience with Venture Studios and I honestly can’t praise the team enough.

From the moment our photographs were taken through to the viewing appointment, everything has been absolutely fabulous. The staff were friendly, welcoming and genuinely happy, which made the whole experience feel relaxed and enjoyable.

Before our viewing appointment, the team even checked in with us, which was a lovely touch. When we arrived today we were a little early, but we were warmly welcomed and offered a drink while we waited.

Once we went into the viewing room, everything was clearly explained and any questions we had were answered. Then we were shown the video of our photographs… and I actually cried! Every single picture was amazing and I couldn’t believe how beautiful they all were. I honestly didn’t know how we were supposed to choose.

We were able to go through the photos and decide yes, no, and maybe, and there was absolutely no rushing. The whole process felt special and personal.

Thank you to everyone at Venture Studios for making the whole experience so memorable and emotional. You truly made it feel special from start to finish

Kieran did amazing with our newborn photos! He kept our baby calm throughout. An absolutely wonderful experience throughout the whole shoot and the photo viewing. Loved them all! So glad we had the shoot done 😁. Thanks to all the team.

Lucas and family

Amazing!! Such a fun experience. We had jess and liv and they were both lovely! Strongly recommend!

This has genuinely been an experience we will never forget! Not only do we now have beautiful photos of our dog and us two, but we also have wondeful memories of the time spent at the studio, for both the photoshoot and the viewing.
The photoshoot itself was a blast. Our photographer Ella really did make us and Dempsey feel at ease...and this resulted in really great photos! Ella managed to capture Dempsey's personality so well! Thanks to Venture Studio for both an unforgettable experience and amazing photos. Genuinely so grateful for the beautiful memories!

We won a family photoshoot as part of a charity competition and I think we were all pleasantly surprised with the experience. None of us had ever had something similar so it was quite exciting, if a little awkward at first.
It was a little difficult to find the studio in the first place due to roadworks outside so the short video we were directed to on their Instagram page was very useful.
Given that there were 10 of us, Steph did an excellent job in coordinating us all and ensuring that there were a wide variety of picture combinations to chose from.
I do agree that the photo packages are a bit pricey, but you do very much pay for the time and skill of the photographer to edit and bring together the pictures in a high quality resolution that you cannot produce without the expert knowledge. If you think you can do better, then don't bother with professional pictures; but we have no regrets. There are also finance options available for those who are on a budget.
We would recommend this, if only for the laughs we had while doing it, and you can come as coordinated or relaxed as you like.

Most helpful photograph Maria , beautiful photos we’ve just had a viewing experience with Meg she was lovely and helpful

Paige made us feel very much at ease and the whole shoot was relaxed. She got the photos that we were after and many more. She's clearly a very talented photographer.

When viewing the photos we were delighted with what we had to choose from, it was so difficult to narrow down but we had some amazing advice from Milton who was laid back and helpful and nothing was any trouble.

All in all, we have had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend.

All the staff is amazingly friendly and professional. You feel like part of the family as soon as you walk in. We had the fantastic Joseph do our Maternity shoot and Newborn shoot with our little JJ. Joseph has an amazing eye and the photos he took we will cherish forever. During the newborn shoot, Joseph was so attentive to JJ and I believe Joseph has a firm friend in JJ. We are booking JJ’s cake smash for his 1st birthday with Joseph as soon as we can!

Incredible experience from start to finish. I was met with fantastic customer service and thoroughly enjoyed my experience. Thank you Venture Studios Stockport

I remarkably’won’ a competition on SM for a photo shoot, fancy that! Although I knew this bit was a total con, I wasn’t bothered as I had a reason for the shoot anyway, I knew they were going to sit me down afterwards and sell me the photos. All fine by me.

In the got a lot of missed calls to book me in and told there would be a follow up call from the photographer. I had to pay a £25 deposit.

When she called I advised that the date the shoot was booked for might clash with something else.and was told not to worry just let us know an we can move the date.

When I checked the star and it did clash I called to rearrange, I was told by the photographer that it’s too late and I need to pay another £25 deposit.

When the company policy was explained to me, the day I had the call with the photographer was the last opportunity I had to change the date, this wasn’t picked up on by the photographer given I’d explained my situation.

So I’m £25 down for winning a competition.

Beware, it’s click bait, high pressure sales con job with zero customer care.

We recently had our viewing with Katie at the Nottingham branch, all the team are lovely but Katie was super helpful, super kind and really informative on what our options were and ways to make it our own! Even helped make the finial choice when we couldn’t decide between us, a big big thank you to Katie, Jordan and the rest of the team!!
