FAQs: Lavender Field Photoshoots
How much does the Lavender Field Photoshoot cost?
Your total session fee is £xxx which is payable at the time of booking.
Please note there is an entry fee for the Cotswold Lavender site. Adult entry is £7.50 per person and children between 5 - 15 years old are £3.25 (under 5s are free).

When can I get our photos taken in the Lavender Fields?
The Cotswold Lavender Farm opens up to visitors for a limited time each summer. In 2024, the farm will be open from Friday 14th June until Sunday 4th of August. Christopher J Photographer will publish one or two dates within that period for portrait sessions.
What is included in the Lavender photoshoot experience?
You will choose your 5 favourite images following the photoshoot through your own personal online viewing gallery. We normally expect to capture somewhere between 20-30 images to choose from during the half hour photoshoot session.
Once your favourite images have been edited and made 'print perfect' you will be able to download your print-ready images from the online gallery. Your images will print up to 12 inches on the long side (and 8 on the short side).
How long does the photoshoot last?
You will have a pre-booked X minute time slot with Chris. This is a 'mini session' format, which is a great way to update your family photos in a special setting, ensuring enough time to get a variety of images and without taking out too much time from your summer days with the family!
What happens if it rains or the weather is bad on the photoshoot date?
In the unfortunate event that bad weather prevents us from taking photos at the Lavender Fields on our selected date then I will refund your full session fee.
What should we wear for a Lavender Field photoshoot?
In short, general advice for outdoor photoshoots is to make sure everyone wears something they're comfortable in (particularly the younger family members), and avoid prints & logos if possible. For the best aesthetic, aim for more muted tones: pastels, whites and off-whites will work perfectly for a Lavender Field Photoshoot.
