DIGITAL IMAGES
You have to order your digital images first before buying prints and other products. The reason for this is that Zac works long and hard on each individual image to make every one a hand-finished work of art.
Prices for digital images vary depending on the shoot location. You can see the prices for your chosen session by clicking book your shoot and choosing a session.
* Please note - 'Greater London prices' are higher than 'Out of London prices' due to increased costs. Prices for your digital images are shown on the book your shoot page after you select a shoot date and location, and additionally will be emailed to you before the shoot by both your swim school and Little Dolphin Images.

Price comparison
Something to think about:We are generally the same price or less than any high street portrait photographer (who is not shooting underwater). I do keep a constant check on this at regular intervals.
*We are about half to a third of the price of one of the main swim schools photography business in the UK*

Booking Fee Refunds

No commercial use of these images is permitted please.Exhibition Quality Prints
To order prints you must first add images to your personal image gallery - see prices above left.
Borders - All hand prints come with a small white border as standard ( about 3-4 mm ) to avoid finger marks on the print surface. If you do not want the borders please specify on the image notes relating to that image.
Image Area - Most images will fit all of the print sizes below. Occasionally an important part of an image will stray too close to the edge of the image area of the print you choose or even important parts of an image will be cropped off. In this case I will contact you before hand before proceeding with your order to see if you want 'all image on' and printed in proportion. This is all part of the 'hand printing' process.
Prices are for prints from 1 original image
