Exceptionally perfect!! What a lovely experience we had from booking right through to the end. Vicky and Phil could not have done more to make the whole experience perfect. Vicky was so polite, kind and helpful on the phone and advised me to bring several clothes to decide on the day and maybe bring my baby in a sleep suit in case of any accidents on route (perfect advice). Phil on the day was so funny he was jumping through door ways, pulling faces, generally going above and beyond. I could not have wished for more and I felt so at ease. You feel like a big part of a close family and your made to feel so welcome and appreciated which is a rare experience now a days. I highly advise everyone don’t go anywhere else come to Vicky and Phil, you truly will be pleased and so relaxed. Thank you so much for such a perfect experience. More...

Love this place - love these people!Have had 2 photo shoots for my daughter here now. One when she was 5 and again at 8. Philip is great with the kids. Puts them at ease - has a great laugh with them and gets to know them a bit to figure out what poses will suit them. Vicky is superb too. Always so helpful with the organisation beforehand and brilliant with the presentation of the pics and aftercare bit too. A real ‘family’ business and this comes across - I wouldn’t use another company for any pics I want. I live over an hour away from them but totally worth the journeys - fab pics every time. Thanks guys More...

As much as I hate having my photos taken, I couldnt thank Vicky and Phil enough for such a relaxed experience on a family photoshoot. (Including the two kids) The shoot itself was such fun and Phil managed to get such beautiful photos of the whole family. The baby smiled his way through and the 3 year old has discovered a new love of the camera. Our viewing with Vicky was also so professional. There were no hard sales and everyone came away happy with some photographs to treasure for ever. Thanks to you both and hope to use you again soon! More...

Just picked all of our photos from our wedding and we're so pleased. Phill captured the magic of our day and has given us photos we can treasure forever. He put us at ease on the day and made it so enjoyable. He has edited the photos so that we have a range of black and white and colours. I have recommended him to so many. Thank you for giving us memories that will last forever, we can't wait to see our album! Adam and Jenna x More...

We booked a voucher from a website link for the photo sitting, but wasn't expecting much as the voucher was so cheap - how wrong were we? !?
Vicky did most of the leg work getting us booked in (even though I was being a nightmare and kept changing times and days to try to fit the family in) - but she was superb - really friendly and accommodating. When we went for the shoot itself, Philip was awesome with our 5 year old. Really put her at ease and adapted his style to suit her sense of humour to get the best shots - which they were! Absolutely superb - we are so pleased with them.
Massive thank you to both Vicky and Philip - the whole thing was great and we will definitely be back to you next time anyone needs a pic - can't recommend highly enough! Book, book, book!

Couldn't be more impressed with Philip Charles Photography. My Mother in law bought us a voucher for a photographer as an xmas present so we could have a family photo shoot our new born Son. We booked our date for the session in April for the company to go bust. Philip Charles heard about the company and our situation and offered to take the voucher and do the do the family shoot for us. All he asked was for us to purchase 1 photo which obviously was the whole point in the shoot. Our Son cried 95% of the time we were there but Phil was amazing with him and from the photos you would never have guessed our Son wasn't happy. Not 1 bad photo. £800 pound later in photos I think screams volume with how impressed we were. Will definitely be back in the future for sure. More...

My partner and I were treated to the very generous gift of a family photo shoot by my lovely auntie. Neither of us are natural models! !! So we were both apprehensive, but were made to feel so relaxed and comfortable that we really enjoyed the experience. I was genuinely close to tears when we went to see our photos, as they were just beautiful and captured our baby boy's cheeky nature perfectly. Both Philip and Vicky are lovely, welcoming people and I couldn't recommend them more highly. Thank you Philip Charles photography for memories to last a lifetime! More...

Me my hubby and our 6 grandkids all age 5 and under went along last week I thought the photographer has got his work cut out with us, but the kids were great the photographer was brilliant with them, and today I went back to view, amazing. Can't wait to pick them up. So happy Thankyou so much More...

We had a lovely experience during our photo shoot at Philip Charles Photography. I initially spoke to Vicky over the phone to book our shoot, she was very friendly and I got an instant good feeling!

Phil made us feel very welcome as soon as we walked through the door with our baby and pet chihuahua. He was very friendly and chatty throughout. He also had a lot of experience with kids being a dad himself, so understood when I had to stop to feed our baby half way through. We couldn't wait to see our photographs the following week!

When we returned, Vicky again was very chatty and friendly. We were so pleased with all of our photos and there was no pressure to buy, but she was very helpful and informative in helping us choose what we wanted.

We cannot wait to pick up our photographs!

We had a great experience. Thank you so much, we will definitely be back in the future and will recommend to family and friends!

We have never had a family Photoshoot before due too personal family matters, but in January we had our very first photoshoot with me and my children all together and it was brilliant. A very special moment for me. When we first arrived we got a lovely welcome by Phil who then carried out our shoot, he even managed too get some lovely pictures off my eldest children without filters or hands in front off their face �. The prints I brought are very good quality and look brilliant framed and on my wall. Thankyou � More...

Our recent family shoot was fantastic. We were made to feel so at ease and relaxed throughout. Being a dad himself, Phil was so patient with our mischievous boys and really took his time to capture some beautiful pictures. We returned the following week to view our photos with Vicky.....? they were all stunning!!! This made it so difficult to choose our favourite ones! Vicky was great as she made us aware of all our options and guided us through our choices without being pushy at all! She was so understanding of our budget too! We would highly recommend Philip Charles photography to our family and friends as the service was fabulous. Can't wait for our pictures to arrive now!!

I use Philip Charles Photography for all the photography needed to market the properties through my estate agency. I trust Phil and Vicky to represent my clients properties to the best of their potential, they always do an amazing job with a smile. I would highly recommend them to anyone. I have also recently had our professional headshots done with Phil and Vicky, I am a very awkward person in front of the camera but they both made me and my staff feel very at ease and the end result was fantastic!

Phil was our wedding photographer and now we only go to him for all our family photos. He is by far the best photographer I have ever met. On our last family visit we were so relaxed the photos look amazing. He has lots of wonderful ideas to make sure the kids are smiling which is always a bonus when looking for the perfect family photo. Our wedding photos were simply beautiful and the perfect way to remember our special day we even got a dvd of all our images to watch. So to end my review if you want a lovely couple to take your family photos or wedding photos make a visit to Philip Charles you won't be disappointed. More...

Philip recently photographed the Business Networking Awards at Tamworth. He was a consummate professional who did his job in a way that meant you almost forgot he was there. The finished photos are natural and stylish - both the posed winners pictures and the candid shots. I would recommend him to any business, organisation or event looking for photography services. He is a pleasure to work with. More...

Q&As

Passion! I don't mean the steamy kind, but passion for photography and passion for people. Making sure that you are pushing yourself and trying to get the people in your photo's at ease and relaxed.

How do they imagine the end product looking? Thats it, if we can start on the right track then images are going to be a guaranteed success.

Creating! I love to be creative and make things, seeing an area for photo's that know one else has is always a joy.

It just seemed like the way forward, I needed my own space to develop myself and move forwards.

I can't think of another studio around that can offer such a tailored service. I have a junior photographer, and a studio manager. We keep it professional but personal, you will always know who you are dealing with when booking through Philip Charles Photography.

Services

We are based in Tamworth, therefore in an ideal location to cover venues in Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham, Warwickshire, Lichfield, and all surrounding areas of the Midlands. Before the big day, we always arrange to meet with our couples at their wedding venue to walk them through our ideas and create a personal shot list.

The Philip Charles Photography studio has welcomed hundreds of families and individuals through it’s doors over the years. Shooting portrait photography of all ages, we have the experience to create that once in a lifetime portrait that will be hung on the wall and treasured for years to come. With our fun and relaxed approach, everyone will enjoy the experience (we even get the most camera shy to smile).

We have worked with many new family members, and have held photo shoots for babies as young as 1 week old. Recording your family’s growth through photography is one of the most satisfying areas of our work, we very often see returning families and love seeing the kids grow older.

Our Commercial Photography work is often used for marketing, advertisements, sales pitches, brochures, product placement and merchandising. With our expertise we will showcase your products and business using backdrops of your choice. If you require images to promote what you business does, we can come to your place of business or a location of your choice to create professional photographs, such as the shop front, the warehouse workforce, conferences and exhibitions. All images are supplied in Hi-res suitable for printing in media, and low-res web ready.
