Frequently Asked Questions

Of course! This is quite a popular request and is not an issue at all. Please make sure you mention this before the start of your shoot.

Tigz will take bookings up to 12 months in advance, so you have plenty of time to prepare for your studio shoot.

If for any reason you need to cancel your shoot, please give Tigz as much notice as possible to allow for the studio time to be re-allocated to other clients. Cancellations made at least 14 days before the date of your shoot will have their deposits returned, minus a £50 administration fee. Rescheduled shoots will also be allowed up until this 14 day cut off point, however an extra £25 rescheduling fee will apply and will be added on top of the total agreed shoot price. Cancellations with notice of less then 14 days notice will be charged 50% of the total package fee. Cancellations of less than 72 hours will be charged at 100% of the total package fee.

To make sure every client gets 100% of Tigz’s attention there are a limited number of shoots per week in Tigz Rice Studios, which means the waiting times can often be a number of weeks. By asking clients to pay a non-refundable 50% deposit upfront, it ensures that only serious clients are being reserved dates and minimises waiting times for serious clients like yourself! Tigz will only hold potential booking dates for 48 hours without a deposit and deposits are not transferable.

Tigz Rice Studios is located right in the heart of Bromley, South East London and is within 100 metres of the nearest train station Bromley North (Oyster Zone 4). The studio is located on the second floor and has disabled access. A comprehensive set of directions covering both car, bus and train routes will also be provided at time of booking. For more information on the studio, please see The Studio.

Tigz takes a lot of pride in her photography work and therefore after a careful selection process, only the best of her work is released. Due to this, Tigz regrets to inform that she will not release all the images from the shoot on DVD.

Yes. Tigz will store the images from your shoot for at least 24 months, longer if storage permits, so you have plenty of time to save for a few more images!

If you find yourself wanting more images or prints, there is an option to buy individual images or an image bundle, where you can buy multiple images at a lower price. For more information on pricing, please visit the Shoot Me page.

Please allow up to 10 working days to receive your images, although Tigz will try to get your images to you as soon as possible.

It’s a fact of life that the day we want to look our best we’ll end up with a spot on the end of our nose! Tigz is a professionally trained retoucher and basic retouching is included in the price of a session, which can include blemish removal, underwear marks and skin tone correction. However, we are all unique and should be proud of our bodies, so Tigz will not mess with the ‘real’ you - leaving in all those sexy scars and beauty spots that tell your story, unless you ask her otherwise. If you require more specific retouching including body reshaping, any additional post production work can be arranged with your permission for £30 per hour. Tigz can also offer an illustration service if required.

Tigz is happy to travel to your home or another location for a shoot. Please contact Tigz via the form on the Contact page and choose the Bespoke Shoot option when sending your enquiry. It is useful to include the location address if possible in your original enquiry to speed up the quote process.

Tigz has an ever-growing collection of costumes, jewellery, vintage furs, furniture and props which you are welcome to raid for use in your shoot at no extra cost. Tigz regrets that she cannot provide lingerie for hygiene reasons, although there is a selection of her preferred stockists on the links page of the website and can also make personal recommendations to clients if they are looking for something specific.

Tigz Rice Studios accepts BACS or Cheque as forms of payment for studio photography, as well as Paypal, Debit and Credit Card payments via the website.

Tigz offers a variety of packages, which can be found on the Shoot Me section of this website.

Although the Studio’s ethos is to embrace the bold and daring, Tigz realises that such confidence doesn’t always come easily to everyone and she will never ask you to do anything you do not feel comfortable with. Being sexy and confident doesn’t necessarily mean you have to be nude and Tigz has worked with clients dressed to impress in full evening gowns, right down to nothing but a fox stole! Each and every one of those woman left feeling fantastic and you will too.

Tigz works with a variety of clients at all stages of their career as well as enthusiasts. There is no minimum requirement to shoot with Tigz and every client will receive the same star treatment.

Once you’ve booked and paid for your shoot, you’ll have instant access to Tigz’s Parlour, an online resource centre where you’ll find helpful hints and tips on how to prepare for your shoot, how to make sure you look your best for the camera and what you’ll need to bring with you on the day. Tigz will also be in touch personally to talk through your ideas and answer any questions you may have forgotten to ask at time of booking. If in the meantime you think of anything else, please feel free to email the studio or call Tigz on 07846 567 925.

Unlimited tea, coffee and water will be available on the day (plus the occasional naughty piece of cake) although there is a small kitchen in the studio if you would like to bring food with you or have any special dietary requirements.

As well as an unlimited license on printing for personal use, the images provided to you at the end of your shoot can be used freely (with creditation) for your online portfolio, website, Facebook, Twitter and self promotion in the form of business cards. Clients are not permitted to sell any of Tigz’s images for profit or monetary gain or grant usage rights to third parties for monetary gain including flyers, newspapers and magazines without prior negotiation with the photographer. Tigz runs a mutually respectful policy and will not unreasonably withhold permission to use photos. In return for your cooperation, she guarantees to check with each and every client before using their picture elsewhere. Failure to comply with these terms and conditions of usage will result in the License To Use being revoked.

As photographer, Tigz Rice is the legal owner of all copyright of the images. The cost of your shoot is a contribution towards Tigz’s time, studio equipment, editing software and photographic expertise, which Tigz has invested a significant amount of money into over the course of her career. By purchasing Tigz’s services, you agree to the terms and conditions of her License To Use policy.

Tigz maintains a highly professional business and so you won’t find any compromising photos floating around the Internet. Only images approved by the client will ever be published.

All of your photos from your shoot are stored securely in the studio archives for at least 24 months after your shoot and possibly longer if storage space permits. If you decide at a later date to purchase more images from your shoot, please get in touch. Although all copyright of the photos is retained by the photographer, Tigz will not publish these anywhere without your permission.

Tigz’s studio has its own spacious powder room for clients to use, with ample space for getting dressed and a well-lit mirror. There is also a shower for those messy latex shoots, so remember to bring a towel!

Tigz allocates each shoot a set amount of studio time, which is limited to a specific number of hours per week. Unfortunately once you have confirmed your booking it cannot be downgraded.

As many of Tigz’s clients are performers and have their own unique stage personas, it is very common for clients to do their own hair and make up. All of the studio packages are available to purchase with or without hair and make up by the studio styling team, although you are also welcome to bring your own stylist with you. Please let us know in advance if you are bringing someone with you so we can put the kettle on.

Tigz believes that all clients should get 100% of her focus during their shoot and so apart from Tigz and the stylists (if selected) there will be no one else in the studio during your preparation time or the actual shoot.

The studio is a friendly and relaxed environment where Tigz’s goal is to make you look glamourous whilst feeling safe and secure at all times. Tigz is more than willing to accommodate a chaperone in the studio during your shoot, providing they are happy to sit quietly out of the way whilst she focuses 100% of her attention on you! If you are intending to bring someone with you please let the studio know in advance so we can put the kettle on We also ask that your chaperone is not a partner or spouse, as this can be distracting for you.

Although Tigz works with an all-female studio team, Tigz Rice Studios are fully accommodating of the opposite sex and whole-heartedly welcome men in front of the camera! To make sure you get 100% of Tigz’s attention during your time at the studio, all shoots are conducted in a professional and timely manner, making sure that shoots do not overrun. Due to this, there is no chance of bumping into other clients, male or female, during your time in the studio.
