Hi,I was thinking about going to venture,but was put off by the prices.I ended having my pictures taken by a local freelance photographer. The pictures were superb and for a fraction of the price.If your interested you can contact her at www.bphotographed.co.uk

hi went with entire family for shoot tried to sell us entire collection for �7000!! even trid to get us to have 3 yrs credit to pay for them. felt very uncomfortable and bought 3 12x10s between us costing �345 within weeks all 3 frames had broken , they not interested. as a photographer myself( but not having the equipment at the time) this is just disgusting , i do the same style and give people the choice of exactly how they want their pics and charge �13 per 12 x 10. they set up in prime locations then have huge overheads price is nothing to do with quality but the extravegence of the whole venture thing (how do you think they pay for the wine to soften you up when you go for viewing)!!!

BE WARNED ***********

I received a free voucher to attend a studio session with my husband and children. The kids enjoyed it. We returned the following week and thats when it all went horribly wrong. Pressure sales like the old timeshare scams!! �950 for 5 photographs framed etc.

Children demanding that they wanted them, children in tears when I explained we could not afford them, given no time as a family to discuss, salesman playing on the children's needs and wants, I being the horrible uncaring mother!

Then the finance options. loans not starting for 6 months, cedit card can take the hit etc etc

I signed to get out of the studio and I now fighting them to cancel the order , I started the process two days later and guess what to date they have not responded

So its off to Trading Standards and my lawyer

So please do not make the mistake I made

We run one-day photography workshops at about 80 venues around the UK, and a number of our students have decided to attend our workshops to take their own family portrait photographs because they can't afford Venture's prices. We charge around £70 and with a bit of practice you'll be able to take all the photographs you like for next to nothing.
