Venture South Woodford is one of the original Venture Studios that founded the Venture brand back in 2000, having previously belonged to the owners’ father, Ken Bray. This studio has been a family photography studio since 1964 and when the opportunity came to join Venture and help create the brand, it was snapped up in a flash!
Still very much a family run photography studio in South Woodford, we pride ourselves on the highest quality of customer service. We provide a great interactive experience and produce quality framed art for our customers to enjoy, cherish and smile at for years to come.
We love photographing families, children, babies, couples and pets, and our experience really shows when you book a photoshoot with us. We are the premier photography studio in East London and have had thousands of happy customers since opening over 50 years ago.
Our images will capture the spirit of who you are – not just what you look like. To experience Venture for yourself simply purchase one of our photoshoot experiences from the website.

Eleanor was brilliant shooting our little Gimli. He is an anxious boy and Eleanor made sure he was calm and enjoying himself in the process. She ensured he wasn’t stressed and gave him breaks and extra time to calm down. We were beyond thrilled with our photos, couldn’t recommend enough!
