However you want to remember graduation day, I'll help you capture it

I'm Leon Britton, and every summer and winter I get to photograph graduates from the University of Liverpool, Liverpool John Moores University, and Liverpool Hope University. It's one of the best days of their lives, and a brilliant one to shoot — the relief, the pride, the parents trying not to cry.

We'll shoot around the city — Pier Head, the Anglican and Metropolitan Cathedrals, Hope Street, or wherever means the most to you — built around what you actually want, not a rushed conveyor-belt version of it.

This works whether you're marking the day itself, or coming back another time once the crowds and campus queues have died down.

The Standard Campus Photo

Quick, efficient, the same for everyone

  • A few minutes in a fast-moving queue on the day
  • One shared backdrop, the same for every graduate
  • A small set of standard poses
  • Your family watching on, rather than part of the photo
A Session With Me

Bespoke, personal, and actually real

  • Proper time — up to 90 minutes as standard, plus 15 minutes for each extra person
  • A location and backdrop that means something to you
  • Real moments as well as posed portraits — the laugh, the hug, the throw of the cap
  • You and your family, photographed together — not from the sidelines

WHY BOOK WITH ME

Why Choose Me For Your Graduation Photos

01

Flexible Timing

Book me for the ceremony day itself, or a calmer session on a different day — no queuing behind the official university photographer.

02

Everyone's In The Shot

No more handing your phone to a stranger, or a family member having to step behind the camera. Book me and your whole family — including whoever usually takes the pictures — actually gets to be in them.

03

Dressed For The Occasion

I turn up smart and appropriate for the day, not in shorts and a hoodie. It's your graduation — the person taking your photos should look like they take it seriously too.

04

Local Knowledge

171 five-star reviews and years shooting this city means I know exactly where the light works and where the crowds aren't.

Frequently Asked Questions

It’s £199 for up to 90 minutes on location — every keeper from the session, retouched and delivered, with no cap on numbers. If you’re pooling together with coursemates, extra people can be added for £50 each — see below.
A £50 non-refundable booking fee secures your date — that’s one fee per session, however many people join, deducted from your final cost. It’s non-refundable because it holds your slot and turns away other enquiries for that time, but it always comes off what you owe. The remaining balance, including any add-ons like extra people or extended coverage, is due via a single online payment link on the day of your shoot, and your images are sent within 3–5 days of that balance payment being confirmed.
Yes — the session is built for it, with time for individual shots plus your family (parents, siblings, partner) at no extra charge. If you’re bringing a larger group, just let me know when you enquire and we’ll sort a bespoke option.
Yes — if you’re graduating alongside housemates or coursemates, you can add them to your session for £50 per extra person. That adds 15 minutes each, and everyone’s images are delivered together via one secure WeTransfer link, live for 60 days.
Yes — extended coverage is available for £99 per hour, pre-booked. Just let me know when you enquire if you’d like to add this on.
Yes — I photograph graduates from the University of Liverpool, Liverpool John Moores University, and Liverpool Hope University.
Not at all. I can meet you before or after your ceremony, or on a completely different day if you’d rather avoid the crowds — as long as you’ve still got your gown.
British weather isn’t exactly reliable. If it looks unworkable, I’ll either find sheltered spots nearby or offer one free reschedule to the next available date, subject to availability — your £50 booking fee carries straight over, no need to pay it again. If we’re rained off partway through, the same applies to whatever time we haven’t shot yet, and your balance is simply due on the day the session actually happens, whenever that ends up being. In the rare case we can’t find a date that works for us both, the booking fee remains non-refundable, but you’re never charged anything further.
Graduation season gets busy fast, so it’s worth enquiring early. If I can’t cover your date, I’ll happily point you toward another local, reputable photographer I trust — I’d rather you got great photos from someone else than none at all.
Images are hand-picked and edited by me directly — no proofing step — and sent within 3–5 days of your balance payment being confirmed, via a secure WeTransfer download, full-size and social-media-ready, in colour and mono, live for 60 days.
Not directly — but your full-size files are yours to keep and use however you like. Upload them to any online photo lab for prints, canvases, or gifts, and share or email them straight to family and friends.
