Abbey Studios Ltd is a renowned photography business with a rich history dating back to the 1800s. Our studio is based in Cricklade, North Wiltshire, conveniently located between Cirencester and Swindon. With over 40 years of experience, we have built a reputation for providing exceptional photography services, photography courses, and workshops to both amateur and professional photographers.

Our Services

We offer a range of photography services, including aerial photography, which has been a core part of our business since 1977. Our team of experts has extensive experience in capturing high-quality images from above, using helicopters to provide unparalleled views and perspectives. Our aerial photography services cater to a variety of clients, including builders, developers, and corporate headquarters.

In addition to aerial photography, we also offer photography training and consultancy services. Our director, Graham Light, is a qualified member of the British Institute of Professional Photography and has been working as a full-time professional photographer since 1977. With years of experience, Graham has traveled extensively, covering assignments across the country, from Lancashire to Devon, and has built an extensive library of travel images.

We understand the importance of capturing special moments, and our photography services cater to various occasions, including weddings, family gatherings, and corporate events. However, we no longer offer wedding photography services, but we can recommend reputable photographers who can provide high-quality services.

Greetings Cards and Prints

We are proud to introduce our new series of high-quality greeting cards, printed on card, sealed in cellophane, and including an envelope. These are perfect for adding personal messages and greetings. Our locally based Christmas cards are available directly from us or from the Weighbridge Gallery in Cricklade. Each card can be purchased individually, or in sets of ten, with the option to order additional copies of specific images.

Library and Stock Images

Our library contains a diverse range of images, including landscapes, cityscapes, floral, and garden images, as well as images from France, Tuscany, and New York. All images are available in print form, or, upon request, as a digital copy for commercial or business use. Many of our images are also available on alamy.com and www.photo4me.com, allowing clients to license images for various projects.

Courses and Dates

Our photography tuition, course, training, and consultancy services have grown out of numerous requests for help and training in photographic skills. Our director, Graham Light, is a qualified member of the British Institute of Professional Photography and has been working as a full-time professional photographer since 1977. Our courses and workshops cater to both amateur and professional photographers, offering expert guidance and training in various photography skills.
