STANLEY BAKER STUDIOS LIMITED

ABOUT STANLEY BAKER STUDIOS LIMITED

Stanley Baker established a school photography business in 1964 with his business partner, George Wheatman. They timed it well, just as colour school photography was becoming widely available. The business grew steadily over the next twenty years but in 1984 the partners went their separate ways. Stanley Baker Studios Ltd was set up with only 6 employees and a small office in Colchester.

This continued steady growth has been achieved by consistently delivering a reliable and professional service to schools and by taking much of the administration away from already busy school staff with our on-line shopping site. Around 65% of parents now order on-line and this is only expected to rise, meaning fewer orders passing through your school. We are approved suppliers of school photography with Sims and provide names data for all school administration systems. This data also enables us to quickly and efficiently identify pupils in the event of a parent enquiry. Our customer service is very important to us — and you!

Not only do we have the largest selection of products of any school photography company but we also offer the widest choice of photography styles as well. We provide traditional portraits with a choice of background colours, formal class groups and whole school groups of up to 500 children and staff. On the more unusual side, we have contemporary style school photographs, shot in black and white, in the class room itself (very arty) Then we have the fun and visually appealing white background class groups and studio style portraits. Whatever your taste in school photography, or if you just want to try something different for this year, we have a style to match.
