Westwood Memorial Stables - Photo Backgrounds

*NEWS* The cost of the former A2 and A1 backgrounds have been reduced. Diorama backgrounds (old A1) are now £30 (was £38), Traditional (old A2) are now £20 (was £27). CDs are now available from £5.

Following recent requests, there are two new sizes availiable for backgrounds - Diorama and Traditional. These size backgrounds are done to order and are printed on high quality poster paper (not matt card like the A3 and A4 in-house produced backgrounds). See below for pricing. Please remember that the technology used for prints over A3 size increases the cost of production! :)

The pictures for these backgrounds were all taken by me, following the frustration of not being able to find suitable or sympathetic backgrounds to take photographs of my models. The pictures are of various places here in the UK.

If you would like to see examples of these backgrounds used with models "in situ" then please see my showstring or arab halters page. It could be your horse in the foreground!

All sizes are approximate and the actual print size on A4 and A3 backgrounds are slightly smaller than the paper size. :) Paper backgrounds are shipped in postal tubes. P&P is fixed at £3.50, regardless of how many backgrounds/CDs you want.
Please ask if you are overseas and need international shipping, this may cost slightly more due to the recent changes to the UK Postal system charges.

If you are an international customer I accept PayPal in £GBP (same conditionas as above). I may consider cash ($, etc) but please ask first.
