If you’ve been searching for something unique, personal, and genuinely different from a traditional photoshoot, iris photography is exactly that. One of the first questions I get asked is simple — how much does it cost to get a photo of your iris?
The good news is, it’s far more affordable than most people expect.

Simple, Clear Pricing
At my studio in Leigh, iris photography starts from just £50 per person for one eye. This gives you a professionally captured image of your iris, photographed using specialist macro equipment designed to reveal all the intricate detail and colour that you simply can’t see with the naked eye.
Every session is relaxed, quick, and completely safe — and you’ll be surprised just how striking your eye looks once it’s captured properly.
What Do You Get?
Your session isn’t just about taking a picture — it’s about turning your iris into a piece of art. Each image is carefully processed and refined to bring out the natural patterns, textures, and colours that make your eye unique.
Editing is done by hand, not through automated filters. This is a big difference. It means every image gets individual attention to ensure it looks clean, detailed, and visually striking — not over-processed or artificial.
You’ll receive:
- A beautifully finished iris image
- Low-resolution digital copies included
- Options to upgrade to high-resolution images suitable for printing
Extras and Creative Options
If you want something even more eye-catching (no pun intended), there are optional special effects available from £25. These include popular styles like the “explosion” effect, which turns your iris into a dramatic piece of wall art.
For those looking to display their images, high-resolution digital files are available for £75, perfect for printing larger pieces or framing.
Perfect for Individuals, Couples & Families
Iris photography works brilliantly whether it’s just for you, as a couple, or as a full family piece. Group compositions — where multiple irises are combined into one artwork — are especially popular and make for a fantastic talking point at home.
Convenience Matters
The studio is based at Spinners Mill in Leigh, making it easy to access from across Greater Manchester, including Wigan, Bolton, and surrounding areas.
- Open 7 days a week (by appointment)
- Free on-site parking
- Sessions typically take around 30 minutes for two people
Final Thoughts
For something so unique and personal, iris photography offers incredible value. Starting from just £50, you’re not just getting a photo — you’re getting a detailed, handcrafted piece of artwork that’s completely one of a kind.
If you’ve been curious about it, this is one of those experiences that genuinely surprises people — both in how quick it is, and how impressive the final results look.
