Mouse About Town is owned and run by professional photographer, Gill Thomas. Gill sets herself apart from other photographers with her creative take on life, imaginative style and fun filled approach. In 2004 she graduated from Central St Martins, London, with a fine art photography degree. She now lives in Cheltenham and works on location in Gloucestershire and in her studio, aptly named The Mous

ehole. The Mousehole was launched at the end of 2014. You can expect a quirky but cosy space, where children feel immediately at ease thanks to low slung OSB shelving, jam packed full of brilliant car boot finds and vintage props. Kids (and adults!) have great fun rummaging through it all. There's also a vintage children's boutique if you're looking for something a little different. In addition to a relaxed and informal photo shoot, you'll also receive high resolution digital images that have all been edited and art worked. No copyright restrictions. This means you get to keep lots of lovely photos, and with no hidden fees, you can blow them up as big as you like and use them as many times as you like and give copies to your friends and family. As well as families, pets, parties, corporate and commercial jobs, Gill also covers weddings. For more information about this please go to www.gillthomas.co.uk.
