Family photoShoots

Capturing the beauty in your everyday. No stiff poses. No fake "cheese" smiles. Just beautiful real life.

I know it often feels like a chaos, but there is so much beauty in the ordinary rhythm of family life. My job is simply to notice those genuine moments and preserve them for you. I love capturing the magic in a normal afternoon, the way a child giggles at something silly, or the comfort of everyone piled onto the sofa together. These are the real, unscripted memories that you will look back on years from now. Afterall, the days are long but the years are short.

for every season of your family

I work with families at every single stage of the journey, adapting the entire session to match your family’s unique energy. Whether you have a puppy, are growing a human, have foster children, older children or multiple generations.

bumps & babies

We keep things incredibly slow and gentle with absolutely no rush or rigid props. or unnatural poses here. There is always plenty of time for feeding, comforting, and just enjoying those quiet, hazy early weeks. You do not need to worry about your house being perfect or not being in a routine (my kids are 11&13 and we are still not in one!).

toddlers and pre-schoolers

The session is based entirely around having fun rather than making anyone behave perfectly. I want to capture their true personalities, the loud bits and the quiet bits alike, so you can just relax and enjoy being together. Whether it’s reading on the sofa, painting in the kitchen, racing on bikes in the garden or blowing bubbles, anything goes in these sessions!

primary schoolers

Primary school children are full of wonderful energy, big stories, and silly jokes. Our session is based entirely around them having a great time rather than forcing anyone to stand still or behave perfectly. I want to capture their genuine character, from their loudest belly laughs to their quietest moments of curiosity, leaving you free to just relax and enjoy being together.

teenagers

The teenage years fly by just as quickly as the toddler phase, yet they often go undocumented. I know that teenagers can sometimes feel a bit uncomfortable or awkward about standing in front of a camera, which is why I keep these sessions entirely casual and conversational.

There is absolutely no pressure to perform or put on a fake smile for me. Instead, we just go for a walk and chat about their interests, allowing their genuine style and personality to come through naturally. It is a lovely opportunity to capture who they are right now at this pivotal stage of growing up, resulting in honest portraits that you will both genuinely love.

grown ups & extended families

Sometimes the very best memories involve the entire crew. Bringing grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins together is a wonderful way to document you all together.

I know that organising a larger group can feel a bit daunting, but we keep these sessions just as relaxed and unhurried as my smaller ones. While we will certainly make sure to get those important generational portraits, my favourite moments are always the ones happening on the sidelines. I love to capture a grandchild whispering a secret to their grandad, or cousins laughing together as they explore.

Choosing your perfect setting

at home

An at home session is wonderful for capturing your actual day to day life, which makes it ideal if you have a brand new baby. We can just focus on your usual routine, whether that involves reading stories, playing in the garden, or simply hanging out together.

outdoors

Alternatively, we can head outdoors to your favourite woods, park, or beach. This is brilliant for letting children explore and run around while I follow along with my camera to capture them in beautiful, natural light.

Bringing the fun to your session

I am a firm believer that photoshoots should actually be a really good time. I am naturally quite a cheerful, lively person, and I bring that lighthearted energy to every single session. My real passion is finding those unique sparks in people and coaxing them out, whether that means sharing a silly joke with your toddler or having a proper laugh with a partner who would rather be anywhere else.

My goal is to make everyone feel so comfortable that they completely forget to feel self-conscious. I will be right there with you, keeping things upbeat, relaxed, and thoroughly entertaining. By the end of our afternoon, you will not only have beautiful photographs, but you will also have had a genuinely lovely day together.
