Creative Family Portraiture
Good photographs are like Time Travel. They transport you right back to a particular moment. You can even smell the smells and feel the emotions all over again. This is why photographing the people we love the most is so important.
As a visual storyteller,I aim to capture your beautiful, complex, silly, special family relationships on camera. I aim to shoot timeless images with a warm, natural feel. My fine-art photography education has trained me to craft beautiful images through the lens using composition and lighting. I hold myself to a very high standard of photography and aim to provide you with a priceless memory that your family will treasure forever.
I am a “people person” and and endeavour to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera – even if you don’t normally love having your picture taken. I will happily provide you with guidance on posing throughout the session, but will still produce images that feel fun and natural.
They Grow Up Too Fast
In the past few years I have photographed hundreds of family sessions. I am experienced working with children and young people within this setting and I always aim to make the session fun and playful. It’s great to capture kids running and playing, couples laughing with each other at a private joke, or everybody sheltering together under a coat during an unexpected drizzle.
Depending on the location of the photoshoot you may be able to change into more than one outfit, and we will work together to shoot a variety of images..
Following the shoot and edit, you will receive your images digitally in high resolution for print and web resolution for internet sharing. We can also discuss printed products including wall portraits, fine-art frames and albums. I can guide you through the printing process to create a beautiful, bespoke piece of artwork for your wall.

Outdoor Family Sessions
Cost Breakdown: £150 Photography Session Fee // £0 Location Fee
An outdoor photography session is a really fun way to capture your family moments. Children often love the experience of running and playing outdoors and some beautiful local nature spots such as Sutton Park (Sutton Coldfield, West Midlands) offer a perfect backdrop for your photography session.
It is important to consider the time of year and potential weather conditions of your photoshoot location – this is England, after all! Each season has its own pros and cons and this is something we can discuss in the planning stage.
Expect creative family photographs with glowy sunsets, lens-flare, golden rays, whimsical flowers and bursts of seasonal colour.
easy and comfy
Photoshoot At Home
Cost Breakdown: £150 Photography Session Fee // £0 Location Fee
There is something very special about capturing your family photographs inside your own home. Everyone feels relaxed and comfortable, and your clothing and props are all at your fingertips. This is best for those with a medium to large sized family home with plently of light. Depending on the weather, we can also use your garden during this photoshoot.
I do not generally bring a studio backdrop to your home to produce “white background” photographs. Instead I use the natural backdrops offered by your home, including walls, floors, and outdoor space. Expect plenty of raw and real imagery showing your family in their natural habitat.
