Natural family photoshoot Leicester, Nottingham, Derby
Fun, natural family photography, making memories for you and your children.
No need to say cheese- authentic family portraits
There is no rush, no pressure, no stress. If a child- or an adult-doesn’t want to play, smile or look at the camera, that’s perfectly OK.
I bring games, ideas, surprises and am happy to the kids’ ideas too to ensure that everyone is happy. It’s a mix of suggestions and complete candids; a mix of group shots and individual portraits -including pets.
From laughter to cuddles: real families, real love.
You know it’s true: in the blink of an eye, they’ve grown up. We only get 18 summers with them and we miss them already. Photos capture those precious moments and your relationships so that you can recall their smell, giggles, shyness, daringness, their uniqueness and all the little things that melts your heart.
From birth to old age, through illness and funerals. Whatever special needs or conditions, everyone matters, and memories are priceless.
Outdoors and at home family photoshoots.
We can go to your favourite locations in Leicestershire, Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire. I am also available for photography in Birmingham and other locations, just ask.
For newborns and some maternity photos, or if it’s too cold or too sunny, we can shoot indoors if space and light allow. I also shoot in hospital if need be.
Whether it is for sisters, mum and daughter, grandparents, best friends, multiple generations, there is no limit on the number of people and yes you can change outfits. I will help you with choosing your clothes.
Pets are more than welcome. Bring what makes you happy: musical instrument, dressing up, picnic… Involve the children in the planning, let them sufggest activities and lead the way!

If it rains, we can rearrange. Or shoot in the rain, snow, it can be fun! You choose.
Families with special needs are welcome.
For very young babies, we can stay indoors- I’ll need as much natural light as possible. For maternity I can also do indoors photos with studio lighting.
