If you want great photos that make your family look really natural, then you need to have an enjoyable time. As you can see from these photos we encouraged the family to lark around however they wished – we do this for two reasons:
We like to find out the hobbies and interests of those in our family photoshoots, as it makes for some interesting extra photos. During this photoshoot we quickly found out this young lady was a dancer and her brother was a skateboarder. So of course we encouraged them to do each to give the family some extra photos for their family album, which they hadn’t anticipated.
Dad and son, plus mum and daughter – both very special combinations. We try not to over-pose people, as we’d prefer you to look as natural as possible. So with families we try to do what we call ‘Light Posing’, where we’ll slightly guide you into the position and pose, but we’ll then try and encourage you to ‘own it’, as this family have done here, where they look really natural and comfortable.
You’ll find our approach to working with families applies to children of all ages, young and old. We’re always keen to get them involved in what we’re doing – we want them to be active participants, rather than bored bystanders who just get told how to stand. We work closely with your children to allow them to have some informal fun time and to help us create a memorable experience for all of you.
Here are some of our favourite photos from this family photoshoot – it was really difficult to choose, as there were so many beautiful photos. The photoshoot was such fun, as we’d allowed time for the girls to play, relax and to be themselves.
We love how happy and relaxed this Italian family look in this lovely portrait of all of them together on a family holiday trip to London.
When we use a studio we can make the background look a super cool white, like in these beautiful photos (though of course that’s not the only colour). We run a professional mobile studio, so we can bring it direct to your home, if you have the space, or to any other indoor venue.

As Christmas gets closer many parents love to have family Christmas photoshoots – usually so that they can create a set of family Christmas cards. However, many are also wanting to create family albums at this time of the year to remember what their children were like at that stage in their lives.
Rural locations are great for family photoshoots, because everyone can be themselves without worrying about other people. It also means you can get really lovely green backgrounds, like these here, which makes these sisters look great.
Sometimes a simple portrait with a blurred background is the best, like these photos here. Both brothers were wearing casual blue shirts, so these worked really well against the blurred green backgrounds from the park which means, when their mum and dad look at these photos, they’ll concentrate on the faces of their sons, rather than looking at the background.
