Families, children and pets

All my family, children and pets packages include:

  • Travel of up to 30 miles from the SO30 postcode, with further afield travel expenses available on request.

  • A full gallery of beautifully edited images in my signature style, available for unlimited download through a secure online portal, five to six weeks after your shoot.

  • Your gallery can be accessed online for up to three years, a digital vault for your photos to be downloaded at any time.

Family on location

Forget about polished posed studio portraits. These are outdoor family adventures, capturing your family as they are and how you want to remember them for years to come. Let the little ones run around and be silly.

The best thing about photographing kids is that they are not self-conscious. They won't all look at the camera at the same time, and they might not smile when you tell them to. But they will be themselves, and it is this playfulness of you and your family that I will capture.

Typically, sessions last approximately 1–2 hours, depending on variables such as weather, location, and children’s moods.

Your investment for this package is £250 (2026/27 shoot date)

Children on location

Your little ones are now walking and talking, so let's get creative with their individual personalities shining through. Let them play whilst I capture those natural smiles, giggles, and funny faces.

Typically, sessions last approximately 1–2 hours, depending on variables such as weather, location, and children’s moods.
