Family, maternity and newborn photography

Hold onto the way life feels right now.

Parents playing with their child during a woodland walk

Warm, playful photographs of real connection, made at home or outdoors in Northamptonshire.

Beautifully real, never forced.

Your family doesn’t need to sit still, look at the camera or behave perfectly.

In fact, the good stuff usually happens when nobody is trying too hard. A session with me has room for play, cuddles, snacks, exploring and the occasional wobble. I’ll gently guide the shape of things while giving your family space to be exactly who they are.

I photograph families, growing bumps and newborns in Wellingborough, across Northamptonshire, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Milton Keynes.

Come for the photographs. Leave having had proper time together.

Kind words

From families I’ve photographed.

The photographs become more valuable

Not just for now. For later, too.

One day, these will show your children what it felt like to be loved by you in this exact season.

That is why I photograph the relationships as much as the faces. The way they reach for you. The private jokes. The comfort of familiar arms. These are the details that become family history.

Good to know

Family photography questions.

What should I tell you when I enquire?

Tell me who’ll be joining the session, the ages of any children and what you’d love to remember about this stage of family life. Once you’ve booked, I’ll send a planning guide with advice on clothing, locations and getting the most from our time together.

When will we receive our photographs?

Your carefully edited online gallery will usually be ready within four weeks. If I expect any delay, I’ll always let you know. You can view, share and download your chosen photographs, as well as order prints through your gallery.

How much are additional image downloads?

For family and maternity sessions, you can add one or two additional photographs for £50 each, or upgrade to the full remaining gallery for £100. Additional newborn photographs are £62.50 each, or £125 for the full remaining gallery.

Can I use the photographs for my business?

Your family photographs are licensed for personal use, including sharing them on your personal social media and printing them for your home or as gifts. If you’d also like business or promotional photographs during your session, please tell me before we book so I can provide the right quote and usage licence. I retain the copyright to all photographs.

Can two or more families attend the same session?

Yes. For two or more families, you’ll need a full one-hour session so there’s enough time for different groups and natural moments. These larger sessions include 20 photographs. Additional photographs are £100 each, or £200 for the full remaining gallery.

Can we have the RAW files?

I don’t provide RAW files. Every photograph you receive is carefully selected and edited so your finished gallery feels consistent, polished and true to my style.

Is a booking payment required?

Yes. A 25% non-refundable initial payment is required to book, with the remaining balance due on the day of your session.

What happens if it rains or someone is unwell?

I’ll keep an eye on the forecast before an outdoor session. Heavy rain may mean we need to reschedule, while scattered showers can sometimes still work with wellies and clear umbrellas. If anyone is unwell, please contact me as soon as possible and we’ll arrange another date. Your initial payment remains non-refundable. If I’m unwell and a new date doesn’t work for you, I’ll provide a full refund.

When is our booking confirmed?

Your booking is confirmed once I’ve received your initial payment and signed agreement. Until both are complete, your preferred date and time aren’t secured.

Do you charge for travel?

A 40-mile round trip from Wellingborough, Northamptonshire is included. Additional mileage is charged at 55p per mile, and any other necessary travel costs will be agreed before booking.

Can I change my package after booking?

You can usually upgrade your package or add more time after booking, subject to availability. Packages can’t be reduced once they’ve been booked.

Will you help us feel comfortable in front of the camera?

Absolutely. I’ll use gentle direction and natural prompts when they’re helpful, but there’s no pressure to pose or perform. You can relax, enjoy being together and let me take care of the photographs.

This season will not wait
