About Family Sessions

​

My family photography sessions are relaxed and natural, focusing on real moments and genuine connection. I photograph families outdoors in beautiful locations such as Market Bosworth and across Warwickshire – in meadows, forests and natural countryside settings that are perfect for families with children.

Sessions can also take place in the comfort of your home as a relaxed lifestyle photoshoot, capturing everyday moments and the true atmosphere of family life.

These sessions are designed to capture the true personality of your family – children playing, parents connecting, and the small moments that become precious memories over time.

Beautiful Locations for Family Photoshoots 

​

Warwickshire and Leicestershire offer many beautiful locations for natural family photography sessions.

Some of my favourite places for family photos include::

• Market Bosworth

• Hartshill Hayes Country Park woodland and hills

• wildflower meadows during the summer season

• Jephson Gardens and parks in Leamington Spa

• the historic streets and park areas of Warwick Old Town

• Bradgate Park with its beautiful ancient trees and wild deer herds in the background

These natural locations provide the perfect setting for relaxed family photography with children, allowing them to explore, play and simply be themselves.

Frequently Asked Questions:

​

What should we wear for a family photoshoot?

Choosing what to wear for a family photoshoot can feel overwhelming, but I am always happy to help. When we plan your session, I guide you with outfit suggestions that work beautifully with the location, season and overall style of the photos.

For outdoor family photography in Warwickshire and Leicestershire, I usually recommend soft natural colours, neutral tones and outfits that complement the surrounding landscape. Coordinating colours rather than matching outfits often creates the most natural and timeless look.

If your session takes place at home as a relaxed lifestyle photoshoot, comfortable clothing that reflects your family’s personality works perfectly.

Before the session, I am happy to help you plan your outfits so that everything looks harmonious and natural in your family photographs.

​

How long does a family photoshoot last?

Family photography sessions are relaxed and never rushed. When photographing children, it’s important that they feel comfortable, well-rested and happy. I always recommend making sure little ones are well fed and have had a good nap before the session so everyone can enjoy the experience.

My family photoshoots are designed to feel like a relaxed walk in nature rather than a formal photoshoot. I gently guide the session when needed, but I always adapt to the natural rhythm and dynamics of your family.

A full family photography session usually lasts around 1.5 hours, giving us plenty of time for children to relax, explore and for genuine moments to unfold naturally.

I also offer mini family sessions, which are shorter and typically last around 30 minutes.

​

Who can take part in a family photoshoot?

Family sessions are usually designed for one immediate family. However, I understand that sometimes grandparents or close relatives may wish to join for a few photographs, and this can often create beautiful and meaningful family memories.

Well-behaved dogs are also very welcome to be part of the session, as they are often an important member of the family.

If you would like grandparents, extended family members or pets to join the session, please let me know in advance so we can plan the photoshoot in the best way for everyone.

​

What happens if the weather is bad on the day of the photoshoot?

Family photography sessions take place throughout the year. I photograph families in spring, summer and autumn, and I also offer winter sessions around November and December, which can have a beautiful seasonal atmosphere.

For my style of natural photography, the best light is usually a soft cloudy or lightly overcast day, which creates gentle and flattering light. Surprisingly, this type of weather often works better for photos than strong sunshine.

If the day is very bright and sunny, I usually schedule the session later in the evening to capture the beautiful golden light, often called golden hour, which creates warm and magical tones in the photographs.

If the weather is extremely bad, such as heavy rain or strong wind, we can always reschedule the session to another suitable day.
