Family photography
"What we catch on film is captured forever. It remembers little things long after you have forgotten everything...."
I'm a mum, and I know all too well how quickly children grow up - sometimes I cant quite comprehend how fast their little lives are whizzing by! To be able to capture and treasure some beautiful professional photographs of your family is completely invaluable in my option.
I will always aim to capture those beautiful, natural and unprompted moments and precious interactions between the family. My photographic style is fun and natural, and I have had some incredibly kind words from happy families that I have had the pleasure of photographing.
It doesn't matter what age you or the kids are, don't leave it a moment longer to invest in some gorgeous memories that you will treasure forever.
Family photo session: £199
My family sessions are £199. For this, we will have about half an hour to an hour at a location of your choice capturing some gorgeous photos of you and your family. My photo sessions are fun, relaxed and informal. You will have at least 30 beautiful images to keep and treasure. These will be delivered to you digitally in high resolution on a password-protected online gallery, where you can share and download unlimitedly.
Time: My family photography sessions are usually about half an hour to one hour long, but don't worry I don't watch the clock! It's important to me that we spend the right amount of time capturing the moments that matter, so we can all be flexible and more importantly... relaxed! I photograph throughout the week as well as weekends, morning, afternoon or evening.
Location: I have been photographing families in Surrey for a long time and I can recommend the best locations that provide a stunning backdrop for your family photoshoot. I have a few firm favourites around Godalming, however, I also travel throughout Surrey, Sussex and Hampshire, so if you have a preferred location then let me know during our session planning. Some people like to have an at home photo shoot too. When choosing your photoshoot location for you and your family, consider the seasonality of your surroundings, i.e. Summer time offers an abundance of wildflower meadows, through to later summer months were hues of purple from blooming heather provide a gorgeous and popular backdrop for your family photoshoot. As we move into autumn, why not take advantage of those gorgeous red, orange and brown tones for which the Surrey countryside has plenty of beautiful locations on offer.
Booking: To book your family photoshoot, I simply take a 50% deposit to secure your booking and I will send you a short form to complete to give me some information about you and your family. This helps me to prepare and get the most out of our session. This locks in your date with me, but I remain flexible, so that if you need to change the date of you photoshoot then you can do so at anytime. Prior to the photo-session we will have a quick call to go over all of the useful information such as clothing, weather outlook, how to prepare etc.
Weather: Believe it or not, a cloudy day provides the perfect soft light for outdoor natural photography. So rest assured, if the sun is not shining (which is often the case in England!), you will have a beautiful set of family photos. If the weather forecast is looking particularly awful such as strong winds or rain then I will post-pone the shoot, no one likes being outside when its miserable so we make a call the day before and I will call you to discuss. IF we need to postpone the shoot for weather related reasons, your deposit is safe and there are no additional charges.
Just drop me a note on my contact page if you have any questions at all.
