FAMILY PHOTO SESSIONS
Authentic images that capture all the joy of your family
A family lifestyle photography session is about creating some really natural photographs, of you together with the people that you love.
Your own family magic is happening right now, right in front of your eyes. The laughs, the wonder, the cuddles, the love; it’s right there, and it’s utterly wonderful.
Sessions are comfortable and relaxed. When everyone is having fun, genuine laughs and lovely moments follow naturally. And that leads to beautiful photographs.
I will create images that really capture the feelings. All the love, all the magic of your incredible family.

“wonderful images that truly capture the essence of our family – we will treasure them forever!”
MiALL FAMILY
“We finally had a chance to sit down last night and properly look through the photos and I just wanted to say how totally thrilled we are with them! There are so many gorgeous ones that it’s been hard to choose our favourites.
It’s been an absolute pleasure working with you from start to finish and you have created some wonderful images that truly capture the essence of our family – we will treasure them forever!
We will certainly be in touch again when the kids are a bit bigger to do another shoot. Thanks so much again!”

“Ok so I have a bone to pick with you Helen. I am in a cafe, meant to be focusing hard on my work to catch up after holiday, and I am utterly distracted by looking at your AMAZING photos on repeat with tears rolling down my cheeks in public.
They are fabulous. Thank you SO MUCH. I only wish I had a job in which I gave people half as much joy as you have given me today.”
HOW IT WORKS
01.
LET’S CHAT
So you know exactly what to expect
Firstly, I want to know all about your family: what you like to do together, what your children are like, and what’s important to you about the photography. Then we can work out what would suit you best for your photography session. I’ve got lots of ideas for locations around the South West if you aren’t sure.
Before the session, we’ll always have a proper chat, usually via video call so that I can say hello face to face. We can talk about what to expect during the shoot, plan the details, and I can answer any questions you have. I will give you some information to help you get ready for the shoot, so you’ll know exactly what to expect beforehand.
I always want you to feel really comfortable with me ahead of your session, and to have all your questions answered. That way, when we meet in person, it will already feel relaxed.

THE SESSION
Relaxed and fun
I’ll give you all the guidance you need, so that you can relax and have fun with your family. I want you to look at the photos and remember this really lovely time that you all shared together. We might take a walk through the forest, or head onto the beach for a play, or explore up on the Devon moors. Or perhaps I’ll just come and join you all at home and capture things there. The session usually takes around an hour, depending on how it all goes and how your children are getting on. I’ll keep things as flexible as you need.
During this time, I’ll create a mixture of images of your family. Some very natural photos of you all together, and some relaxed group shots. You can let me know any photos that are particularly important to you, so that I can try and include these.
It will honestly be a relaxed and enjoyable experience. Definitely not as daunting as most people expect!
03.
YOUR GALLERY
Making the most of your images
After the session, I’ll send you your private online gallery of images. You can take your time looking through these at home, and choose your favourites. You can also share the gallery with other family and friends if you would like to.
Your session includes a fine art print, and you can choose more from the online gallery if you would like to. There are lots of options, from framed prints and albums to digital files or loose prints. I can guide you through the process and help you to make the most of your images in a way that suits you. For some people this is a beautiful fine art album, or some selected images for their walls. Other people want a number of digital files to create their own prints. Let’s chat about what would work for you and I can help you to create some timeless family artwork.
As life carries on racing past, these photographs will just get more precious.
HAVE SOME QUESTIONS?
“I’ve just had a quick skim through the photos – all I can say is wow! It all looks so beautiful!
Thank you again for your amazing work!!”
