capturing natural, timeless images of your family

Lifestyle motherhood, family & baby photography in London

If you're looking for a lifestyle family photographer in South-West London you've come to the right place!

I specialise in outdoor and in-home family sessions (including pregnancy, babies, toddlers, and dogs), capturing candid, genuine moments of joy and happiness.

My priority is to make the session fun and enjoyable for everyone, as of course that's when I get the best pictures. So if we need to stop for a snack break, nappy change or take a moment to calm an overwhelmed toddler, that's not a problem!

My Services


Pregnancy


An at-home or outdoor photoshoot is the perfect way to preserve the memory of your pregnancy, and to celebrate your first steps into motherhood.


It can be a really empowering experience, giving you the space to focus on yourself for short period, and to celebrate all that your body has done in growing your beautiful baby/babies.


This session tends to be more posed than others, simply by its nature, but I'll be there to help you every step of the way!





Newborn


Beautiful natural images of your newborn and siblings - no uncomfortable, forced poses, just you and your baby in your home environment, ideally when baby is 2-4 weeks old, but we can do this session up to 3 months old.


I know newborns can be unpredictable, and it can seem overwhelming to even think about doing a photoshoot postpartum. This is why I come to you, and we take our time - I always allow for feeding, nappy changes, whatever baby or you need.


Ideally I'd see baby awake and asleep to give the variety in images, but sometimes babies have other ideas!




Family


If you are looking to capture classic, timeless images of your family (in whatever form!) that you'll treasure for years to come, this is the session for you.


Perhaps you want to capture a key milestone (first birthday / toddler walking / child going to school etc), or you simply start to realise that time is flying and you don't have many great photos of you all together.


Whatever your motivation, a family session is versatile and bound to deliver special memories.




Mummy & Me


As a mum of two, all too often I find myself behind the camera and not actually in any of the family pictures. If that resonates with you and you don't want a full family session, then a Mummy & Me shoot could be a great choice - it's a shorter session, and could be with one or all of your children.


This session focuses on the connection between mother and child, both tender and loving, but also silly and fun.


The images we create together will be such special memories for you, but also for your children to look back on in years to come and be reminded of how much they are loved.

Kind Words

We were lucky enough to have Emily take pictures of our baby and the photos of our little girl are stunning.

Emily is extremely talented and captured her expressions perfectly!

The shoot was very relaxed and Emily was brilliant at working with our newborn and putting us all at ease.

We will cherish these beautiful photos forever.
