Autumnal Family Photo Session in Putney | London Family Photographer in Wandsworth Park
Autumnal Family Photo Session
The beginning of autumn is such a lovely time for family photography. The weather is still mild, the leaves are on the trees but starting to gain their autumnal colours and summer flowers lingering about. On top of all that, the light starts to gain a softer quality - ideal for family portraits.
Putney Family Session with a one year old
I was contacted by previous clients who’s wedding I photographed a couple of years ago with a wonderful news that their family has expanded. They asked if they could book in a family photo session with a one year old, which I was totally over the moon with!
Wandsworth Park Family Photography
We chosse to meet at Wandsworth park, the family’s local park, minutes away from the bustling Putney high street, and moments away from the River Thames. I have never photographed here before and was suprpised by the variety of areas. We took a walk around and incorporated some classic family portraits with action shots, baby portraits and striking silhouettes. There was a gorgeous avenue of London plane trees which was my favourite, and a wildlife meadow area - perfect for those relaxed family portraits.

Surrey Quays Newborn Photo Session | London Family Photography
Natural Photography Newborn Portraits
My work as a family photographer gives me some wonderful opportunities to meet different kids of families - families with dogs, families with young children, those with older children and teenagers or extended families. On this occasion, my work took me to Surrey Quays in London to photograph a family with a newborn.
Newborn Sessions
I really enjoy photographing newborn babies, it is such a special time in any family’s life and passes by so quickly. Capturing moments from this stage ensures that this time is treasured in years to come. Although cozy and sweet, these sessions can be slightly unpredictable as one never knows what a newborn baby will be like on the day - sleepy, alert or unsettled. I was really pleased that the baby was very chilled, full of wonder and loving all the cuddles and kisses it was getting from mum & dad. We started the shoot in the bedroom, a large window allowing lots of natural light to come through, flooding the room with beautiful soft light. The family snuggled up on the bed which set the scene for natural candid moments I captured with my trusty Canon R5. After a busy morning, the newborn baby was getting a bit tired so it was the perfect time for some milk and a short nap.
Indoor Family Photo Session
The family had received a photography gift voucher from their friends, to mark the birth of their baby daughter. After discussing possible locations, we settled on meeting at their flat in Surrey Quays, which felt appropriate for the time of year (it was early spring and still a bit chilly) and the age of the baby. It is nice to get some cozy shots inside the house when the baby is in that newborn stage. Indoor photo sessions also give me a challenge - to find new and interesting ways of photographing a family in the confines of their home.
After a very short nap, it was time for some more food. I took this opportunity to take a few quiet images of the baby feeding. After she was finished and when she settled back to sleep, I photographed those tiny toes and tiny fingers before leaving the family in peace and making my way back home.
