Surrey Family Photographer | Professional Family Photoshoot
December is wizzing past and Christmas is just round the corner. I have had a busy year with lots of wonderful photoshoots. Some of these have been with my existing, loyal clients who have supported me from the very beginning. Others have been with new clients who I hope to see again and again in years to come.
Relaxed Family Photo Sessions
My year has been marked by a variety of different commissions - a post-wedding photoshoot, newborn photo sessions, pet photography, christening event photography, wax figure photography. However, the majority of photoshoots have been family photo sessions. I absolutely love photographing families - I enjoy meeting and getting to know a family. The kids always bring fun and games to a photoshoot - there is never a dull moment! I like to keep things as natural as possible when I work, this keeps the whole family relaxed which in turn makes photos and people in them look natural. I occasionally give a suggestion for a game or activity but I often find that kids are the ones who beat me to it, and spontaneously come up with a new creative game.
Indoor and Outdoor Family Photography
The two photographs below were taken at a photoshoot a couple of months ago (I am a bit behind with my blog posts!), where I was commissioned to take photos at a big family get together. After a couple of hours taking photos of everyone outside in the garden, I came inside to pack up and take a few last shots of the kids. They started dancing and playing, and I managed to capture a few of these candid moments. These ended up to be some of my favourite photos from this session. Completely unposed, just kids playing, showing me their moves and toys, having the best time!
If you are having a family get together, or you would like some photos of your immediate family, please get in touch to discuss your requirements. If you would like to find out more information about my family photoshoots, head over to my family photography page.

I am making the most of being snowed in to catch up with my blog posts! I have done a family photoshoot for Mumta and her family back in December, the weekend after another snow storm parts of the country have experienced. The traffic was so bad it was reminiscent of apocaliptic film scences and we had to re-arrange our photo session. It was cold but sunny on the day of our photoshoot, and it was lovely to catch up with Mumta and her family which has grown since the last time I photographed them. The family was moving countries so wanted to have a few photos of their home and their local walk as a memory before they imigrated. It was great fun (although a bit of a challenge!) trying to follow the kids play and take some action shots but I am really pleased with the resulting images. I hope these photos provide a lasting memory for the family, and I can't wait to see them all when (and if ) they come back to Britain! If you would like to enquire about or arrange a family photo session, please contact me - I would love to hear from you!
