Newborn Photo Session in the Surrey Hills | Surrey Family Photographer

A Relaxing Outdoor Newborn Photo Session

This newborn photo session took place entirely at an outside location. We arranged to meet in the beautiful Surrey Hills, in an area covered with pine forest. My clients and I spent a wonderful morning taking photographs in a gorgeous spot which looked more like the Pacific North West coast of Canada than Surrey. It was an overcast day which provided beautiful even lighting.

Outdoor Family Photography

It is so rewarding photographing families with their new family additions. I love hearing about members of the family getting to know the baby. It is great to hear (and remember!) all those routines and early stages. But most of all, it gives me great joy and satisfaction knowing I am capturing those magical early moments, so often missed or unappreciated due to demands of looking after a tiny baby.

Natural Baby Portraits

I work with natural light to capture portraits of your newborn baby, but also their little features, their tiny noses, eyes, little fingers and tiny toes. I also put quite a lot of emphasis on photographing you with your baby, documenting the spacial bond developing between parents, siblings and grandparents with the little one.

Book A Newborn Photoshoot

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.
