Indoor & Outdoor Family Sessions

this time with your kids is so important

I am delighted to provide a versatile experience with the option of both indoor and outdoor sessions. Nestled in the charming village of Thorngumbald, East Yorkshire, my cosy studio is ideal for intimate gatherings and capturing precious moments with little ones. However, for those who savour the beauty of the outdoors, being in Yorkshire opens up a wealth of possibilities, with an abundance of local landmarks to enhance your session.

FAQ

How many pictures will we receive from a family photoshoot?

Please see session collections for images included. If you choose the full gallery you will receive a minimum of 30 images.

How should we dress for our family session?

Plain, neutral colours work well, denim looks great. Avoid large logos and slogans.

What’s the best time to have a session with a newborn?

Within the first 21 days ideally is best for a newborn but don't hesitate to contact me if your baby is older than this. We do have options.

Do you offer mini sessions?

I do offer Seasonal Mini sessions. These are 20 minute sessions on set days and come with a limited number of images.

Do you only cover full day weddings?

No, if you would like wedding coverage for just a couple of hours this is absolutely available for you. Please get in touch for a quote.

What is a milestone session?

Milestone sessions are to celebrate little or big moments. Your baby has learned to sit perhaps or they are turning one year old. Many have a cake smash for a birthday sessions which includes three set ups, mixing the cake, eating the cake and then a splash to wash the cake off! Super messy fun!
