Beautiful, natural photographs to cherish your family
As a father, I know firsthand how precious it is to look back on photographs of my son—seeing just how much he’s grown and how quickly time flies. That’s why family photography in Kent holds such a special place in my heart, alongside weddings.
My approach is all about authenticity—capturing real, heartfelt moments of you and your loved ones doing what you enjoy most. Whether it’s a stroll along the beach, quite times in the cozy comfort of your home, or an adventure in the woods, these are the moments that matter. Let’s create a collection of photographs that celebrate your family as they are right now—memories you’ll treasure forever.
Two Approaches For Your Family
Choose the option that best suits you
I believe that photography is a form of art that can take pride of place on your walls or in an album, but I also understand that we only have a certain amount of space and sometimes digital is a good option for capturing lovely memories. That's why I offer an "heirloom" & a "digital experience".
For your bespoke shoot We always consider:
- Where would you like the shoot? Pick somewhere that means something to you – maybe it's your house and the way the light sits in the room. Maybe it's a favourite woodland area, the place where your kids love ice cream, or somewhere special like the beach in Ramsgate or the rocks in Kingsdown. The goal is to create photos in a place that is special to you.
- Relaxed Vibes: sessions usually last 1-2 hours, giving us time to relax, have fun and be sure we've got the shot. Always bring a couple of outfits and make sure your colour palette is coordinated.

Family Photo Shoot Location Ideas & Inspiration
Choosing the right location is key to creating family portraits that are truly memorable. I’ve had the chance to shoot in some of the most beautiful spots in Kent, and here are a few of my favourites:
Ramsgate Beach
Just a short walk from my home, there are so many places to explore: rockpools, sandy parts during low tide and an awesome boulder garden on the walk down.
Kearsney Abbey
Kearsney Abbey is filled with stunning trees and picturesque paths, making it a perfect location for a family photoshoot. Spring, in particular, is a magical time to visit, as the daffodils bloom in vibrant colours!
Kingsdown Beach
I absolutely love the beach and the best thing about Kingsdown Beach is that you have big rocks, pebbles and beach huts. You also have big cliffs to explore if you're feeling adventurous!
Your Home
If you have a particularly beautiful home and grounds surrounding, your place can be the perfect place to host your family shoot.
Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the best time Of year for a family shoot?
I have photographed families in brisk, winter months and warm summer, it all depends what you would like to feel like on the shoot and what you would like to wear. As for the time of day, late afternoon or “golden hour” – just after sunrise or before sunset – offers the softest, most flattering light for photos.
How can we use the digital files?
Most of my families always purchase something for their wall or home, whether that's a bespoke framed product or an album with all images from the shoot. However, digitals can be great for sending to overseas family, for phone backgrounds, or for social media.
How long does a family shoot last?
A family shoot generally lasts 1 hour but can be longer: I never rush the shoot, giving us enough time to explore the location, try different outfits, and capture a variety of shots. If you’d like to visit multiple locations, we can extend the session a bit to make sure we cover everything.
What should we wear for our family photo session?
Wear something that reflects your personal style and makes you feel good, but I definitely recommend the same colour palette. Whatever you wear, I suggest no big logos or crazy t-shirts as these can age in time. Bring a mix of outfits – casual and comfortable. Solid colours or subtle patterns work well, as they keep the focus on you. White is good as it will enable more light to shine on you.
