Kids portrait sessions

Kids are absolutely fantastic to take portraits of, they have a natural ability to understand what the photogrpher asks of them and generally have fewer inhibitions, allowing their natural expressions to shine though.

We even have a great variety of kids themed sessions for you to choose from. We specialise in dance photography and sports photography for kids. This is where we can have some fun with action shots and create portraits showing them in action helping them to visualize just how good they can be.

We photograph beautiful Fairy Portraits where we tranform the studio with amazing fairy sets and use our wardrobe of costumes and specially made wings to bring the imagination of your children to life.

Kids Hobby shoots can include anything your kids love such as art, books, fancy dress, martial arts, and anything they love. These portraits are designed to tell a story of what makes them unique.

Lots of children are also music mad and we have found that photographing them with their musical instuments is a great way to create lovely timeless portraits that are stunning to view.

Helping the planet with Ecologi

We have partnered with Ecologi through the Master Photographers Association as we want to be part of a positive movement for our planet and to use our business to make an impact for the future of the families we photograph. We can help reduce our carbon footprint by contributing through Ecologi who work with the Eden Project planting trees in Madagascar. The number of trees we have planted can be seen in the above logo.
