Hi I am Laura, I am a family, business and product photographer based in London, WELCOME!
I help families capture memories which last a lifetime with photography celebrating the wonder of creating life. My shots are beautiful and vibrant, with a natural, relaxed and calm approach. I focus on the love and connection in your family to ensure the day goes off without a hitch; by the end of the day, you receive stunning photos to last a lifetime.
I am currently taking bookings for Winter 2021 and Spring 2022, so if you would like to book a family photography session, get in touch now.
Newborn Photography in your home
Family and Newborn Photographs can take place in your home while adhering to any current social distancing rules. You can book a photoshoot today in complete confidence that every effort will be made to ensure the shoot proceeds safely.
Newborn babies usually feel most comfortable in their own environment, and when the baby is happy, we tend to find the parents are too.
However, I also offer newborn and maternity newborn photography in my home studio which is a homely environment and also very comfortable for both babies and parents.
I am now taking newborn photoshoot bookings.
Outdoor Family Photography
Outdoor family photoshoots can take place in local parks in South West London or in Central London. I can advise which location works best for your family’s needs and the children’s ages.
Shoots in Central London can be great fun, especially those taken at iconic London landmarks or parks.
I am currently taking bookings for Autumn Family Photoshoots.
Upon booking, I will send you my fantastic style notes so you can prepare without getting stressed out about the photoshoot. These notes include tips on: what to wear, what to bring with you & how to get the kids ready.
40 People Over 40 Campaign
I am inviting 40 women and men in their 40s, 50s & beyond to collectively change the narrative about age and to celebrate who we are today!
We will create beautiful portraits that are assets and lifelong memories. What is included?
– Professional make-up
– Guided and styled photoshoot
– An invite for you and a friend, to an exhibition style event
– A feature in the magasine
– A portrait of your choice professionally edited, printed and matted.
Publications and Awards
I was so happy to have one of my photos published on Vogue Italia Online in May 2020. I took this photo in a poppy field in Guilford; such a beautiful place! There have been a few more added to my Vogue portfolio this year, photos taken in Wales and in Seven Sisters Cliffs.
I was also delighted to win two Bronze Awards from the Portrait Masters International Awards, an assesment of high professional standards in November 2021.
The winning images are from a photoshoot with a client from my 40 over 40 campaing. As a busy mum and professional, it was a special experience to be able to take these portratis that celebrate her for who she is today.

Welcome
So glad you are here! I am Laura, a family, business and product photographer in Tooting Bec, London. I am on a mission to make you love being photographed!
I know that it can be daunting to be in front of a camera; I take pride in helping you relax and enjoy the experience, including providing tips on what to wear to a family shoot.
I specialise in family and newborn photography, and I have a wealth of experience in this area, photographing babies and families in London since 2017, after training with many renowned photographers.
Professional Headshot photography can help you establish a professional image which builds trust with potential clients and employers. I offer professional LinkedIn headshots and professional headshots in London, as well as various other commercial photography services. See more in Headshots & Businesses.
Great photographs take time, attention to detail and creative flair, and I am generous in the time I spend with you. I always go above and beyond to deliver your brief and beyond.
To discuss your session, call me on 07934788100, email photography@shimilimears.com or fill in the enquiry form below.
I love Mediterranean food, french crepes (galettes) and a glass of proseco in a summer’s evening. We go on holidays to the South of Albania, my home country every year for a month, soaking in the sun and the salty waters of the Ionian Sea.
Through my work I also support a number of charities with fundraising events I run regularly where I offer photography in exchange of contributions.
