So what are the different types of family photoshoots I will be offering this season?
Full family photography shoots are family photogaphy sessions that are bespoke and tailored to your family.
In a bespoke session the FAMILY can choose the best location for the family session and also the date and time that is most convenient.
The location can be outdoors, in the landmarks of London or in your home.
The full family shoot allows more choice so that the location can match the family’s favourite activities.
If you like a walk in the woods, a park or visiting a part of London, we can make that happen.Â
How long does it last?
The full family shoot lasts between 1- 2 hours and can be booked at a time that is most suitable for the family.
Weekend Dates avaialable
Weekends are a very popular time and they tend to go very quickly. At the moment weekend availability leading time is 1-2 months.
To reserve, it is best to enquire sooner rather than later as I would hate to turn families down.

Family mini shoot, is a shorter family photography session. The shoot lasts up to one hour minutes and the location and the date are set by the photographer.Â
These are great sessions for a refresher and to capture your children as they grow.Â
The dates for Family Mini sessions this spring were in May. The next mini sessions will be in the Autumn. Â
These sessions are very limited and I only do family mini sessions in the Spring and in the Autumn. Â
