Family outdoor photography for those looking for adventure at golden hour

Surrey Family Outdoor sunset photoshoot

There’s a reason I ask you to come out just before sunset...
The light gets warmer, the air feels softer, and something about that time of day slows everyone down.

No pressure. No looking at the camera. Just connection, presence. Just you, as you are…

While I might give you some direction, poses or games to do,  most of the session revolves around enjoying the time together and being in the moment. The session will be focused on you simply being with your children : hugging them, tickling them, giving them a cuddle or chasing them ( for direct family only, I do not offer extended family session) . It's through doing this, that genuine memories and genuine love is captured.

The essence of your Family…

THE FIELD

We’ll wander barefoot ( or in sandals!) through the tall grass, pause to watch the sun dip lower, and capture the kind of moments that feel both peaceful and unforgettable.

We can run between the tall grass (August) and play games, jump in muddy puddles in colder months, or just relax on a blanket and play with wooden toys. With older kids, that’s the best session to run around and play games !

I have a few locations close to my studio. This featured local field has tall grass until end of August roughly ( then they cut it !).

THE FOREST

Where soft light filters through the trees and the ferns sway gently at your feet. The forest session is for you if you want something a bit wilder where the kids can explore, climb, gather little treasures. If you like greener tones and more moody photos.

We will wander, laugh and let the moments unfold naturally, while I will also gently pose you and prompt you.

I have a beautiful forest near my studio.
