It’s been fantastic getting back to my work as a lifestyle family photographer after the latest lockdown. I’ve already photographed so many lovely families and it’s looking like being the busiest summer ever! I’m not sure which part of being a London family photographer I like the best. From getting to know new families… then watching the images come to life during the editing process… to delivering the final gallery to the happy parents. It’s all enjoyable and I appreciate every aspect of my job even more now.
But my favourite element of all is having fun with the children during the sessions. Although I always try and get a few relaxed portraits of the whole family together at the beginning of the photoshoot, the majority of the session is spent just playing. Kids do the funniest things, and photographing them naturally produces wonderful images. No forced smiles, just a chance for everyone’s unique personality to shine through in the photos.
Spring lifestyle family photographer
The photos below were taken during one of my Spring lifestyle family photography sessions. I spent a lovely morning with the family, running around and exploring their local park. The two sisters were brilliantly energetic (and quite hard to keep up with at times!) and just loved being together. One of my favourite images is the one of the older girl giving her younger sister a huge hug. She wrapped her arms so tightly around her sibling you can only just see the little one’s eyes peeking over her big sister’s arm. Such a lovely moment!
After capturing lots more candid moments in this beautiful park it was time to make our way back to the family home. The girls sat with their parents and read a book together, which produced some fun and some more reflective images of this lovely family together.
I hope you enjoy seeing these photos from one of my London family photography sessions. If you’re interested, you can see more of my work here London Family Photographer
