FAMILY
Capturing the connection, chaos
and little moments that make
your family yours.
Family photography is a way of preserving those moments honestly, naturally and beautifully.
The years move quickly. The little hands get bigger, personalities change and the everyday moments you once took for granted become the ones you miss most.
— Sophie, client
“GILLIAN WAS WONDERFUL TO WORK WITH AND AMAZING WITH OUR FIVE CHILDREN. WE LOVE HOW GILLIAN EQUALLY CAPTURED THE LOVE AND CHAOS OF A LARGE FAMILY."
Here is a glimpse into this gorgeous family. A mix of photos from two family sessions over the years. One outdoor photo session enjoying golden hour at the park and the other in the comfort of their beautiful home.

QUESTIONS
Yes I do! Although anything that requires more than 1 hour travel each way does incur a travel fee.
Q. Do YOU TRAVEL
You will be sent an online gallery within 4 weeks of your shoot which you can share with friends and family.
Q. HOW DOES IT WORK WITH RECIEVING IMAGES?
Smart-casual and comfortable, with footwear you can move around in. I recommend choosing a soft, cohesive colour palette of 3–4 tones across the family. Avoid bright or fluorescent colours, reds/oranges, and anything overly shiny or reflective. Linen and soft, natural tones always work beautifully.
Q. WHAT DO WE WEAR?
If you choose to have an outdoor session, I recommend late afternoon when the light is soft and warm. I’ll guide you on the best time depending on the season. In regards to locations, it's always nice to choose somewhere meaningful to your family. Alternatively I can suggest a few beautiful options.
Q. WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND FOR TIME OF DAY & LOCATION?
1–2 hours, depending on the size of your family, with plenty of time for full group photos, smaller groupings and relaxed, candid moments. My approach is natural and fun, capturing your family honestly, without everything feeling overly posed. I’ll generally photograph little ones and anyone who may need a little extra consideration first, so everyone can enjoy the session at their own pace.
You can even make a day of it with a family picnic beforehand or dinner afterwards!
