Looking for family photography Ashtead Surrey? I travel all over Surrey and the surrounding counties.
I was so delighted to hear from this family who I first photographed when they had their first child. It’s always a treat to be invited back to capture a family again. So with another addition of their gorgeous daughter it was time to take some more family pictures.
I went back to their home to capture them in their garden. The children felt relaxed and comfortable there. They enjoyed showing me all their favourite places they like to play. It was lovely that we included Teddy! Do Bring any special toys, books, or cuddlies! It makes it all the more personal to record.
In the latter part of the shoot the children needed a reward as a carrot. Therefore the temptation of the ice lollies was dangled in front of them! As a result is was easy to get the last few smiles and reward them because they had been so good!
The choice of location is up to you. Perhaps your garden, or somewhere you enjoy spending time as a family. If there is nowhere in particular I am happy to make some suggestions. This is often dependent on the time of year you would like to shoot. For example an arboretum is perfect in the autumn.
Kind thoughts
I had a lovely message from the family after their frames had been delivered.
“The frames have arrived and they are simply fantastic. Thank you so much – you have captured some wonderful moments to treasure.”
My absolute pleasure, I’m so pleased they’ve bought so much happiness.
Perhaps you would like to see some more information about other family sessions. Including pricing. In addition do check out the information page and the blog. Alternatively send me a message on my contact page or call me. I’d love to chat about a family photography session.

Are you looking for a Family Photographer Epsom?
I couldn’t wait to meet this large family from Epsom in Surrey for their photoshoot. They were such good fun and with the good weather and plenty of laughter the session was very easy! I love these large photography sessions. Because it’s wonderful to see the generations coming together and having fun. This is what memories are made of. I recently took some of my children with my parents. I know we will all treasure them for the rest of our lives.
Please note, I only take on a maximum of 8 Clients per month. So that I have sufficient time to dedicate to each Client. Importantly I provide my Clients with the flexibility to reschedule the session date if we need to due to illness or weather. I tend to book about 2-3 months in advance, so please get in contact early to secure your session. Especially if you have a particular time of year you’d like to book. For example bluebells in April/May which are very popular! Also bear in mind it takes about 6-8 weeks to deliver your final products from the shoot date, so if you have Christmas, Mother’s/Father’s Day or Birthday Gifts in mind, allow plenty of time! Thank you.

Are you looking for a family photoshoot Cobham? I travel all over Surrey and beyond capturing happy families relaxing and enjoying time together. Each session is bespoke so we can chat about what combinations are important to you. The venue can be your garden or somewhere that you like to go as a family. Or I can make some suggestions if there is nowhere in particular. Before your session I will send you a guide to preparing for it. So that you’ll be ready to go on the day.
I adored this session that I took last autumn at a really stunning arboretum that comes alive in the middle of October. The colours are magnificent, an array of orange, yellow, red and gold. It really feels rather magical for a family photoshoot.
The family are fantastic fun. I think this is either my fourth or fifth photo shoot for them! The first one was when the little girl was just two and the brother was in mummy’s tummy! So it’s been such a pleasure documenting the family along their journey.
As you will see from the pictures below we had a really fun time.
The family were very kind to give me a lovely testimonial afterwards. Thank you so much.
“We had a fantastic time during our most recent photoshoot with Nicola, this time having it in Autumn when the previous ones have been in spring/summer. I was absolutely thrilled to see the photos at the viewing session. She once again captured the most beautiful photos, and I love the autumn colours so much!”

I’ve had some really delightful enquiries recently from people looking for Guildford portrait photography photo shoots. There are so many options for lovely locations for portrait photography around the Guildford area. Surrey is a wonderful place to live providing woodlands, parks and open fields.
The choice of location for your portrait photography is your choice. You are welcome to make suggestions. Maybe there is somewhere special to you as a family? If there is nowhere in particular, I am happy to make some suggestions.
This gorgeous portrait photography session took place near Guildford in a beautiful RHS garden. It was extra special because I had photographed the family a few years ago. It’s always a treat to catch up with families and to see how much the children have grown. Their daughters are delightful. Such a credit to their parents. They are very smiley and fun so it was very easy catching them. We enjoyed walking around the gardens, having fun and capturing them enjoying family time together. The flowers were looking amazing as they always do. They have some fantastic gardeners there I think!
After the session I had a very kind email from them.
“We were delighted with the images and both though there were some really stunning shots of the children. I think the girls’ cheeky personalities really came through and they looked so happy and joyous – perhaps it was easier with them being slightly older this time round!”
Thank you so much guys. It really was my pleasure. I’m so glad you love your portraits as much as I do.
If you’re looking for some Guildford portrait photography do check out my information page. In addition you may wish to contact me to discuss further. I look forward to hearing from you.

Family Photographer Surrey // Guildford Portrait Photography
I honestly believe that being a family photographer Guildford is one of the best jobs in the world! I’m so happy to be back out shooting. I have missed it so much.
This was a really great photography shoot with a family who I have photographed four times previously. Last year they welcomed their third beautiful daughter to their family. I’ve had the pleasure to photograph them since just after their eldest daughters first birthday. It is such a treat as a family photographer to be able to document the lives of my clients as they grow older.
Their latest family shoot was at Wellington College where the father works. It was very important to the family to include their favourite parts of the college gardens and buildings as they are leaving Wellington to start a new job at a different school. We had such a lovely morning together. It was rather hot but the girls did brilliantly. They loved showing me their favourite parts of the garden and running through the college quadrants. Of course we had the place to ourselves as the children are currently all homeschooling.
I had a lovely review from the family after, “Another super fun and relaxed family shoot with Nicola. Nicola has captured us over the last 7 years as we’ve gone from one to three daughters. The pictures make beautiful lifelong memories.” Thank you so much for choosing me, it really was a treat to see you all again!
Next Steps
If you’re thinking about a venue for your family photography you’re welcome to choose somewhere that is special to you like your garden or local woods. Or if there is nowhere in particular, I can make some recommendations depending on the time of year.
If you would like to read more about family photography sessions please do follow the link or get in touch to discuss further. I look forward to hearing you from you.
Please note I now have very limited availability during the summer months especially Saturdays and Sundays. So if you do want a photo shoot I’d recommend getting in touch sooner rather than later!

Bramley family photographer
This lovely family were looking for a Bramley family photographer to capture their children for their annual Christmas card. This was an extra special treat for me because I had captured them a year before for their Christmas card. It’s always lovely to go back to families, to catch up and see how much they have grown. For this family session, we had the added fun of a new pet to include! You can see how well the dog has settled in and is already much loved! All the children wanted a picture with him! I always enjoy including pets to a family photo shoot. I’ve had so many different animals including cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, tortoises, pigs, horses and chickens! I might have to drawn the line at a snake as I am not a fan I’m afraid!
Review
I had a very kind five star review on Google following the photo shoot.
“Nicola is friendly, professional, efficient and captures great shots! She makes the whole process very effortless, I highly recommend her!”
Thank you for your kind review. That was so lovely to read. I really enjoyed your session and I’m so glad that you love your portraits as much as I do. I’m sure there is a winner in there for your Christmas card!

Family photography Farnham
This lovely extended family from Farnham really enjoyed their family photography shoot in the autumn colours. We met at Winkworth Arboretum at the end of October. This was a very special gathering to celebrate a milestone birthday. It was very special to have lots of family members there. This included the Grandmother’s much adored the grandchildren.
Before the session we looked at what combinations where important to the family. This is particularly important for large family gatherings. I like to make sure I cover the key groups such as grandparents with grandchildren and other combinations. Sometimes the combinations can be quite extensive but that’s absolutely fine. This is your chance to capture the groups that are important to you.
After their family viewing I had a lovely testimonial from them.
Their thoughts
“We had a family photo session with Nicola as a gift for my Mum’s milestone birthday. It was a wonderful experience from start to end. We had clear advice ahead of the session, the session itself was a great experience and we had numerous fantastic pictures to choose from. We bought a framed picture with multiple prints for my Mum, as well as some digital prints. She was absolutely delighted with the end product. Nicola has been a great find, we couldn’t recommend highly enough and will absolutely be back again in future.“
It was a real treat to be part of you and your family’s celebrations. The children were fantastic, you should be really proud!
Next Steps

Family Photography Session in Surrey
If you are reading this, perhaps you are looking for a Guildford or Surrey family or baby photographer?
It was so much fun to be asked as the Guildford Surrey Family Photographer for Ingrid and family a few weeks ago. The family were delightful and clearly all get on very well, which is so lovely to see. We took time capturing the four generations in lots of combinations. Subsequently they can all enjoy the beautiful portraits for years to come. The star of the day was of course Ingrid’s granddaughter who was a family photographer’s dream to capture. She had a real sparkle in her eye and so sweet so she made my job very easy! She really loved throwing up the autumn leaves which were turning such stunning shades.
We enjoyed walking around the garden, exploring and climbing trees. Family photography sessions are always relaxed and fun. There is no formality. We enjoy letting the children lead the way and show us what they want to do! It’s fun to see where this takes us each of the sessions!
Kind Review
Ingrid said after “We had the most wonderful family photos taken by Nicola. These will be treasured forever.” That’s lovely to hear Ingrid, it really was my pleasure.

It was a treat to return to undertake this family photoshoot Guildford. I was returning to one of my lovely families from Shamley Green near Guildford in Surrey! They have such a beautiful garden which provides plenty of opportunity for fun and games. I adore the summer flowers. If I wasn’t a photographer, I might have been a gardener! I would love to know more about plants, maybe I will pick it up in my retirement! It always seems to be so relaxing. I love to combine people with nature. It makes for a much more interesting composition rather than a studio. The seasons are always to varied here, I do like the changes we see. They always seem to come around at just the right time.
Kind thoughts
Mum Claire said after her session. “This is the fourth year running we have asked Nicola to take family photos for us. Once again we have lots of great photos to choose from. This will help with Grandparents Christmas presents! Thank you Nicola.
My pleasure Claire, I really enjoyed your Family Photoshoot Guildford. It was great to catch up!
