What if you could get beautiful, professional family photos in a short, home session—at a fraction of the cost?

I know that a family photoshoot with an experienced professional photographer is a big investment. That’s why I’ve created a shorter, more affordable weekday session for families local to me in the Dulwich area—perfect for those with newborns and active pre-schoolers who want beautiful, professional photos without the full session commitment.

The session costs £250, including 10 digital images.

This session is perfect for you if…

This session is perfect for documenting those first few months of babyhood in a relaxed home setting or capturing the first interactions between your baby and their overly excited siblings. These early moments pass quickly, and a short, natural photoshoot is a beautiful way to remember them.
As exhausting as they can be, those toddler years are wild. I miss hanging around with a small person acting like they’re drunk at all times! It’s such a premium time to photograph—full of personality, mischief, and fleeting moments you’ll want to remember, especially before the next big transition to school.
If your partner is anything like mine and refuses to be in a family photoshoot, this is your chance to get some beautiful mum & baby photographs—without the pressure of a full session.
Whether they’ve just started smiling, sitting up, eating solids or taking their first steps, these fleeting moments deserve to be remembered. A mini session is a simple way to document this special stage before it’s gone.
If you, like me, are always the one behind the camera, let’s change that. This session gives you the chance to be present in beautiful, professional photos with your family—no selfies required.

Hello, I’m Fran. I’m an award-winning photographer based in Dulwich, specialising in reportage-style photography. I'm passionate about capturing what real family feels like.

I work with modern families who value authentic, meaningful photographs but feel uneasy about posing or staging. Through my relaxed home photoshoots, I capture the beauty of everyday family life, creating timeless images that are deeply personal and uniquely yours.

For the last two years, I’ve been ranked among the top 10 documentary family photographers in the UK. My work has been featured in Vogue and Grazia.

Same ethos. Same quality. Only £250

A child-led, relaxed photoshoot experience—perfect for busy households with small children. No need to tidy, buy special clothes, or worry about getting the kids to ‘behave.’
An opportunity to spend quality time with your children, free from distractions. Long enough to capture a variety of authentic moments, yet short enough to keep little ones engaged.
The session costs £250 and includes a 45-minute photoshoot at your home, plus 10 edited images of your choice from a private online gallery. You’ll also have the option to upgrade your package once you’ve seen the photos.
This is a weekday session available for families living in Dulwich, Peckham, Herne Hill and surrounding areas.

FAQs

The photoshoot is unposed and lasts about 45 minutes, allowing plenty of time for natural moments to unfold. Depending on the age of your children, the session will revolve around a few favourite family activities. If you have a baby, I will give minor direction to maximise the available light and colour palettes.
One of the great things about reportage-style photoshoots is that no preparation is needed—no tidying up or buying special outfits. Before our session, I'll send you a short, thoughtful questionnaire to learn about your family and what matters most to you. You'll also receive expert guidance on what to expect, helping you feel confident and at ease on the day.
Wear whatever you feel comfortable in! The most important thing is that you’re relaxed and being yourselves. You’ll receive more guidance on this in your session guide.
Rest assured, this is not an issue. As an experienced documentary photographer, I’m skilled in working with any light or space, using compositional techniques to elevate the photographs, no matter the environment. My ethos focuses on capturing real moments and emotions, not perfectly styled spaces.
There is no need to postpone the shoot if someone has a minor illness, such a cold. However, if it’s something more serious, we can postpone once at no extra cost.
Simply choose your date and time and reserve your spot directly from my booking site. A £75 deposit is required to secure your slot (this is non-refundable, but the session can be postponed once at no extra cost), with the balance due on the day of the session.
Your edited photographs will be delivered in a private online gallery, ready within 2-3 weeks of your session. From there, you can select your favourite 10 images included in your package or choose to upgrade to the full digital archive.
