Families // Portraiture

Family portrait photography in London and Cambridge

As part of your children's portrait session , I will also take a number of family portrait photos and sibling photos. I like to keep these as relaxed and informal as possible, while still ensuring that all members of the family are in the frame. I like to photograph your family doing the things you enjoy - playing games with each other, laughing and joking together. These family pictures will capture the relationships between family members and ensure you have some great images of you all together.

Please take a look at the children's portraiture section and our frequently asked questions section for more information about my approach to family and children's photography.

Extended family portrait sessions

I also really enjoy extended family photo shoots, which include several generations of the family coming together for a special set of photos. These shoots can include grandchildren, children, parents, grandparents, great grandparents – the more the merrier! Sometimes these photo shoots are arranged to help celebrate a special occasion like a wedding anniversary or birthday, or often just as a lovely way to spend a morning together as a family with the added benefit of capturing a set of natural, fun family pictures that will be treasured for many years to come.

What happens after your family portrait session

I want you to enjoy your photographs for many years to come. To help you have the best quality photographs in the best format as quickly as possible, a member of the Helen Bartlett Photography team will contact you soon after your portrait shoot to arrange a viewing session at your home. The aim of this session is to show you what is possible with your photographs, and you will see samples of our high-quality bespoke photo albums, unframed and framed prints, canvas wraps, contemporary aluminum mounts and acrylic reverses to help choose how you would like to present your pictures to enjoy for many years to come.

At your viewing session, you will be shown the photographs from your portrait session on a large screen and look at an album design, ideas for multi-aperture frames and sequences of prints or canvases that I will prepare for you. By having the viewing session in your home, we can advise you on which products in which size will compliment your home. You can order at your viewing session, and there is a ten percent discount should you wish to do so. Please refer our prices and products page for more information regarding the high-quality bespoke products that we offer.

My aim is to make everything as easy as possible - relaxed, fun photo shoots that record your family in a way that will hold real memories for you and your children, and then years of enjoyment from your pictures.
