Fun and relaxed family photography in the Scottish Borders and beyond.

Family photoshoots are something to be enjoyed, not endured! We will capture the happiest photos of your family by enjoying a fun day out together and going at a pace that works for you. Whether you have babies, toddlers, big kids, teenagers, grown-up kids, siblings, parents, grandparents, great-grandparents or pets, we will find the perfect location for your shoot where you can relax and be yourselves.

Take a look at some of the Stories of other families who have chosen me as their photographer to get some ideas and inspiration for your own photoshoot! I find that a mixture of candid photography - capturing you and your family as you play, relax, or take part in an activity - along with some posed shots, tends to work best for most families.

Family photoshoots can take place outdoors in the location of your choice, whether that is a favourite local park or scenic spot, urban location, or even your own garden. Photoshoots in the Scottish Borders, Edinburgh, East Lothian and Midlothian are included in my prices. If you have a specific location in mind which is further away, or if you live outwith these areas, I am more than happy to discuss additional travel costs with you.

I have three family photoshoot packages for you to choose from. Each package includes the photoshoot itself and 20 or more high-resolution digital copies of your photographs, edited in my signature style. If you have a large family, I recommend the VIP shoot to make sure we have plenty of time to capture everyone.

Giving the gift of a photoshoot is a fantastic way to celebrate your family or friends and give them memories to keep forever. Photoshoot gift vouchers are available and can even be customised with your personal message. Get in touch to find out more!
