Welcome to one of Essex's premier autumn photography shooters, where transparency, quality, and customer satisfaction are our hallmarks.
Our photoshoots aim to encapsulate the essence of your family against the backdrop of Essex's breathtaking autumn foliage. You have the option to select from a range of exclusive, scenic locations that we've carefully curated over the years (see more below). Whether your family enjoys hiking or simply taking in the beauty of the outdoors, we can recommend spots that align perfectly with your interests.
As parents ourselves, we recognize the importance of creating a relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere, especially for kids. That's why our sessions are not just skillfully directed but also full of fun and games to keep everyone engaged—even your pets are welcome to join!
Upon your arrival at our agreed location:- A re-cap on what we'll do, a route if necessary; we'll always consider those who may also be mobility impaired. - Typically we will document but also help make some posting suggestions or to direct you through areas of great light to help enhance the final results- Hopefully some outdoor fun for the children that we can integrate into the photography- I'll be sharing photographic images as we go(via the rear of the screen) to give you a sense of how the images are coming out.
After capturing your family’s autumnal magic, we swiftly proceed to the editing phase.We carefully sift through the shots, eliminating any unflattering or distracting pages where something may have entered the background for example.Then we expertly retouch the selected photos. You'll receive a secure digital gallery from which you can download your high-quality images—unlike other providers, you get ALL the photos, not just a select few.
Our upfront deposit for the session is £50, which will be deducted from your final order. For information on pricing you have two options for family outdoor photo sessions, please see the pricing page here.
