Bath FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER
natural family Photoshoots at home or outdoors across Bath
Hello! I’m Alison, a Bath family photographer specialising in natural, relaxed family photoshoots
I’m a family photographer based near Bath, photographing relaxed family sessions in the city and surrounding villages. Many families choose beautiful locations such as Royal Victoria Park, Alexandra Park, Bath Skyline and the Botanical Gardens, where children have space to explore while we capture natural moments together.
My photo sessions give children the freedom to be themselves whether that means exploring, playing, or simply staying close to you.
I photograph the laughter, the moments of connection and the emotion, bringing these together with a few gently guided portraits and the small details that help tell the story of your time together.
What you’ll come away with is a set of natural, honest photographs that help you remember the closeness, the moments, and the expressions that quickly become memories.
“Alison was warm, professional, and helpful. She made us feel completely at ease during the photoshoot. The photos… wow! We instantly fell in love with every single one of them. They’re full of emotion, exactly what we had hoped for, and more. This shoot turned out to be one of the most meaningful gifts we could give ourselves as a couple and as a family. We’re incredibly grateful and can’t recommend Alison enough!”

What happens during a family photoshoot?
Some families prefer the comfort of home, while others enjoy heading to a local park or green space. Both work beautifully and help keep the photos relaxed and natural.
Your photoshoot lasts around an hour and is more like a gentle family walk together. There’s no pressure to pose or perform. I allow plenty of time for children to explore and interact in their own way.
These photo sessions work well for families with babies, toddlers, and young children, and are planned around real life — energy levels, naps, and the natural rhythm of family life.

Best locations for family photos in Bath
Bath has so many beautiful settings for relaxed family photos, from wide green spaces to quiet corners tucked within the city.
Royal Victoria Park & Botanical Gardens
Royal Victoria Park and the Botanical Gardens are always lovely for family photos. The winding paths, beautiful trees and open lawns give children space to explore while we capture relaxed natural moments together.
Alexandra Park
Alexandra Park offers sweeping views across Bath and beautiful evening light. It’s a wonderful place for relaxed family photos, especially with older children who enjoy a little space to run and explore.
Bathampton Meadows
Bathampton Meadows provides open countryside just beyond the centre of Bath. The wide fields and river views create a peaceful setting for natural family photographs.
Your home or garden
Some families prefer the comfort of home. Photographing your family in your own house or garden often results in the most natural photos of all, especially with younger children.

About Alison Bath Family photographer
I’ve been photographing all kinds of families for over a decade now, working with parents who want natural relaxed photos of their family.
As a mum myself, I understand how quickly these stages pass and how important it is to capture them without adding pressure or expectation.
I spend most of my time either at home with my own family or at work with other families, which means I’m very used to the realities of family life - the unpredictability, the noise, the quiet moments, and everything in between. That familiarity allows me to work calmly and intuitively, creating photographs that feel honest, comfortable, and reflective of your family as you are right now.
I regularly photograph families across Bath and the surrounding areas, and over the years I’ve come to know many of the parks, quiet corners and outdoor spaces that work beautifully for relaxed family photos.
