Family photoshoot at Leigh Woods in Bristol

Leigh Woods in Bristol is a lovely location for a family photoshoot with all its tall trees and peaceful trails, I did a session for this little family recently. Madison had just turned one and was she was right at that stage of exploring everything, taking her first wobbly steps, and getting fascinated by the tiniest details. Watching little ones take in the world around them is always so beautiful to see and I loved being able to document these special moments for the family.

A huge milestone for any little one is learning to walk, and I was lucky enough to capture this moment in her life! You can see the  determination and satisfaction on her face as she figures it all out, it’s the sweetest thing!

There’s also something about kids and leaves – they always seem to be fascinated by them. This little one was no different, totally mesmerized by the colors and textures. These simple, natural interactions are what make lifestyle family photography so meaningful – it’s about real moments, rather than stiff poses.

If you’re thinking about booking a family shoot, I can’t recommend Leigh Woods enough. It’s peaceful, gorgeous in every season, and gives kids plenty of space to explore. Plus, the natural setting means your photos will feel relaxed and organic, not overly posed. Whether it’s autumn leaves, spring blossoms, or summer greenery, this place is a winner all year round!

I love helping families freeze these little moments in time because they go by so fast! If you’re looking for a fun, laid-back family photoshoot in Bristol, get in touch! Whether it’s a milestone like a first birthday or just an ordinary day full of love, I’d love to help you capture it in a way that feels natural and true to you.
