Natural, relaxed family photography for families across Somerset

Somerset family photographer

I’m Alison, a family photographer creating beautiful natural photos for families across Somerset. I regularly work all over the county photographing families either at home or outdoors, wherever everyone feels most comfortable.

Family life moves quickly. One minute they’re small enough to scoop up, the next they’re racing ahead. As a family photographer working across Somerset, my sessions focus on capturing families exactly as they are right now - before it quietly becomes a memory.

How my family photography sessions work

My family photography sessions in Somerset last around an hour and are more like a relaxed family walk than a photoshoot. A couple of weeks later after your session, you receive a private online gallery with a collection of lovely edited images to view, share and choose from - FIND OUT MORE

family photography locations in somerset

Somerset is full of beautiful spots for relaxed, natural family photography, from open countryside and rolling hills to charming villages and woodland walks. Some favourite places include Chew Valley Lake, the Mendip Hills, Clevedon seafront, Berrow Beach, and the Black Nore Lighthouse coastline in Portishead. Or we can simply meet somewhere familiar - your home, garden, or a local park your family loves best.
