Step 2
When planning your session, think about what you want to cherish most from these photos. Are you celebrating a major milestone—a birthday, a wedding anniversary, or the excitement of an impending arrival? Or maybe you’re simply wanting to capture the beautiful, everyday moments that make your family special “just because.” Whatever your reason, we’ll create images that reflect exactly what you want to remember
Decide who will be there to make this moment even more meaningful. Is it a day for just for a solo parent and your children, or would you like to include the whole immediate family with both parents? Many of my clients also love including grandparents, capturing those precious, timeless bonds across generations.
Don’t forget your furry family members! All my outdoor locations are perfect for bringing along four-legged friends, so your pets can join in on the fun.
No matter who joins you, we’ll make sure the day is relaxed, personal, and all about celebrating your family in the way that feels right to you.

info Before you buy...
01. WHEN SHOULD I BOOK MY SESSION
For a newborn shoot it’s best to book around the time of your 20 weeks scan, to make sure that you get a session at the best possible time for the baby (around 7-14 days old is best). We also always pencil in two dates just incase you go over due!
For bumps, I always advise booking a shoot for around 28-34 weeks and you can book this is in as soon as you feel ready to do so.
For any milestone or family shoot, just book as soon as you’re thinking about it, Peak weekend dates can book up fast.

Nobody wants to be shooting in the rain, or high winds so I can assure you that if we are forecast rain or severe wind our session will simply be postponed to a mutually convenient date. This is usually within the same week where possible, I do not book more than 3 to 4 photo shoots a week to ensure that I have flexibility for the unpredictable, UK weather. This may mean you have booked a weekend date but may be offered a mid week date due to the weather .I will usually leave it until the day of the shoot to make the call as the weather can change very quickly. If you are travelling from further afield, we may make the decision slightly further in advance.

There is nothing quite like capturing your photos as the sunsets. An evening in the sun is by far the world’s best antidote to busy family life.. Revel in your children’s excited faces as they realise they have skipped bedtime and let them show you how to relax, after all children are the masters of play.
There is no way to fake the gorgeous sun flares you see in all my outdoor work.
I know it can be daunting, keeping your children up, but with the right prep, late in the day car naps and a quiet day at home before hand it really is worth it. Treat it as the adventure it is, just for one night.

"Carley IS magic"
The Barnes Faamily
If you would love nothing more than beautiful and NATURAL photos of you and your family, Carley is your girl. She also stole the heart of my cheeky 8 year old son who bonded with my daughter instantly.
I am so pleased that I chose Carley as our family photographer as she truly captured our family's personality.
"We had the best experience "
Halpen Family
We had the best experience with Carley - our kids just smile when they hear her name and see the pictures! Carley was so calm and patient despite us being in a rush and with an over tired toddler. Easy to communicate with all the time. We got the most beautiful images with the best memories.
literally the best!
Hannah & Rich
Carley is literally the best! She took our family photos last summer and I ADORE every single one of them. Not only is she the most talented photographer, she is also incredible with kids and managed to take incredible pictures of my camera shy boy. I couldn't recommend her enough. And if you're thinking about booking her, this is your sign to do it! Don't wait any longer.
