Our Unique Approach to Family Photography:
Your family photoshoot will be a fun and enjoyable experience for everyone! During your one-hour session, we will have plenty of time for outfit changes, different poses, and lots of laughs. We’ll guide you every step of the way, ensuring that each image showcases your family’s best moments.
We believe in collaboration, so you tell us what you’d like from your photoshoot, and we’ll add our creative touch to make your vision a reality. Our aim is to create stunning images that reflect the personalities and bonds of your loved ones, resulting in a set of photographs you’ll treasure forever.
Just the Kids: A Fun Photoshoot for Little Ones:
If you’re looking for a photoshoot that focuses solely on your children, we’ve got you covered! Our friendly photographers will make sure the little ones have plenty of fun while capturing their natural energy and personality.
Whether it’s running around, playing with props, or simply letting them be themselves, we know how to create a relaxed environment where children can feel comfortable and carefree. You can take a step back and enjoy watching them have a blast while we work to capture those precious moments. It’s all about creating beautiful images that showcase the true essence of your children, whether they’re shy or outgoing, giggly or thoughtful.
The Importance of Family Photos: Celebrating Connection:
Having family photos on your wall is more than just decorating your home; it’s about creating a legacy of connection. Children feel valued and important when they see their family celebrated in photographs. These images remind them of the love and support that surrounds them, fostering a sense of belonging.
Family portraits help to strengthen bonds and create a sense of continuity for future generations. When your children see their moments captured alongside siblings, parents, or even extended family, it helps them understand the importance of their place within the family story.
These cherished images serve as a constant reminder of the relationships that matter most, and they create a warm, welcoming atmosphere that fills your home with love.
Involving Extended Family & Generations: Cherishing Time Together:
At Picture Partnership, we believe in making the most of the moments we have right now, especially when it comes to capturing multi-generational memories. Involving extended family in your photoshoot, whether it’s grandparents, uncles, aunts, or cousins, is an incredibly special way to celebrate your family’s unique connection.
Time flies by, and we never know what tomorrow may bring, so there’s no better time than now to make lasting memories together. Our photographers know how to bring people together for photos that reflect the bonds shared across generations.
Whether it’s a portrait of the entire extended family or candid shots of loved ones sharing a moment, these images will help preserve the legacy of your family for years to come. Let’s capture the love, joy, and togetherness that define your family’s story.
Perfect for All Family Types & Occasions:
From celebrating a special birthday or capturing the joy of your grandchildren, to photographing the entire family or simply focusing on the bond between you and your children, we’ve got you covered.
Our professional photographers know how to make every family member feel at ease, creating a relaxed environment that results in natural, heartfelt images.
Family Sessions on Location: Capturing Natural Moments Outdoors:
If you’re looking for a more relaxed and natural environment for your family photos, we offer location-based photoshoots in addition to our studio sessions.
Whether it’s a beautiful environmental shoot in the woods, the comfort of your own home, or in the garden, we can capture your family’s special moments outside of the studio. The natural backdrop adds a unique touch to your photos, allowing for more candid, fun, and relaxed moments.
We are fortunate to have lovely locations nearby, such as Coombe Woods or Shirley/Addington Hills, where children can run around, explore, and let off some steam while we capture the joy and energy of the day. We always keep an eye on the weather and can suggest the best spots to create stunning images, whether it’s sunny, cloudy, or even a little drizzly. These location sessions are perfect for families who want to embrace nature and create memories in a more expansive setting.
We want to capture moments that are truly meaningful to you, so you can enjoy looking back on them for years to come.

2 – Pre-Consult:
We discuss your ideas and visions for your photoshoot, taking the time to understand your style preferences and planning any specific details you would like to incorporate into the shoot.
We offer flexibility by providing consultations in-person or over the phone, and for your convenience, we also send out a detailed questionnaire to ensure we capture your exact needs.
We will also ask if you are looking for wall art, albums, prints or digitals so we ensure we deliver you with the perfect set of photos to suit.

We believe that in-person sales provide the best experience and allow us to guide you through the process of selecting your images and products. About a week later we invite you back to the studio for a viewing appointment, where we’ll present a curated gallery of around 20-50 images from your photoshoot, depending on your chosen service.
Our photographers will carefully select the best shots with examples of subtle retouching to ensure they look absolutely perfect. We’ll then create a slideshow for you to enjoy with a cuppa, as you decide on the images you’d like to order.
