Serving Bromley
Family sessions run in Church House Gardens, at home, or indoors at the Northwood studio, and we travel out to Beckenham, Chislehurst and Orpington for the same booking. The gardens open straight off the High Street, so the walk in is short, which matters when one adult is pushing a pram and another is carrying a toddler who wants down.
We photograph the full group in the first fifteen minutes, while everyone is still willing, then break it into pairs. Grandparents get their own frames early rather than at the end, when the children have run out of goodwill and the light has usually turned.

What we offer
Sessions in Church House Gardens, at home, or indoors at Northwood when the weather refuses to cooperate.
Group frames done first, while attention holds, then pairs, then the children on their own.
One edited set covering everyone, sized for a large print and for sending round the family.
Twenty-five years behind the lens
Plan for an hour. In poor weather we move the whole booking indoors instead of shortening it, because a cold family photographs as a cold family and no amount of editing undoes that. Sessions booked early in the day generally go better than anything scheduled after a missed nap.
You receive the group frames, the pairs and the loose ones of the children in a single edited set, sized both for a large print and for sending round to relatives, with none of it held back.

Good to know
Newborn sessions work beautifully in baby's first few weeks, while they are at their sleepiest and most settled. We recommend getting in touch during pregnancy so we can pencil in a date around your due date and be ready when baby arrives. For outdoor photographs in Bromley we would suggest Church House Gardens off Bromley High Street, with a lake and the river Ravensbourne nearby.
That is perfectly ordinary and never an issue for us. Tears, squirming and sudden sleepiness are all familiar, so we just stop, help settle your little one and pick up where we left off. Patience means an unsettled moment rarely affects the final photographs. Bromley and neighbouring Beckenham, Orpington and Chislehurst are all covered.
You can indeed. A popular option follows baby right through their first twelve months, starting with newborn photographs and moving through sitting up, first steps and a cake smash at one. Looking back on how quickly your little one changed is a real joy. Around Bromley we plan for landmarks such as Down House near Downe, the former home of Charles Darwin.
It is a first-birthday celebration where your baby digs into a cake of their own. Families in Bromley love them, and we capture the build-up, the glorious mess and the sheer delight as it unfolds. Honestly, it is one of the most joyful sessions around.
You can choose from fine prints, framed wall art, canvases and hand-finished albums, all designed around your favourite images. After your session you view an edited gallery online, then pick the products that suit your home and your family. Getting to Bromley is straightforward for us: Bromley South and Bromley North stations serve the borough, with the A21 running south towards Kent.
Serving Bromley
Our studio is in Northwood, so Bromley (Greater London) is part of our core London area. It sits close to Lewisham and Croydon, which we cover too. Sessions run at the studio or on location in Bromley, and there is no travel charge for local bookings.
A green south-east London borough, the largest by area in Greater London with extensive countryside on the North Downs. Bromley South and Bromley North stations serve the borough, with the A21 running south towards Kent. Sessions on location near Bromley often use Church House Gardens off Bromley High Street, with Down House near Downe close at hand.

Church House Gardens opens off the High Street, and for a family session that matters more than anything inside the gardens does. It means nobody is walked in from a distant car park before the photographs start; you park where you would park to go to the shops, and grandparents who would not manage a long approach on foot arrive with something still in reserve. It also means the session can finish where people already are, so a tired child is close to a chair and a drink rather than a walk back. Keep prams on the surfaced paths. Ground beside a lake or a river holds water long after the rest has drained, so the stretch nearest the Ravensbourne is where wheels stop being useful and somebody ends up carrying. The other decision is what not to attach to the session. A day out to somewhere like Down House near Downe and a photograph of the children on the same afternoon is one thing too many; small children spend their patience on whatever they do first, and the second thing gets the leftovers. Pick one. The useful stretch of a family session is short and it comes early, so we take the grouped, everyone looking frames at the start and let the running about frames come later, not the other way round. When the weather is genuinely bad or the light has already gone, the Northwood studio is the better call, because warm and dry buys back the attention that cold takes away.
