Relaxed family photography in Ealing Broadway
- What the session includes: Natural portraits and candid moments of everyone together, from newborns to grandparents, paced for the youngest, then a private online gallery to choose your favourites.
- Studio or location: Studio sittings in Northwood, or a relaxed shoot outdoors within about 20 miles.
- How far: Ealing Broadway is about 8 miles from the studio at 21 Joel St, Northwood HA6 1NU, measured in a straight line; the road distance is longer.
- How to book: Ring or WhatsApp 07956 505383 during opening hours (Monday to Saturday 10:30 to 18:00, Sunday 13:00 to 18:00), or leave your details in the form below.
Expect a relaxed run: the full group first, then smaller pairings, then a little unstructured play while Kaushik picks up the natural moments. Gentle direction keeps a toddler involved without demanding stillness, and snack breaks are part of the plan rather than an interruption.
Your online gallery follows the session and you choose favourites at your own speed. The favourites you choose are retouched naturally and supplied web-ready and print-ready, and prints, frames, canvases and albums can be ordered for your walls or for relatives.

…The gentleman took my family and I last minute for a photoshoot. Although we were running extremely late as we had a newborn, he waited patiently for us. He initially said he could only do 30 minutes because we were late but he ended up spending the entire hour and some minutes making sure we had the best photos.
We had our family portraits done many years ago with Kaushik Bathia and we loved them so we have now returned again this time with new additions to the family. On all the occasions we went Kaushik Bathia has taken care of everyone and made everyone laugh and smile especially the children in order to get the best photos.
We had a family shoot at the studio, Kaushik took some wonderful photos. He was excellent with the kids and was very good at making them smile naturally, the end results were brilliant. We purchased a canvas and 2 further large framed photos. All completed on time and to perfection. Very pleased.

The right photographer for your family
Babies, toddlers, parents and grandparents all get time in front of the lens, so nobody is missing from the family set. Young children rarely follow a plan, so tears, wriggles and unexpected naps are taken in good humour.
Sessions can take place in our Northwood studio or outdoors in a park your family loves, whichever suits you best. Outdoor family sessions use nearby parks and green spaces, where everyone can relax, run about and play.

Family Photographer in Ealing Broadway, FAQs
Probably not, and that is fine. Toddler sessions are run at the child's pace, with the group frame taken quickly while interest is high and the rest built around play. In Walpole Park there is space to run between pictures, and in the studio a favourite toy or snack usually buys the few seconds needed.
Once favourites are chosen in the online gallery, the family can order prints, frames, canvases and albums from them. A large framed print of the whole family suits a living room wall, while an album keeps the smaller moments together. You also receive web-ready and print-ready files of the images you choose.
After the session the family receives a link to an online gallery to browse together. Take your time choosing favourites, as there is no pressure to decide on the spot. Your selected family images are then retouched with a natural touch and supplied as web-ready and print-ready files.

Family guides for Ealing Broadway
Family guides from our journal for parents planning a session from Ealing Broadway.
Families from Ealing Broadway have Walpole Park on the doorstep, and for a family session it offers room to roam without leaving the town centre behind. The 28 acres around Pitzhanger Manor include open lawns for running children and shaded paths for a calmer stroll with a grandparent, and the manor itself houses a cafe, which is useful when a toddler needs a snack halfway through. Haven Green, beside the station, is a smaller open space for a short session with very young children who will not walk far. Light under the trees is soft but can turn green on skin in high summer, so the best family groups are made at the edge of the shade, facing open sky. Plan clothes in two or three toning colours rather than identical outfits, and leave big logos at home. If the forecast is poor, or the family includes a newborn who needs warmth and quiet, the Northwood studio is the better setting. It is about 8 miles from Ealing Broadway, two minutes' walk from Northwood Hills station, and there is parking close by. Sessions run at the children's pace from start to finish, with nobody hurried, and grandparents, aunts and cousins are all welcome in the frame.
