For Haringey
Family photography for Haringey
Nothing is posed for the first stretch. We walk, the children do what they do, and the frames that survive come out of that rather than out of instructions. The formal one, everybody together and facing the same way, gets taken while the youngest still has patience left.
You get the set edited in colour, with any frame that suits it also given a black and white version. Prints and albums can follow later; the files come first and they come at a size that will not fall apart when enlarged.

Experience that shows in Haringey
We give every generation a moment in the pictures, from a grandparent's lap to a toddler's first steps. We balance a few relaxed group portraits with plenty of natural, candid moments between the generations.
Milestone sessions at sitting, crawling and walking make sense because each looks entirely different, and a baby changes more in a year than most people do in a decade. Families who came for a newborn session often return at the first birthday, and the two sets are edited to sit together as one continuous story.

Family Photographer in Haringey, FAQs
There is plenty to choose from: fine prints, framed wall art, canvases and hand-finished albums, all built around the images you love best. Once your Haringey session is done, you browse an edited gallery online and select whatever suits your home and family.
Yes. Haringey is a standard booking rather than a special arrangement, and everything needed fits in the car. Sessions here usually go in the last two hours before sunset in summer, and nearer the middle of the day in winter. Bring snacks, a spare jumper for whoever will inevitably need one, and let us start at your front door if that is easier than meeting somewhere.
Yes, and newborn sessions happen at your address in Haringey rather than anywhere else, because a baby that age should not be travelling and the room has to be warmer than a studio is ever kept. We bring wraps, a beanbag and the lighting, work around feeds instead of a schedule, and allow two to three hours, most of which is waiting for a sleeping baby to cooperate.
They do not need to. We never expect toddlers to sit still and smile on command, so instead we turn the session into play and photograph the genuine moments. Some of our favourite images come from children who are busy being themselves. Around Haringey we plan for landmarks such as Alexandra Palace, the Victorian entertainment venue known as Ally Pally.
Yes. In Haringey they are done either at home or on the flat ground near the boating lake, and the hill above it is best left alone at that stage: a long uphill approach into wind is nobody's idea of a comfortable afternoon late in a pregnancy. Around thirty two to thirty six weeks is the window that works. Bring one fitted layer and one loose one.

The first practical question about Alexandra Park is not where to stand but how everybody gets up to where the standing happens. The view exists because the ground climbs to it, and a pushchair shoved up a slope by an adult already carrying a bag will spend more of a three year old's patience than the photography ever will. Plan the climb and it costs nothing. Ignore it and the session opens with a tired child and a short-tempered parent. Where a grandparent cannot manage a gradient, the sensible arrangement is to work within sight of wherever the car is left and walk the family down to them, which the open grassland makes easy: there is no one correct backdrop up there, so the session can move to the people instead of the other way round. The boating lake earns its place for a different reason. Small children will watch water for far longer than they will watch us, so it buys the settled stretch needed for the one frame with the entire family in it, and that frame is worth making early while everyone is still fresh. Loose, moving pictures come afterwards on the grass, when nobody has to hold anything. Two things push a family session indoors instead. Height means wind, and wind on open ground is genuinely cold on a baby whatever the forecast claims the temperature is. And for children under school age, a long drive out to Northwood costs more attention than a controlled room ever gives back.
