For South Harrow
From Harrow, North Harrow and the wider area, families can visit us for natural portraits that suit babies and children beautifully. Newborn sessions happen in the warm, quiet Northwood studio, paced around feeds and cuddles. Group shots are done early and quickly, before the youngest start to flag.
We watch each child's mood closely and adapt without missing a moment. Every session is built on warmth, reliability and a genuine love of photographing children and families.

What we offer
No forced posing, just the giggles, cuddles and real moments between you and your family.
The full family together, then smaller groups and each child alone, so no one is left out.
Warm, simple backdrops in our welcoming Northwood studio, built to keep even the youngest at ease.
Why choose us
Tears, wriggles and a sudden nap are all part of photographing small children, and we simply work around them. Older children get games and challenges rather than instructions, which is when their personalities show.
Indoors we use simple, warm backdrops; outdoors, on the open grass of a park such as Alexandra Park, we work with soft natural light. Expect a mix of relaxed groups, candid moments and a few portraits of each child, whether at the studio or out at Roxeth Recreation Ground.

Recent work
With small children, a playground for a break and parking close by matter more than a grand backdrop, and Roxeth Recreation Ground has both a car park and a children's playground. Each park and landmark summary below links to the council or reference page it comes from.

Good to know
Your one-year-old is given a cake of their own, and we photograph the first curious poke, the mess and the delight that follows. It is easily among the most fun sessions we offer.
We bring patience, warmth and a relaxed approach that children respond to, with 25+ years of photography behind the camera. Families can come back right through childhood, from a baby's first portraits to multi-generation gatherings, and every session is planned to be one everyone looks forward to.
Yes, gladly. We work out of London and travel to photograph families across the region, South Harrow very much included. That might be at a park you love or in our warm Northwood studio, and the distance to your home is never an obstacle.
Fine prints, framed pieces, canvases and hand-finished albums are all made up from the photographs you pick. After the session an edited gallery goes online, and you choose the prints or wall pieces that suit your home.
Yes. Maternity sessions celebrate this special stage with calm, flattering portraits, in the studio or outdoors. Many families book a maternity session and a newborn session together, so the whole journey from bump to baby is beautifully captured.
Serving South Harrow
South Harrow, in the London Borough of Harrow, has two council parks that suit an outdoor family session: Roxeth Recreation Ground, known locally as Roxeth Park, a Green Flag park with a car park and a children's playground, and Alexandra Park, with gardens and a playground of its own. It sits close to Harrow and North Harrow, which we cover too. Outdoor family sessions in South Harrow are about 3 miles from Northwood, so we do not charge for the journey, and the studio is there if the weather turns.

At the studio
From South Harrow it is about 3 miles to the studio at 21 Joel St, Northwood HA6 1NU, a short drive for a family with a buggy and a change bag. Family sittings there are booked ahead, and prints, frames and old family photographs are handled in house. The studio is open Monday to Saturday from 10:30 to 18:00 and on Sundays from 13:00 to 18:00, which makes a weekend sitting easy to arrange.
Every family session is photographed by Kaushik Bathia, FBIPP and FMPA, who has worked from the Northwood studio since opening it in 2001 and holds five European Kodak Gold Awards.

I was nervous about my newborn's photoshoot but Kaushik made the experience unforgettable. He knew how to handle my two week old baby with care. The pictures came out very beautiful.
