- Getting to the studio: Measured in a straight line, the studio on The Broadway in Northwood is about 5 miles from Uxbridge, and the drive is a little further.
- How to book: Call 07956 505383, send a WhatsApp message to the same number, or use the enquiry form on this page.
Family sessions cover Uxbridge and the area round it, including West Drayton, Cowley and Denham, and Fassnidge Park suits them: surfaced paths, a playground and open green sit together there, and a session can be built around a young child's stamina.
Sessions suit parents with young children, and grandparents are welcome to come along for the day. Clothing is the one thing worth deciding beforehand: a family dressed in a narrow range of related colours photographs as a group, whereas everybody in their own bright shade photographs as five separate people who happen to be standing near each other.

We have been to Kaushik’s studio over many years for photos for passport renewals. He is very professional and has always taken the best pictures. We booked a family session recently and he did an amazing job and put us at ease for the portrait shots. Beautiful and artistic photos. We are very pleased with them. We would highly recommend his services.
I would HIGHLY recommend Northwood Hills Studios to anyone who wants to do family photos or special occasion photos.
…Kaushik has photographed our family on a number of occasions, and the experience has always been fantastic. Not only is the time that he spends with us very enjoyable, it is also a very relaxed experience as Kaushik manages to take phenomenal photos of you and your family in your everyday environment. Therefore, the photos always look very natural and relaxed.
What we offer
Family photography in Uxbridge
Newborn and baby sittings
Newborns, toddlers, teenagers and three generations in one visit, at whatever pace the youngest can actually sustain.
Everyone in one frame
One gallery shared with everybody who came, sized for large prints and for emailing to family further away.
Family photography by Kaushik since 2001
Relaxed sessions children enjoy
Nothing is rehearsed and nobody is drilled into position. We keep the family walking, talking and getting in each other's way, and photograph what results, which is why the pictures look like the people in them.
There is no posing list to grind through and no instruction to say cheese. Every adult in the party receives the same finished gallery, so grandparents are not left waiting for a forwarded file, and prints come at a size that suits a frame.

Good to know
Family Photographer in Uxbridge, FAQs
Yes. Fassnidge Park is one option, with its surfaced paths, its playground and enough open green for a large group. Denham, West Drayton and Cowley are covered too. Say how many children are coming and how old they are when the session is arranged, so we can suggest a starting point that suits the youngest rather than the adults.
Most sessions take about an hour, though we never rush to finish. With newborns or toddlers we allow extra time for feeds, naps and cuddles. Children set the pace, and in Fassnidge Park there is a playground on hand whenever anyone needs a break.
The first two weeks are ideal, while newborns are at their sleepiest and settle easily. Getting in touch during pregnancy is the easiest route, as we can pencil in a date around your due date and be ready when baby arrives.
It is a cheerful way to mark a first birthday. Your baby is given a cake of their own, and we photograph the anticipation, the mess and the delight. It is easily among the most fun sessions we offer.
We certainly do. Milestone sessions mark each step, from sitting unaided to first steps and the first birthday. Book several across the year and you have a record of each stage as it passed.

Visiting the studio from Uxbridge
The studio at The Broadway, 21 Joel St, Northwood HA6 1NU is roughly 5 miles from Uxbridge, a short drive for a session indoors.

Families can book a studio sitting Monday to Saturday between 10:30 and 18:00, or on Sunday between 13:00 and 18:00, which leaves weekend afternoons free for school-age children.
Kaushik Bathia, FBIPP and FMPA, photographs each family session himself; he opened the Northwood studio in 2001 and has five European Kodak Gold Awards.
