A fun experience
The session will be interaction based.
I won’t be formally posing you but gently guide movement and connection, with a focus on natural interaction.
We'll walk, climb, cuddle, have snacks, play hide and seek among the trees, chase the light and follow whatever mood your family arrives with.
The best photos only happen when you immerse yourself in the experience, play, get silly and enjoy being out with your favourite people.
The softest light
We will begin shooting 60 minutes before sunset and continue 30 minutes into the sunset, capturing the magic of the golden hour.
Because these sessions rely on weather and light, you'll choose a primary and a back-up date and we will be as flexible as needed based on what the weather is looking like that week.
Available June-August only.

What to expect from a Golden Hour session
"We met Anna in Summer 2025 as a family of four on a hot(!) day on Wimbledon Common. She was brilliant, so patient and encouraging with our toddler and had lots of tricks for getting our baby to engage! Her photography style made us feel really comfortable and relaxed, and she captured some beautiful shots of us as a family, an impressive feat with two tiny people! Thank you so much Anna, such special memories captured!!"

Only buy what you genuinely love.
 
What should we wear?
 
Soft neutrals, faded denim, linen, creams, sage, dusty blue, white are the classic vibes.
If you are a dopamine dresser I'm all about it! Bring on the colours. But please avoid busy floral patterns, logos or anything that might distract the eye.
Aim to match within a colour palette rather than matching the same colours.
Think: bright and joyful, comfortable enough for sitting on grass and carrying small children.
 
What if my child refuses?
Very normal.
We’ll adapt.
Running around, cuddles, snacks, being carried, flower picking and bubbles can turn any frown upside down.
Your child doesn’t need to perform.
