Our Beautiful Family Photoshoots

A great experience

Photoshoots should be really light-hearted and fun, so we do everything we can to make sure your experience is one that you and your family will really enjoy. We want your whole family to feel involved, so no matter how young or old each person is, if they have their own ideas then we love to hear about these, as that way everyone gets stuck in and really enjoys themselves. We know this works, because on many occasions parents have written to us afterwards to tell us how much their children enjoyed themselves and that they were sad once it ended. We're confident you'll enjoy the experience, even if you're feeling slightly nervous or uncertain beforehand. We're very used to chatting with families and children, so we'll help put you all at ease really quickly so that you can all enjoy yourselves.

I felt very comfortable in front of the camera and was very impressed with the amount of information given prior to the shoot. You had done your research before and knew exactly the shots that you wanted. I also felt very relaxed in adding my own input for photos that I would want too. I would really recommend you. I received a great mixture of photos. The lighting in all of them is very good and the locations work well with the style of shots. They were also of a high quality. I was very impressed!

Really patient with Jaz and able to think on the spot quickly when a particular shot just wasn't happening because of her distraction. The experience was really good for me and Jaz - she definitely had a fabulous time! Lovely photos and received in a quick turnaround. I think it was a great experience for Jaz and we have some lovely pics.

Steve is fantastic with children, he is relaxed and patient. Steve was happy for my daughter to express herself with her own poses in addition to what he had in mind. My daughter had a lot of fun flicking her hair around for a shot. Steve is organised and manages his time well. The photos are very natural, Steve didn't over photoshop them. I would without a doubt recommend Steve Pitman, the photos were beautiful. The crisp quality and superb focus were truly pleasing. The array of different shots gave us a wide variety of choice, from close up to full length and half way in between. Because you made Twinkle feel extremely comfortable, I haven't seen her so comfortable with any other photographer and we have worked with quite a few. I am very pleased with the pictures, I wasn't expecting them to be such good quality. Steve is fantastic with children, he is relaxed and patient.

Steve is not only friendly but also very professional (which I feel really helps getting more confident on the shoot). The photos I received from Steve were outstanding, he really helped me on the day of the shoot to get poses that would look good, and that really showed on the pictures. The editing is also wonderful, giving a natural yet sophisticated look. I'm honestly very happy with the resulting pictures from the shoot, but also had a very good time whilst we were shooting.

I really enjoyed working with you as the atmosphere was comfortable and there was no rushing or pressure. I liked being given direction in what looks best on camera and seeing how different poses or backgrounds worked best. The photos are of a high quality and they came out really well. We took many different kinds of photos that displayed various facial expressions amongst different backgrounds. The atmosphere was really nice and I had fun.

Steve was amazing at making myself and my dog feel at ease, he understood if the dog wasn’t quite getting what he was suggesting so we did something different but equally as beautiful. Very patient and comfortable, great ideas of where to go, very professional and friendly. Steve really knows how to make your dog look great too! Steve has provided some great quality photos that really highlight the ginger of my dogs coat, captured some amazing emotions and moments with my puppy. The backgrounds he selected came out brilliant, focusing on the dog but creating a lovely atmosphere behind him also. Such great pictures I’m so pleased with them. Amazing quality photos and a great experience all round, both me and my dog loved it!
