Family Photography in Hertfordshire

Family photography studio in Hatfield, Hertfordshire.

Family sessions are a beautiful way to hold on to the moments you never want to forget. My aim is to capture the emotion and connection that make your family yours. During every session, I look for the small details that show who you are as a family. The moments when you feel relaxed, at ease, and completely yourselves. When you forget the setting and simply enjoy being together.

Whether you are cuddling your child, sharing a quiet joke with your partner, or tickling a toddler who cannot stop laughing, these are the memories that deserve to be photographed. As a family photographer, I believe a family photography session should show more than how you look. It should reveal your story and the powerful emotions that come with raising children.

What to expect from a family session with Megan Foster Photography

During your family photography session, I guide you toward the best light and let you settle into the moment. You cuddle, play, explore, and simply enjoy being together while I quietly capture every snuggle, smile, and gentle laugh. There is no need to worry about posing or forced expressions. Each family photoshoot is calm and natural so I can create photographs that feel true to you.

The session fee is £100 and is required to secure your date. Digital collections and artwork can be purchased separately at your viewing appointment one week after your session.

If you would like to know more about the family session experience, please get in touch. I would love to chat.

Why family photography matters

family photography is more than a simple smile for the camera. It is about connection, love, and the small imperfect moments that become your memories. The way your child looks at you, the sound of their laughter, the quiet pauses that remind you how precious this time is. These are the moments worth remembering. As a family photographer in Hertfordshire I want your images to feel like your family. There are no stiff poses and no forced smiles. Every family photoshoot is relaxed and natural so your personalities can shine through. When you look at your photographs, I want you to see real emotion, genuine joy, and the beauty of your life right now.

My approach to family sessions

Every family is unique, and that is what makes each family photography session special. My approach is gentle and simple. I guide you to the best light and let everything unfold naturally. You cuddle, play, and enjoy being together while I document it all in a quiet and thoughtful way. I love soft colours, natural light, and honest emotion. Whether it is a quiet moment between you and your child or a burst of laughter that arrives out of nowhere, I will create images that tell your story. My goal is always the same. Timeless portraits that feel personal, effortless, and filled with love. If you are unsure what to wear, I can help. I have a small studio wardrobe with simple neutral pieces that photograph beautifully and I am always happy to offer styling advice before your session.
