Kristine & Jana – Family Photographer Leicester
Last week I had the pleasure of photographing Kristine and her daughter Jana during a relaxed outdoor session as a family photographer in Leicester.
Mother-and-daughter photo sessions are something I had not photographed before, but after hearing Kristine’s ideas and seeing the connection between them, I instantly knew this would be a special shoot.
I naturally prefer photographing people outdoors rather than in a traditional studio environment. Working with natural light, real interaction, and relaxed moments allows sessions to feel more genuine and comfortable — especially during the soft evening light just before sunset.
After finding a beautiful field in the Leicestershire countryside, we spent the evening creating a collection of natural and relaxed photographs together.
Relaxed Family Photographer Leicester
As a family photographer in Leicester, I prefer creating relaxed outdoor sessions that feel natural rather than heavily posed. Photographing families in open spaces using natural light allows moments and personalities to unfold more comfortably. Whether it’s a quiet family session, parent-and-child photographs, or relaxed portraits in the Leicestershire countryside, my approach is always documentary-led and focused on genuine connection.
Outdoor family photography sessions are always relaxed and unhurried, allowing children and families to feel comfortable without too much direction or posing. I love documenting genuine interaction, movement, and emotion naturally while making the most of the evening light and surrounding landscape. These sessions are perfect for families wanting natural photographs that feel real and timeless.
Sessions like these are a great way to capture real memories together in a relaxed and natural environment without the pressure of a formal studio setup.
I now mainly specialise in documentary wedding photography in Leicester, but I still enjoy photographing relaxed family sessions outdoors. If you are looking for a relaxed family photographer in Leicester, feel free to get in touch.
