Family Photography North Yorkshire | Claire Hirst Photography
Because the everyday moments are the ones worth keeping.
Time moves fast. The chaos, the noise, the tiny hands and terrible jokes — before you know it, it's all different. A family shoot with me is less about getting everyone to stand still and more about capturing who you actually are together, right now, at this exact stage of life.
Whether it's a family of two, a house full of kids, dogs that won't behave, or grandparents you want to include — all of it is welcome. The messier the better, honestly.
What to expect
I shoot outdoors on location across North Yorkshire and the surrounding area — parks, woodlands, fields, beaches, wherever suits your family best. Sessions last around an hour to an hour and a half, and I'll guide you the whole way through. Nobody needs to pose. I'll give you things to do — things to laugh at, moments to have together — and I'll quietly capture it all as it unfolds.
Previously working with children for Disney Cruise Lines means I have a few tricks up my sleeve for shy ones, grumpy ones, and the ones who decide they absolutely do not want their photo taken five minutes in. Trust me — I've seen it all, and I always win them over.
Pricing
Sessions start from £350, including shoot time and 15 fully edited high resolution images delivered digitally. Additional images available to purchase separately.
