Hi, I’m Pamila (and yes, there really is an Ian too — he’s usually behind the camera, which is why he’s not in this photo!).

Together we’ve spent over 12 years creating natural newborn, maternity and family photography for families across Oxfordshire and the Cotswolds. Whether sessions take place outdoors, in the studio or in the comfort of your home, our focus is always on capturing genuine connection, real emotion and the little moments that make this season of life so special.

Our sessions are designed to feel calm and enjoyable, with plenty of space for children to play, parents to relax and personalities to shine naturally. The result is timeless photography that feels warm, honest and full of meaning — images that become more valuable with every passing year.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if my toddler won’t cooperate or sit still during the session?

Please do not worry—this is completely normal! We never expect young children to sit perfectly still and pose. Our sessions are entirely child-led, relaxed, and fun. We focus on capturing genuine smiles and games, so you can just relax and enjoy the moment while we handle the rest.

How far in advance should we book our session?

To secure your preferred date, we recommend booking around your 20-week scan for newborn portraits, or 4 to 6 weeks in advance for family sessions. However, babies rarely arrive on time, so we always keep a flexible schedule to accommodate early or late arrivals.

How long after our session will it take to see our photos?

Your images are carefully hand-edited to our highest professional standards. Within two-three weeks of the session you will be invited to a guided viewing session over a Teams call where you can choose your favourites from the comfort of your home.
