London Family Photography with Teenagers in Hampstead Heath

As a North London family photographer, I’ve had the privilege of working with this family many times over the years, documenting the precious changes as children grow up and family bonds deepen. My third session with this beautiful family was particularly special. With two teenagers, our photoshoot took place in one of London’s most stunning natural settings—Hampstead Heath. Known for its mix of heathland, enchanting woodlands, and breathtaking views of the city, Hampstead Heath offers a perfect setting for capturing candid, relaxed moments that highlight the unique personalities of teenagers.

The drama of parenting with its moments of intimacy, abandon, sweetness and laughter is something that informs my family photography. I love meeting families year after year, capturing up close they way families express their love, their inside jokes, their upset or their joy; an honest depiction of family ties.

Family photo shoot on Hampstead Heath in North London

A family photo is not simply a stroll down memory lane, it's a powerful portrait of how LOVE works. The belly laughs, the big kisses, the tenderness of reaching hands, and the togetherness are the essence of this incredible journey some call parenthood. So if you've ever thought that your children are hard to photograph, let me change your mind and show you just how incredible your family is!

The toddler stage is undeniably the cutest stage - the baby talk, the expressions, the absolute attitude, fearless curiosity, cuddles and endlessly kissable cheeks. It’s big, it’s bold and it’s fierce, and it’s just something you can’t always appreciate when you’re in the thick of it. However the muscle memory of the toddler that never wants to leave your arms will never fade away. The best thing to do is lean into it, enjoy it and create memories that will mean the most to you and your little one.

Golders Hill Park is a true underrated gem. I wish I could shoot here more often. What other park boasts wonderful ancient woodland, a pond bursting with wildlife, an adventure playground, wildflower meadows, grassy areas with plenty of space for chasing games and an open air zoo! It’s perfect for family photos too, just ask any toddler. Add the sweetest newborn to that mix and you have…

‘‘The house is a mess, could we shoot only in the living room?’’ Well, don't even think about the mess, don't hide things, don't stress and don't try to impress your photographer. I promise you that no one cares, especially your photographer. Tons of toys and hanging laundry, it's all part of life with young kids. Plus I think it's wonderful to include their creative "mess” and imaginative play areas. It tells the real story and that's always worth capturing.

The reason I love and I capture family photos is because I needed to (re)write for myself a new definition of WHAT IS FAMILY. So the photos I capture are not about how childhood is carefree and wild or about how hard and fulfilling parenthood can be. No, what deeply motivates me is to show that despite everything that goes on in our daily lives, LOVE is at the base of it.

Natural Family Photography. How does it work?

It's all about organic interactions, I will focus on capturing mainly loving moments of connection between you and your children. The best thing about natural family photography is that there’s no need in purchasing fancy outfits, getting your hair styled at a salon or stressing everyone to be on their best behaviour. No, all you have to do is spend time with your loved ones and I will capture it all.
