Coventry portrait specialist creating relaxed, natural portraits for families, maternity, newborns and schools. Kasenya and her team focus on authentic moments and a friendly studio experience.
Your Story Photography is a portrait specialist based in Coventry, led by Kasenya and a small team who have been photographing families across the West Midlands since 1994. We believe every portrait should tell something true about the people in front of the camera — their character, connection and the small gestures that make a family unique. That belief shapes everything we do, whether in our studio or out on location. Why choose us? Our long-standing local reputation comes from a gentle, patient approach that puts even camera-shy children and nervous parents at ease. We combine studio-control with lifestyle warmth: careful lighting and contemporary backdrops when you want a polished portrait, and relaxed, documentary-style direction when you prefer natural moments. Our priority is authenticity — we aim for images that feel like you, not a posed version of you. What makes our approach special is how we blend storytelling with technical craft. Kasenya’s decades of experience mean she knows how to find flattering angles, coax genuine smiles, and create an atmosphere where siblings, toddlers and new parents relax into the session. For nursery and school shoots we work interactively with children, using seasonal props and playful prompts to capture personality rather than a forced mugshot. We’ve worked with over 100 nurseries across the region and bring that same calm, engaging energy to every portrait session. How we work with clients is straightforward and personal. From your first enquiry we listen to the moments you want to remember — bump, newborn, family milestones or school-aged portraits — and suggest the best setting: studio, home or a favourite local place in Coventry. During the shoot we focus on comfortable, natural posing and a friendly, relaxed atmosphere that helps genuine interactions shine through. Our editing approach is to enhance each image with a light touch, preserving the warmth and honesty of the moment. While portraiture is our core speciality, we also offer business headshots and professional portraits for web use as a secondary service. If you’re looking for a portrait studio in Coventry that prioritises real stories, lasting memories and a calm, professional experience, get in touch — we’d love to help you tell your story.
