Woodland Hill Photography

I specialise in portrait photography from my studio in East Grinstead — creating honest, joyful, and undeniably you images that become part of your home. With a background of awards and professional qualifications (ABIPP, MPA, Guild of Photographers Craftsman), I focus my work on carefully crafted portrait experiences: family sessions, maternity and newborn shoots, first‑birthday celebrations, and pet pawtraits. These are the sessions I return to again and again because they matter. Why choose Woodland Hill for your portraits? Because I treat every session as more than a shoot. I’m not a conveyor‑belt photographer — I take time to get to know you, your story and the little things that make your relationships unique. That relaxed, chatty approach helps even the most camera‑shy people unwind, and it’s how I capture those in‑between glances and natural moments that age beautifully. How I work with you: the process is simple but thoughtful. First we have a friendly chat so I understand what you want to celebrate. Before your session I’ll share planning tips so you arrive relaxed and prepared. On the day we take our time — whether in the studio or out on location — to let real moments unfold. After the shoot you’re invited back for a big‑screen design consultation where we view your images together. That’s when we plan how your portraits will live in your home, choosing heirloom prints, wall art and bespoke pieces that keep your memories on display. My studio sits in East Grinstead and I work with families across Sussex, Surrey, Kent and the wider UK. I love photographing dogs and other animals as part of family stories — the best portraits come when everyone (two‑ and four‑legged) is relaxed and having fun. If you need a professional headshot, I offer studio headshot sessions too for creatives and professionals, but my core expertise and heart lie in portrait-led family work. Photography is a way to pause and hold the life you’re living now. I’m here to guide you gently, keep things light, and produce timeless images and beautiful printed work you’ll treasure. If that sounds like the kind of portrait experience you want, let’s have a natter and begin planning something brilliant together.
