North London Photography

I’m Lynn Hammarstrom-Craggs and I specialise in portrait photography from my North London studio — serving Golders Green and the surrounding areas. Portraiture is my passion: I love telling people’s stories through calm, considered images that reflect character, connection and real moments. Whether you want a timeless family portrait, a maternity shoot that celebrates this unique time, or a personal studio portrait, my focus is on making the experience relaxed and enjoyable so your true self can shine. My approach is gentle and conversational. I work to put people at ease — especially children and expectant parents — creating a friendly atmosphere in the studio and garden where natural expressions emerge. I blend classic composition with a contemporary eye so each portrait feels both personal and beautifully made. Lighting, simple direction and a keen attention to detail help me capture authentic expressions rather than forced poses. The studio is set up for calm, professional sessions and the garden provides a lovely outdoor alternative when you want a more natural backdrop. I aim for images that will be cherished, whether printed for your home or delivered as high-resolution files. Careful retouching is included so your portraits look polished while still feeling authentic. As a specialist in portrait work, I bring years of experience photographing families, children and maternity clients. I believe the best portraits come from a collaborative session — I listen to what matters to you, suggest ideas that suit your style, and guide the shoot to create a relaxed flow that captures real interactions. While my main focus is portrait, family and maternity photography, I also offer business portrait and headshot options as a complementary service when clients need a simple, professional image for online profiles. If you’re looking for a portrait photographer in Golders Green who values warmth, patience and craftsmanship, I’d love to hear from you. Get in touch to discuss your ideas and we’ll plan a session that feels right for you and your family.
