"Great photographer and a lovely calm and welcoming studio!  Jon is fantastic with our little one and takes the time to let her settle in, and let her have fun during the session,

Covid Update: At JLC Photography your safety is our priority Hoping you and your family are keeping safe and well during this unprecedented time. We have complied with regulations to offer you a safe and secure environment for your family portrait: In line with current regulations we have completed the Health and Safety Executive risk assessment. We continue to welcome both household bubbles and support bubbles for family portrait sessions. Sessions are booked with sufficient time between to ensure no two households meet and a full clean can be undertaken. There is ample room in our studio area to enable social distancing of 2m. Hand sanitisers are available for you anytime during your session, situated on entry and exit from our studio area. I have a mask on hand to use as necessary in studio. As studio sessions are offered within our home we undertake a full clean of the area and all equipement used after every session. We request that you let us know if any of your family feel unwell on the run up to or on the day ~ we can easily rearrange your session to a time when everyone is feeling better If you choose to purchase one of our digital collections then your viewing can be arranged on-line so that you can choose your favourite images in the comfort of your own home.  Printed products are slightly different as it is easier to discuss, design and order in person. If we go into lockdown again and Government restrictions mean sessions can not take place we will simply rearrange your session to a new mutually convenient date.  In this event Gift Vouchers will simply be extended to ensure no one misses out. Restrictions apply but rule of 6 does not apply to single households or support bubbles and we work to households and support bubbles whilst restrictions are in place ~ so even if there are more than 6 of you in your bubble/family we will continue to welcome households and support bubbles for our family portrait sessions.

Which sessions do you offer

Family Studio Portrait ~ A great family moment captured for you to treasure always.  I will photograph your family together in any number of combinations to ensure you receive the photos you would like including everyone, families, couples, children together and individually.  I regularly have grandparents, extended family and pets join in.

Family Location Portrait ~ Love the great outdoors, family fun and beautiful captured moments - these sessions are perfect for you.  As above I will photograph your family together in any number of combinations to ensure you receive the photos you would like including everyone, families, couples, children together and individually.   I love photographing large families and regularly have grandparents, extended family and pets join in.  For more information about my location portraits please click here.    

Couples / Partners / Mothers and Daughters / BFF's Portrait ~ Ideal for those newly engaged, celebrating an anniversary, a special birthday or looking for a beautiful image with a very special person in your life.  A great excuse to get all dressed up or stay casual and relaxed.

Children's Portrait ~ Capture a moment and treasure it forever.  They grow so quickly and change so much every day - these sessions are for kids of all ages - I offer lots of different styles and ideas to get them involved and having fun.  I have a range of coloured backgrounds to choose from and they can bring their own props and change of clothes as with this session they will have plenty of time to have some fun and for me to capture some great images.  If you have more than one child and would like images of them individually and together that is completely fine I have loads of experience of producing lovely images like this.  For more information about my Children's Portraits please click here

Baby Portrait ~ My baby sessions focus on your baby - I will capture baby's giggles, expressions, hands and feet - creating beautiful images for you to treasure.  Depending on their age and stage of development I will capture them laying down, crawling or their first steps.  

"Capture the Moment" ~ A baby portrait session delivering beautiful images of your baby at this great time in your lives and creating photographs that you will treasure for the rest of your life.  Choose any time in their first year from just after your baby is born to their 1st birthday.  A great opportunity to capture your little one before they grow up so fast.  Bring in siblings and grandparents for family cuddles if you like and turn your baby session into a family portrait above if you prefer.

"Watch Them Grow" ~ book 3 sessions with the first around 4 months when your baby is smiling and interactive, then a second at 8 months when they are mobile, crawling, bum shuffling or coasting and then the final session at their 1st year birthday for a cake smash, balloons, cards and favourite presents.  A special portrait session which produces an amazing record of your new baby's first year.  Bring in siblings and grandparents for family cuddles if you would like for any of your 3 sessions.  Included is an 8"x6" print in a luxury card folder ~ your favourite image from each session.


What Happens on the Day

Family photographs can be taken at any age, at any time in your life and create a lasting happy memory.  When hung on your wall a photograph becomes the perfect reminder of a special family moment which will remain in pride of place on display for you  to love and everyone to admire for years to come.  

All of my sessions are relaxed and fun with plenty of time for you and your children to relax and settle in to having your photograph taken. 

Bring any props you would like included in your photographs or a change of clothes ~ with a selection of backgrounds we can easily create different looks together

If you are concerned about how you look or should be in front of a camera I am here to help - with a studio session (unlike a location session) you have privacy to have fun together without any risk of drawing a crowd

Sessions usually last around an hour

Groups in any studio session are limited to maximum of 8 family members per photo
Larger groups can be accommodated on a location session.

Keeping you and your family safe ~ as I now offer your studio portrait sessions from the comfort of my home studio everything is cleaned after every session ~ all surfaces are wiped with antibacterial wipes, soap and antibacterial spray is readily available for use.  Sessions are booked well apart to avoid you meeting with other households.


After Your Session 

After your session I will carefully process your images ready for your viewing session.  We will then arrange a mutually convenient time for you to return to view your images, choose your favourites and decide how you would like to display them.  You will be able to see and feel the quality of my range of wall art products, prints, albums and photobooks.  If you would like digital copies of your images you can order these too.
