A message for the Dads who are dreading the photoshoot because they don't know how to stand or what to do with their hands..

Please don't worry!

You don't need to pose like a model, smile at the camera or say cheese a hundred times.

All you need to do is be present with your family and I'll take care of the rest.

🎄 Christmas photos at home – with special weekday prices! 🎄

Want some lovely Christmas photos without the pressure of a traditional photoshoot? I'll come to you and capture your family enjoying Christmas at home, from decorating the tree and baking to cosy cuddles and little family traditions.

✨ Special weekday prices – available for these sessions only!

📸 Essentials package – £80 (usually £99 on weekdays)
A shorter session with 5 carefully edited digital images of your choice. Perfect for a handful of family memories or Christmas gifts.

📸 Complete package – £109 (usually £139 on weekdays)
A longer session with your full edited digital gallery, giving you more time to enjoy different activities and capture all those little moments as they happen.

🎄 Weekend sessions are also available at my usual prices – you can find these here: https://www.takenbyjess.co.uk/pricing-plans/list

No need to have your decorations up already, either! We can create a festive feel with a few twinkly lights, some baking, blankets or simple Christmas crafts. There's no pressure to have a perfect home or make everything look just right.

Sessions are available from now until Christmas, but please allow up to 2 weeks for your finished photos, especially if you're hoping to order prints or make personalised gifts in time.

Dates are limited, particularly at weekends, so if you'd love some relaxed Christmas photos at home this year, drop me a message and I'll send you the available dates.

There's nothing quite like putting their little hand in yours to make you realise how tiny they are 🤍

Christmas looks a little different for every family and that’s what makes it worth remembering.

From decorating the tree to baking festive treats or snuggling up on the sofa, my at-home Christmas sessions capture your family enjoying the little things that are big to you.

No travelling, no pressure, just relaxed photos of your family at Christmas.

Discounted weekday sessions, plus weekend packages available across Kent. Message me to find out more.

Because they’re part of the family too..

At-home sessions are a great chance to include your four-legged family members as well as the human ones.

Whether it's with everyone together or solo photos letting them be the star of the show, don't miss out on capturing these special moments with the whole family.

Birthday photos aren’t just for the first birthday!

It’s lovely to have photos of your newborn and celebrate their first birthday, but what about all the other birthdays after that?

Children change so much every year and a birthday photoshoot is a lovely way to capture their personalities as they grow - whether they're 1, 2 or 12!

If you’d love to make birthday photos a yearly tradition, drop me a message to chat about packages and availability.

I love it when families bring their true selves to the session with them. By that, I mean all the little things that make their family unique and special.

Whether it's nose kisses, singing a rhyme about flowers, or riding up on shoulders - these are the things you will look back on and remember doing when they were little.

Although I can give you some pointers and ideas as we go, you'll be glad if you add some of you into the photos too.

There's nothing quite like running round the woods to keep those natural smiles coming.

If you want to see all my favourite local spots that families love, just ask for my Autumn/Winter location guide and I'll send it over.

At-home sessions aren't just for newborns.

Baby Ivy was 6 months old for these photos and home was the perfect place to capture this stage. The giggles, the cuddles and her beautiful nursery to remember forever.

Your home is part of your family's story, whatever age your little one is. There's no pressure to go anywhere, siblings can relax in familiar surroundings, and we can create beautiful, natural images that feel completely like you.

Thinking you've missed the newborn stage? You definitely haven't. Every chapter is worth remembering ✨
