Kay Dawn Photography Newborn, Baby & Family Lifestyle Photographer It’s a kind of fizz and crackle that reminds me I’m in exactly the right career.

Mum of three and lifelong Hereford girl, I’m a passionate photographer with a signature style that’s both natural and yet at the same time pretty polished. There’s something about the reaction I get from parents when they see their photos for the first time that fills me with the kind of joy usually reserved for double-yolk eggs and four-leafed clovers. Bring me your newborns, your babies, your to

ddlers, your teens, your reluctant husbands and everyone in between. I promise relaxed, honest lifestyle photography that’ll look incredible in your home and a fun day out that everyone will love. Like most mums, I know exactly how tiring, wonderful, joyful and turbulent having a family can be. One minute everyone’s fine, the next someone’s jammed a wooden spoon down the sink, someone else has no pants on and a small fire has been started in the living room.

I can’t emphasise enough that family sessions are just about being together. No performing, no forced smiles, just wholesome, real moments with your favourite people.

With life still a little hectic I am going into this year offering a limited amount of outdoor family sessions. If 2026 is the year you want real family photos please reach out to me sooner rather than later for a chat.

One of the beautiful shifts I’ve seen since Covid? Extended family photo sessions have become more popular than ever and they’re here to stay. After all time apart, families are still prioritising togetherness, cherishing every generation, and capturing those rare moments when everyone is in one place.

More and more families are booking these sessions while holidaying here in beautiful Herefordshire, making memories in the countryside and leaving with moments they can treasure forever. These sessions are full of laughter, legacy, and love and they’ve quickly become some of my favorites to photograph.

Planning a family getaway? Let’s make it extra special.

It started with “let’s just get a nice family photo”…
and turned into piggy back races, flower collecting, and a lot of “wait, who’s the strongest?!” moments.
Honestly, these are the kinds of sessions I live for — real laughs, real memories, zero awkward posing.

Also: honorary shoutout to Maisie for being the true MVP of the day!

Let’s be honest—most dads don’t love family photoshoots. Posing for pictures can feel stiff, awkward, and, let’s face it, not exactly their idea of fun. But here’s a trick: make dad the fun bringer!

When dads are encouraged to play, joke around, and interact naturally with the kids, something amazing happens. They stop overthinking, relax, and actually enjoy the shoot. The result? Genuine smiles, real laughter, and photos that feel alive with love and connection.

So let dad be the tickle monster, the airplane ride giver, or the joke teller. Not only will he feel more comfortable, but the whole family will, too—and your photos will capture those priceless, unfiltered moments.

Dads, are you ready to bring the fun? 😆📷

This week’s job has been setting up my new laptop and clearing out my mountain of images in cloud storage. Which basically means I’ve gone down a rabbit hole of old sessions and realised I never shared any from this family shoot last summer. Gotta love a hat!
