Family, newborn and maternity photographer in London and Surrey
Heartfelt images that capture your story…
WHEN YOU BOOK A SESSION
…you’re investing in memories that hold meaning beyond this moment.
Our time together is more than a photoshoot. With my experience as both a London family photographer and a mother, I create a calm, supportive space where you can soften, slow down and be fully present with your baby, your partner, or your growing family.
However your session unfolds — the quiet, the chaos, the in-between — I’m there to hold it with care. You’ll receive a gallery of warm, soulful and artistic images that feel honest to your motherhood journey and true to who you are.
Newborn
My newborn sessions are calm and baby-led, with plenty of time for feeds, changes, and cuddles so you can simply enjoy these early moments while I take care of the rest.
At home or in the Richmond newborn photography studio, I focus on natural, soulful images centred on connection, not posed perfection.

“Alina is amazing and I highly recommend her. Before the photoshoot, she took a lot of trouble to get to know us as a family, and gave us great tips on how to prepare for the shoot.
On the day she was a warm and calming presence which helped everyone relax and allowed us to get lovely candid photos, as well as some posed ones. Everyone thought she was great.
Beyond getting the photos (which are beautiful), it was also genuinely a really fun experience that I think our family will always remember. I'm so glad that we created and captured these special moments, and so thankful to Alina for both the experience and the photos.”

Your story, captured as timeless art.
Throughout your session, I’ll give you some gentle posing guidance, and suggest where to sit or stand for best light. But my focus in on those those in-between moments of connection that capture true emotions and tell your story.
The experience
From the very first email to the final gallery, my goal is to make this effortless. No stiff poses, no stress - just gentle guidance, a seamless experience, and space for you to simply be with the people you love.
How does it work?
Fill out the contact form. This helps me gather all the important details to get started! I will get back to you within 48 hours (if you don’t hear from me, please check your junk folder as sometimes emails get lost there!).
Book your session. We’ll find the date for your session and I will send you an online booking link. A non-refundable deposit of £250 is required to secure your date which will be deducted from your session fee.
Virtual consultation. Once you’re booked in, we’ll schedule a virtual consultation (usually over the phone) to get to know each other and prepare for your session.
Stay connected. In the run-up to your shoot, I’m here for you on WhatsApp. You can message me anytime with questions, outfit ideas, or anything that comes to mind. I believe that building a connection beforehand helps you feel more at ease on the day — and leads to more natural, emotive photographs.
The remainder of your session fee is due one week before your shoot.

What my clients are saying:
“Alina made us feel relaxed right away. She really cares about her clients and her passion shows through her beautiful work. Thanks to her we have precious family photos that we will cherish for the rest of our life.”
- NATALIE, NEWBORN SESSION
“We couldn't be happier with the experience. Everything was easy from start to finish. Alina is very warm and professional, letting things flow naturally while suggesting good ideas at the same time. She was very kind and patient with my toddler and we ended up with a lovely gallery of family photos that we will treasure forever.”
