You want meaningful family photographs that you and your children will cherish… but would rather stick needles in your eyes than wear matching outfits and pose in a random field at sunset? Me too.

Hi, I’m Antonina. A London & Surrey family photographer who does things differently.

My photoshoots are not about looking like the perfect family — there’s no such thing! They are about being unapologetically yourselves, capturing the unique personalities of your children and celebrating this season of your life in all its real-life glory. My clients tell me that one of their most favourite things when looking back at the images is seeing just how much their children love them. To be reminded of that in a single frame is priceless.

Create a visual diary for your children

We will isolate one morning or afternoon in time and capture it just the way it is, so years and years down the road you and your kids can look at these pictures and remember not just what you looked like, what what life felt like.

“Antonina managed to capture our very ordinary Saturday afternoon in such a beautiful way. Looking at the pictures really warms my heart.” — Caroline

Tailored to you

Ahead of your session I will talk to you to discover more about you and your family, and will design your experience around it. Years to come, what would you want to remember? Let’s document that.

“Antonina is one of the best family photographers you’ll find in the UK. She was such a pleasure to have in our home and we were all totally relaxed with her. I will cherish the pictures, but more importantly my son will see what a fun childhood he had and how much he was loved.” — Nicky

Beauty in the mundane

A documentary family photoshoot is unlike any other photography session you might have experienced before. No need to get ready, to rush, or wear special clothes, or do something you’d never normally do.

Trust me to find the beauty in your mundane and ten, twenty years from now you will thank yourself for deciding to embrace imperfection.

“Our experience with Antonina was outstanding and well worth the investment. Our young daughter can be shy, but she quickly became comfortable with Antonina. She was such a wonderful “stranger” to spendthe day with!” – Jessica

Straightforward pricing

An all-inclusive session fee of £1650 covers my time, travel within London, Surrey, and surrounding counties, and a full collection of high-resolution digital images that you can print to your heart’s content and share with friends and family.

An option to purchase heirloom custom designed fine art albums or framed prints is available following your session.
