Discover your sessionWelcome to Freya Photography
Your family.
Your connection.
Your story.
I photograph the small details and the deep connections that make your family yours. From the quiet anticipation of pregnancy to newborn cuddles and the wonderful personality of a growing child, my approach is natural, gentle and personal.
As a mother of three, I understand how quickly these chapters pass. My custom-built studio in Thanet offers a welcoming space to pause, feel comfortable and create photographs you will return to for years.
The moments that matter
A little of my work.
The chapters of your family’s life
Beautifully remembered.
There is nothing quite like those first days: the tiny fingers curled around yours, soft sleepy stretches and the way your baby settles in your arms. A newborn session preserves these fleeting details with simple, natural portraits and a gentle, timeless style.
Your baby sets the pace. I allow around 2–3 hours, with time for feeding, changing, cuddling and settling, so you can relax without feeling rushed. Tell me your due date when you enquire and we can talk through the best way to plan your visit.
Baby-led sessions · Around 2–3 hours · Time to settle
Those first smiles become giggles, curious looks become adventures, and every month brings something new. Baby portraits celebrate the little person your child is becoming, from their chubby cheeks and tiny toes to their own unmistakable expressions.
Available from 3 months onwards, each session is shaped around your baby’s stage of development. Whether they are enjoying tummy time or beginning to sit, a simple setting keeps the attention on them, with room for cuddles and breaks along the way.
From 3 months onwards · Natural expressions · Gentle pacing
Pregnancy holds a story all of its own. A maternity session is a chance to slow down and celebrate your growing bump, your strength and the anticipation of meeting someone you already love.
You do not need to know how to pose. I offer gentle guidance to help you feel at ease, and we can discuss clothing and the style of photographs you love before your session. If you would like your partner or children involved, let me know so we can plan meaningful portraits together.
Thoughtful guidance · Natural portraits · Your family’s new beginning
A familiar cuddle, a shared laugh, the way your child reaches for your hand. Family photographs mean the most when they feel like you. My sessions capture the warmth and connection between you, alongside beautiful portraits of the people who make your world.
As a mother of three, I know that children bring their own energy to a session. Rather than expecting them to stay perfectly still, I make room for their personalities, with relaxed guidance and time to feel comfortable together.
Relaxed guidance · Genuine connection · All your little personalities
A first birthday deserves to be remembered with a little fun. From the first curious touch to frosting-covered fingers, a cake smash captures your baby’s personality as they discover, taste and explore at their own pace.
Typically planned just before their first birthday, the session includes a professionally made cake. We will discuss your preferred look and any dietary requirements before booking. Whether your little one dives straight in or takes their time, the photographs celebrate this milestone in their own way.

A little
reassurance.
What if my baby needs a break?
Your baby’s comfort comes first. Newborn sessions allow time for feeds, changes and settling, and baby sessions can pause for cuddles when needed.
Do I need to know how to pose?
No. I will offer gentle guidance throughout your session, so you can focus on being with your family rather than worrying about what to do.
What should we wear?
Simple, comfortable clothing in soft neutral tones works beautifully with the style of my photography. We can discuss outfits before your visit so you feel prepared.
How do I find prices and availability?
Get in touch with the session you have in mind and any preferred dates. I can share current package information and help you plan your booking.
