LONDON AND SURREY FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER

AWARD-WINNING  PHOTOGRAPHY FOR FAMILIES WHO WANT NATURAL AND MEANINGFUL FAMILY PHOTOS WITH ZERO CHEESE

Welcome! You are probably looking for a family or a newborn baby photographer in London or Surrey and found my portfolio. Authentic family photography that is beautiful, natural and emotive and really captures who you are as a family and individuals is my passion, and since 2009 I’ve photographed hundreds of families who are looking for a photographer to capture fun unposed portraits and genuine family connection and love. I specialise in bespoke, natural and meaningful family photography, pregnancy and newborn baby photography and offer a personalised service to families across London, Surrey and internationally. I’m based on the border between London and Surrey in East Molesey, near Esher, Kingston-upon-Thames, Hampton, Teddington and Hampton Court. I also travel all over South West, Central and North London, including Kensington, Fulham, Chiswick, Hampstead, St Johns Wood, Richmond-upon-Thames and the nearby areas, photographing families in my signature style that combines lifestyle aesthetic with a storytelling, photojournalistic approach, documenting real family life beautifully so it can be preserved and passed onto your children.

STRESS-FREE EXPERIENCE

My photography approach lets you enjoy quality family time without stressing about coordinating your outfits or posing awkwardly in the park. I encourage you to embrace your unique selves and capture your family in an authentic way, creating timeless images.

CANDID MOMENTS

To capture those unposed, candid moments of family interactions I will drift between actively entertaining the kids, making a complete fool of myself to get the genuine laughs, and blending into the background to capture more quiet, intimate moments.

FAMILY HEIRLOOMS

From leather-bound fine art albums to expertly framed wall art, I will help you choose the best way to present and preserve your family photographs, so it can be enjoyed for years and years to come.

WE HAD SO MUCH FUN

Antonina was absolutely amazing. The kids immediately felt at ease with her and at the end said: “That was the best photo shoot ever, we had so much fun!”. She really did capture what our family is all about and we will cherish those memories forever.

ONE OF THE BEST IN THE UK

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.

PHOTOS THAT TELL A STORY

Antonina is a really gifted photographer. She takes photos that are not only beautiful and make you proud to be in the picture, but also photos that show emotions and tell a story. She has taken photos of my family 3 times now and each time we were delighted with the results.
