London Family Photographer –
Timeless Portrait Photography
Hi, my name is Chris Boland – thank you very much for finding my portrait photography. I am a London family photographer who loves to take meaningful portraits that are full of life and character. My work is characterised by finding real moments and expressions even within the setting of a photoshoot. I mix natural light and beautiful compositions to create photographs you will want to frame and see every day.
Family Photoshoot in London
My family portrait sessions are perfect for families of every size.
Outdoor Family Photography in London
I always like to have my photo sessions outside because I adore natural light and the sense of freedom that the outdoors can provide. I find that being outdoors helps both children and adults to relax and to be themselves. This helps me to produce photographs that are filled with life and personality.
There are many areas in London that are perfect for family photos. If you have a favourite park or open space let me know – I have a few great ideas too.
Relaxed, Natural Photoshoots
My role as a photographer is to put you at ease so you can have a fun photo session. I especially love photographing children.
Family Photography at Your Home
If you would like have your family photos taken at your own home I am happy to travel to you.
Photo Session Prices
My current price for a 90 minute session is £450 and comes with the high resolution digital files of at least 50 pictures – often more, there’s no limit. These are personally edited for both gorgeous colour and classic black and white versions.
Family Photo Gift Certificates
If you are looking to give the gift of family photos to someone I can provide a gift certificate for one of my family photography sessions. Simply get in touch and we can discuss the best way of sending this to you.
Family Photography Testimonials
“We asked Chris if he could do a family portrait to mark my parents’ anniversary. Chris’ friendly manner put us all at ease. He was even able to tame my 5 year old niece long enough to capture some really natural and memorable photos.”

I am extremely happy with the results. Chris is a warm and friendly person as well as being a top class photographer.

Watch How I Photograph People
My style of family portraiture is natural and relaxed, but with a very classic and timeless feel. I don’t see the point of pictures of you all standing like statues. I want my photos of you to have life and character. I want you to truly recognise yourselves and have each other’s personalities brought to life.
There are lots of considerations to make a great portrait and I have made a video outlining some tips for better pictures. The video was originally aimed at photographers wanting to improve their work, but I’ve included it here as I think it can help you understand what I aim for in my family photography. There’s a lot going through my mind when I press that button.
