Hi I’m Mark, a full-time professional wedding photographer in Cornwall and specialise in family photography with a relaxed and candid style. I’m dad to two boys who are now teenagers and from capturing images of them growing up over the years inspired my love for family photography, capturing personalities with timeless images to treasure. I’d love to capture yours.

useful information

The location in Cornwall of your family photography session is up to you or I can provide ideas. It can take place somewhere you love, the beach, your own home or perhaps a holiday home your staying at in Cornwall. As you can imagine, most family photography sessions I capture in Cornwall are on a beach - perfect for families, dogs etc.
If you’re stuck for ideas or not familiar with Cornwall, i’m happy to recommend locations for family photography. As a Cornwall photographer I've been all over the South West so I know the best locations for relaxed, fun and natural family photography.
Not only do I know the best locations in Cornwall but I know the best times of day for family photography. Whether it's golden hour shortly before sunset to soft morning light, we can work out the best time for your family photography.
My family photography style is very relaxed and candid/natural. Scenery plays an important part in my photography whether it’s coastal or countryside, Cornwall is blessed with stunning beaches, coastlines and woods.
Be yourselves and have fun as a family - that’s when the real magic happens and where the best images are captured.
I may see opportunities especially with natural light or scenery where I’ll recommend we make the most of, but apart from that, go have fun together and leave the rest to me.
I always include some relaxed group photos of you all together because these are the photos we always struggle to get ourselves if you’re anything like my family - one of you is always missing behind the camera, and selfies on a mobile phone just don’t cut it!
Do not worry if you're camera shy, most of us feel this way when a camera is pointed at us. As someone who is camera shy too, my family photography is very relaxed and candid and is all about capturing natural moments together, personalities…ignore me and the camera.
Run around on a beach, play games, have fun together without any awkward looking into the camera photos (you may want some group photos which i’m happy to capture).
The real magic happens when you're interacting naturally, the laughs, hugs, little moments of connection, I love to capture this and the different personalities, images that evoke emotions when you look back at them.
So please don't worry about being picture perfect or feeling awkward, have fun and embrace time with your family and trust me to capture all those beautiful moments.
With my family photography, it’s up to 20 people and dogs are more than welcome…they're part of your family too ; )
With two boys myself, I know how quickly children grow up and change, we really treasure our family photos taken by a photographer friend in Cornwall when our boys were little. It’s one the main reasons why I started family photography alongside weddings as I know these special images will be treasured by you, your future self will thank you : )
The majority of family photography sessions in Cornwall take around 1 hour unless there are multiple locations involved but I'm happy to tailor photography for you.
1 hour family photography is £250
Extended hours available on request.
Gift vouchers available to buy, see below.
Cornwall family photography gift vouchers are available to buy. If you’d like to purchase a gift voucher, please enquire using the form below.
Depending on the ages of any children involved, something to keep them entertained, for example, if it’s on a beach then ideas include bucket & spade, football, aerobie, if windy a kite. But don’t worry if not, just yourselves is all I really need ; )
