Family Photography

Experience luxury at my family photography studio in West Malling, Kent.

Family Photography

What is Family Photography?

Family photography is the best way to capture your family's memories to look back on for years to come. Either you and your partner, or with your children, capture your memories as your family grows.

I allow 2-4 hours for every photoshoot to give you and your family the time you need to capture your most precious of moments.

When to Book a Family Photoshoot

You should book a family photoshoot around special times and memories, whether that is an anniversary, birthday, or special moment in your family's life. This is a perfect photoshoot for babies older than 1 year old, multiple children, or siblings and families.

I capture family photography in a relaxed, lifestyle shooting style that aims to capture all of the love within your family. The Before Time Flies experience helps you feel luxurious and have that shine through in your images, that you will look back on for decades to come.

Family Photography Studio

My bespoke family photography studio is located in West Malling, Kent.

The studio is stocked with beautiful neutral accessories, such as benches, cushions, curtains, and backdrops that I have curated to help express the love in your family across a range of different photoshoots.

 You don't have to bring anything with you on the day, I'll take care of everything, including giving you some well-deserved time to relax during the photoshoot.

A gentle beginning, with guidance from the first message.


Share who is coming, and what you are celebrating

I will recommend the best timing and next steps

Use my contact form to share a little about your family and what this session is marking, a birthday, an anniversary, a new chapter, or simply the way life looks right now.

You do not need to know exactly what you want yet. I will guide you.

Once confirmed, I will send you a booking confirmation with details on how to get to the studio, including a video walkthrough from your car to the front door, and through the studio!

The studio is stocked with beautiful neutral pieces, benches, cushions, curtains and backdrops, so you do not need to bring anything on the day.

We'll meet at the studio for your agreed session time. I allow 2 to 4 hours for your session, so you can settle in, children can warm up, and we can capture natural moments without pressure.

I will gently guide you, but never over pose you. The aim is relaxed, honest images that feel like your family, at your best.

You get to enjoy the experience, I will take care of the rest.

Kind Words

See the kind words that my clients are saying about their visit to Before Time Flies

"My daughter had her first photos taken in Molly’s wonderful studio when she was 6 weeks old. Molly was patient, professional, welcoming, and just so talented at what she does. My baby was so calm with Molly, and I couldn’t wait to get the photos back. We are so pleased with them, the whole family love them too. We will definitely go back for more photos in the future, thank you!"
