We’ve rounded up some amazing photographers, all based locally in York, so you can arrange the perfect photoshoot – many of them taking the professional photos and also an option to learn the photography tips yourself!
Now is the ideal time for a photo shoot, especially if you fancy something outdoors so you can take full advantage of all the beautiful spring and summer colours.
💜🎉💜We have some EXCLUSIVE MUMBLER OFFERS for you too so look below for details of those.
Whilst we all take hundreds (ok maybe thousands?) of photos of our children, families and pets on our phones, the results are not even close to that of a professional photographer who has the right skills, a creative eye and the best equipment to take amazing photos of you and your family that you will treasure for years to come.
Here are just a few great reasons to have a family photo shoot:
📸 Whilst iPhones and cameras can do a lot – there is no substitute for the knowledge that a professional has. It’s more than the equipment – they know how to use the correct light, compose, tricks to get the right expression and lots more!
📸 You can frame the photos and hang them in your home so you can enjoy them every single day
📸 The photos make the perfect gift for family or close friends
📸 You might have loads of photos on your phone, but how many have ALL of you in? Someone is normally hiding behind the camera
📸 You could use the photo shoot to celebrate a special milestone – a new addition to the family, a child starting high school or even a new family pet!
📸 The photos will be a lifetime investment and be valuable to you forever
A lot changes as your family grows, from that beautiful first night at home with your baby, to those first steps, to borrowing your car keys. Some things don’t:
There’s first smiles, first steps, first pet, first love; the toy they won’t put down, the hat they wear to bed – and the one they wear to graduate.
So whether they’ve just given you a good kick to remind you they’re on the way, or they’ve just called to say you’re a grandparent, get in touch and together we’ll take a moment and make it forever.

Do your children hate posing for family photos? Movie Moments, by Jackson Media of York, is a unique role-play photography experience for kids, that captures children at their very best – in playful mode!
A Movie Moments shoot is all about play and creativity. Your child gets to dress up as their favourite character or superhero and be captured in camera playing the role of their dreams. No more dull or orchestrated posing for family photos – this shoot is on their terms!
It doesn’t matter who you choose to come as – we’ve had astronauts, dinosaurs, Disney princesses, cowboys, mermaids – and, of course, plenty of Harry Potter and Star Wars characters! After your shoot, I use some photoshop magic to create a realistic movie backdrop for the image, and blend your child’s photo into the scene. It’s your very own Movie-Moment and the end result from the shoot is beautiful wall-art for your home that has the look and feel of a real-life movie poster.

Spring is here and we’re all feeling a little lighter. It’s a great time to do the things you’ve been thinking about for a while. Making sure you’re all in the frame deserves a space on your list.
For Sarah, family photography is about catching connection on camera. Whether you’re welcoming a new addition, packing bags for uni and beyond, or you’re simply moving through all of the days in between, this is your family story. People often ask when the best time to get family photos is, and her response is always ‘now.’ Because if not now, then when?
Sarah gets working with kids – she has two boys and was a teacher for 16 years. She’s also hugely passionate about making sure mums are in photography with their children. You can read more about her here https://www.sjburton.com/about-me or follow her work on Instagram – @sjburtonphotography
