Burlison Photography is a specialist family photography studio based in Andover, proudly led by Master Photographer Dave Burlison. With over 30 years of professional experience and an award‑winning approach, Dave focusses on documenting real family moments—creating relaxed, natural portraits that reflect personality, connection and the small gestures that matter. Why choose Burlison Photography for your family photoshoot? We combine documentary sensibility with fine‑art craftsmanship. Whether you want an informal outdoor session, an environmental portrait in your home, a newborn shoot or a classic family portrait, our aim is the same: capture honest emotion with calm, confident direction so everyone—including the littlest members—feels comfortable and looks their best. Our approach is friendly and unhurried. We start with a short consultation to understand what you want from the session and plan locations, timings and any special images you’d like. On the day we create a relaxed atmosphere—gentle prompts rather than stiff posing—to let natural interaction shine through. For parents who prefer a more refined look, we also offer low‑key, fine‑art portrait options that emphasise mood and timelessness. Quality matters at every stage. As a Master Photographer recognised by the Master Photographers Association, Dave brings technical precision and an artistic eye to composition, lighting and post‑production. The team are qualified, insured and enhanced DBS checked, and our equipment is safety tested to give you peace of mind while we photograph your family. The finished images are presented with care. Many families choose archival‑quality fine‑art prints or framed portraits to display at home. For those wanting a legacy piece, we can guide you to beautiful, bespoke album and print options that turn your session into a lasting family heirloom. Based in Andover and covering Hampshire and the surrounding regions, Burlison Photography specialises in family, newborn and children photography with an emphasis on authenticity and craftsmanship.
