EvaGud Photography creates relaxed, natural family portraits in Barking and across East London. Eva’s warm, mother-to-mother approach puts children at ease and produces timeless images to treasure.
EvaGud Photography is a specialist family photographer based in Barking, East London — I’m Eva and I bring a mother’s eye to every family photoshoot. My work is all about capturing authentic connection: the small gestures, the in-between laughs, the real moments that make a family unique. If you dislike forced smiles and stiff poses, you’ll find my sessions relaxed, playful and gently directed so everyone — especially children — feels comfortable. My home photo studio in Barking is cosy and practical: it’s set up for families with young children and newborns, with plenty of natural light, a baby changing area, refreshments, and a calm, welcoming atmosphere. I also regularly photograph families on location across East London and Essex when you prefer park, urban or meaningful-place portraits. Wherever we meet, my aim is the same — to create honest, warm images that look and feel like your family. The process is simple and thoughtfully planned. We begin with a pre-session consultation where we discuss styling, favourite colours, and any meaningful props or outfits you’d like to include. On the day I work quickly yet patiently, encouraging real moments rather than rehearsed poses. I balance gentle posing with candid shots, so you receive a varied gallery of portraits — from tender parent-and-child moments to lively sibling interactions. After your session I professionally edit and enhance your images, preserving the natural tones and emotions that make them special. You’ll be invited to a relaxed viewing and ordering appointment where we reveal your gallery and explore print, wall art and storytelling book options. I believe in tangible photography that becomes part of your home and your family story, so I offer handcrafted wall pieces and small modern books designed to be loved, handled and handed down. I photograph families, children and maternity in Barking, Dagenham, across East London and into Essex. As a mother of two I know how fleeting these stages are — my greatest joy is creating portraits that families will cherish for generations. If you’d like a calm, professional family photoshoot with attention to detail and a warm, personal approach, get in touch and let’s plan something beautiful together.
