Louise Pollitt Photography

If you’re looking for a family photographer in Batley who specialises in warm, emotive portraits, Louise Pollitt is a natural fit. Louise is a mother, an outdoors-lover and a storyteller with a camera — her work leans into a cosy, rustic, boho aesthetic that feels honest and timeless. Whether you want a relaxed studio session or an adventurous outdoor family photoshoot near Leeds, Huddersfield or Halifax, Louise designs each session to reflect your family’s personality and the little moments that matter. Her approach is gentle and unobtrusive. Louise blends posed family portraits with candid, documentary-style images so you end up with a balanced collection: classic group shots you’ll want on your wall, and spontaneous moments that capture laughter, sticky fingers and real connection. She understands children and newborns — sessions are calm, baby-led and paced so everyone (including mum and dad) can relax and enjoy the experience. Louise’s cosy home studio in Birstall is a creative, homely space filled with vintage props, textured wraps and natural tones that echo her signature style. It’s set up to make families feel at ease: baby changing facilities, toys to keep little ones occupied, and tea and coffee so you can literally put your feet up while Louise captures your memories. For families who prefer the outdoors, Louise loves natural light and locations that feel wild and free — fields, parks and quiet corners that add depth and atmosphere to your portraits. Working with Louise is a collaborative, down-to-earth process. She spends time before your session discussing colours, styling and the mood you want, so the images suit your home and your heart. After the shoot, Louise invites you back for a relaxed viewing where you can see your edited images and choose the portraits you’ll treasure. Her priority is to create a comfortable, enjoyable experience that results in professional family photos you’ll be proud to display. Specialist in family, children and newborn photography, Louise Pollitt Photography brings a distinct rustic warmth to every session. If you want family portraits that feel lived-in, honest and full of feeling — captured by someone who truly understands family life — Louise would love to hear from you and plan a photoshoot that’s uniquely yours.
