Jimmy Cheng Photography

Hi, I’m Jimmy — a picture taker, time freezer, moment recorder and visual story-teller based in Bexley. Family photography is my core passion and what I’m best known for: creating natural, emotive images that become family heirlooms. I specialise in relaxed, story-driven family photoshoots that celebrate newborns, babies, children and the everyday moments that make your family unique. My approach is simple and human. I aim to put everyone at ease — from new parents meeting a camera for the first time to energetic toddlers who’d rather be playing. I work with gentle direction, playful prompts and plenty of patience so that sessions feel fun and comfortable, not staged. The result is honest, candid photography woven with a few carefully crafted portraits to hang on your wall. Location matters, and being local to Bexley means I know where to find beautiful light and quiet spots for family portraits. Whether you prefer a relaxed outdoor shoot, a cosy at-home lifestyle session, or a location that’s special to your family, I tailor the session to fit the mood you want to remember. I also offer specialist coverage for milestone moments like baptisms, communions and birthday portraits, always with the same calm, storytelling style. Working with me is collaborative. We start with a conversation — often over a coffee — to understand what matters to you, plan the best time and place (I’ll advise on light and simple styling like smart-casual outfits), and make sure everyone knows what to expect on the day. After the shoot I deliver thoughtfully edited images that reflect the warmth and personality of your family. Many of my clients come back again and again — I love seeing children grow up through my lens. If you’re after family portraits that feel genuine, relaxed and a little bit cinematic, let’s talk. Book a chat and we’ll plan a session that captures the moments you’ll want to look back on for years to come.
