Natalie Cornish Photography

If you’re looking for a family photographer in Billericay who cares more about real connection than stiff poses, you’ll feel right at home with Natalie Cornish. Natalie’s work centres on capturing the small, honest moments that make your family unique — the cheeky grin, the shared joke, the quiet cuddle — and turning them into images you’ll want on your walls. Her approach is warm, conversational and often a little bit daft (in the best possible way). She spends time getting to know you, chats with the children, and creates a relaxed atmosphere where personalities shine. Natalie directs gently when needed — moving you into the most flattering light or suggesting a simple pose — but her favourite frames are the in-between moments when everyone is just being themselves. That balance of light guidance and natural play is what gives her family portraits their timeless, emotive quality. Sessions can take place in her calm, homely studio in Ramsden Heath, Billericay, or out in the Essex countryside at locations chosen to suit your family. Outdoors she’ll lead gentle walks and playful prompts to capture movement and spontaneous interaction; in the studio she focuses on simple, elegant compositions that showcase relationships and character. She’s especially good with toddlers and children, tailoring each shoot to your child’s energy and mood so the experience is fun for them and stress-free for parents — even the dads who “get dragged along”. Natalie believes photos are about memories as much as they are about prints. She’ll work with you before the session to recommend outfits and to understand what you want from the shoot, creating a personalised plan so your session flows naturally. Her aim is always the same: to create family portraits that feel genuine, relaxed and full of life — images you’ll treasure for years to come. While family photography is her specialist focus, Natalie also photographs maternity and baby moments and can advise on including these stages in your photographic journey. Based in Billericay, she’s proud to serve families across Essex and beyond, bringing a friendly, down-to-earth style to every family photoshoot.
