Based in Birmingham, Simran Channa Photography specialises in relaxed family photoshoots. From newborns to lively children, Simran creates natural portraits that celebrate genuine family bonds.
Simran Channa Photography is a Birmingham-based specialist in family photography, dedicated to creating warm, honest portraits that reflect real family life. Simran’s work focuses on those in-between moments—the quiet cuddle with a newborn, an impromptu giggle between siblings, the gentle way parents look at their children. Her approach is rooted in patience, warmth and a calm presence that helps every member of the family feel at ease in front of the lens. Why choose Simran for your family photoshoot? Simran treats each session as a personalised story-telling opportunity. Rather than forcing stiff poses, she uses gentle guidance and unobtrusive direction to capture natural interactions and authentic expressions. The result is a collection of images that feel personal and timeless: family portraits you’ll be proud to display and moments you’ll return to again and again. What makes her approach special is a balance of documentary sensitivity and thoughtful composition. Whether you’re booking a newborn session, a baby milestone shoot or a children’s portrait session, Simran adapts her pace to the needs of your family—working slowly with new babies, keeping toddlers engaged with playful prompts, and shaping relaxed family groupings that reveal true relationships. She is experienced in milestone shoots and celebratory cake-smash sessions, delivering images that are joyful and full of personality. How the process works: Simran begins with a short conversation to understand your family, your children’s ages and the mood you’d like to create. Sessions are tailored to suit your family—whether you prefer the comfort of your home, a favourite local park or another meaningful Birmingham location. On the day, Simran focuses on creating a relaxed atmosphere, guiding rather than directing, and capturing those spontaneous moments that matter most. After the shoot, images are carefully edited to enhance natural tones and emotions while keeping the look authentic. Rooted in genuine care for families and a love of storytelling through images, Simran Channa Photography offers family photoshoots that feel effortless and real. If you’re in Birmingham and want family portraits that celebrate connection—newborn cuddles, playful children, or milestone moments—Simran brings the skill and sensitivity to preserve those memories beautifully.
