Emma Ferguson Photography

I’m Emma — a Bracknell-based family photographer who believes the best portraits come from real life, not rigid poses. My work is rooted in one simple idea: capturing the moment. Whether it’s a spontaneous giggle between siblings, the sleepy yawn of a newborn, or a child proudly showing off a found treasure, I aim to preserve those honest, everyday emotions that become family heirlooms. As a specialist in family photography I focus on creating a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. Sessions can take place in my home studio or at your favourite outdoor spot around Bracknell — whichever helps your family feel most comfortable. I work gently with children and newborns, using a conversational, patient approach that keeps sessions fun and natural. Pets are very welcome too; I know how important they are to the family dynamic and love including them in portraits. My style leans toward natural, documentary-led imagery with thoughtful framing and gentle direction when needed. I avoid forcing poses — instead I guide moments so genuine expressions shine through. This approach suits milestone shoots, family portraits, newborn and baby sessions, and relaxed lifestyle images that show how your family truly looks and feels together. From our first conversation to the finished images, I’m focused on making the experience easy and enjoyable. I start with a friendly chat to understand what matters to you — favourite locations, wardrobe ideas, or special connections you want to highlight. On the day, I create a calm pace so little ones can be themselves and parents can relax. After the shoot I carefully edit each image to bring out warmth and clarity, delivering a polished gallery that tells your family’s story. Based in Bracknell and available to travel, I’m passionate about helping families of all sizes capture memories they’ll return to again and again. If you’re looking for a family photographer who values natural moments, gentle direction and a personal touch, I’d love to hear about your plans and help create portraits you’ll cherish for years to come.
