Specialist family photographer in Bridgwater. Julie creates colourful, classic family portraits with a relaxed, natural-light approach—perfect for newborns, children and milestone shoots.
I’m Julie Rose, the photographer behind Lollipop Photography UK, based in Bridgwater, Somerset. Family photography is at the heart of what I do — I specialise in creating colourful, classic images that celebrate family life in a relaxed, natural way. Whether it’s a playful session on the beach, a cosy woodland walk on the Quantock Hills, or tender portraits at home, I work with natural light to bring out authentic moments and real connections. My approach is gentle and conversational. I know how to guide families — from couples and toddlers to grandparents and the family dog — so that everyone feels comfortable and children can be themselves. As a mother myself, I understand the small details that make family images so precious. I love capturing the everyday gestures, the laughter, the quiet cuddles and the little personalities that make your family unique. I treat each shoot as a story: we’ll choose a location that means something to you or one of my favourite Somerset backdrops, and together we’ll create a relaxed atmosphere where memories unfold naturally. I focus on playful prompts and simple direction that encourage genuine reactions rather than stiff poses. The result is a collection of images that feel timeless and personal — perfect for wall art, albums or sharing with loved ones. My experience includes newborn and baby photography as part of family sessions, and I take great care with the comfort and safety of the youngest family members. I’m happy to capture milestone moments such as baptisms, communions and birthdays as part of a family narrative, always respecting the tone and occasion that each family wants to preserve. Choosing Lollipop Photography UK means choosing someone who knows Somerset intimately and who loves photographing families across Bridgwater, Burnham-on-Sea, Weston-super-Mare, Taunton and beyond. My style is warm, colourful and classic with a relaxed vibe — I aim to make your session enjoyable and stress-free so you can look back on images that truly reflect your family. If you’re looking for professional family photos that feel genuine and beautifully crafted, get in touch and let’s plan a shoot that tells your family’s story.
