Little Bodhi Photography in Bristol creates natural, relaxed family photos that capture true connections. Specialist family photographer with a gentle, documentary approach.
Little Bodhi Photography is a Bristol-based specialist in family photography, dedicated to creating authentic, emotive portraits that reflect real family life. With a warm, unobtrusive approach, Little Bodhi focuses on the connections, candid moments and small details that make each family unique. The goal is not posed perfection but honest storytelling — images that feel like the family you recognise at home. As a family photography specialist, Little Bodhi blends documentary-style observation with light, considered composition to produce timeless photographs. Sessions are guided rather than staged: the photographer gently encourages natural interaction, laughter and play so parents and children can relax and be themselves. This method helps even camera-shy family members unwind and leads to more natural expressions and meaningful photographs. Working across Bristol and the surrounding area, Little Bodhi adapts each session to what suits your family best — whether that’s a relaxed shoot at home, a playful afternoon in a favourite outdoor spot, or a studio-style portrait with a calm, controlled atmosphere. The emphasis is always on comfort and connection: creating a warm, reassuring environment where stories unfold naturally and memories are made. Little Bodhi’s experience and friendly manner also extend to complementary maternity and small business branding sessions. While family photography remains the core expertise, the photographer brings the same sensitivity and eye for authentic moments to maternity shoots and to relaxed, personal branding work for local small businesses. These secondary offerings are handled with the same attention to detail and emphasis on natural, human-centred imagery. Choosing Little Bodhi means choosing a specialist who values patience, warmth and storytelling. From the first conversation through to the final images, you’ll find a collaborative, calm process designed around your family’s personality. The result is a collection of photographs that won’t just hang on the wall — they’ll become treasured pieces of your family’s story, captured with care in the heart of Bristol.
