Photography by Fiona

Photography by Fiona is a Bristol-based family photography studio rooted in warmth, care and storytelling. Run by Fiona and Ryan, the team brings a uniquely personal touch to every family photoshoot: Fiona has over 14 years’ experience working with babies, children and families, and together they create a relaxed atmosphere that helps real personalities shine. Why choose Photography by Fiona? Because this is family photography done with heart. Sessions are calm and unhurried — whether in our cosy Bedminster studio or out on location around Bristol — so children can be themselves and families can enjoy the experience. Fiona looks for natural light and genuine connection, capturing the small, honest moments that become treasured portraits: the shy grin, the shared giggle, the quiet hug. Our approach is playful and practical. We know how to engage little ones (singing, clapping and gentle prompts), how to help parents feel at ease in front of the camera, and how to create imagery that works beautifully on your walls. The studio is thoughtfully stocked with blankets, outfits and props chosen to complement each family’s style, and sessions are tailored to your needs so every shoot feels personal rather than formulaic. We position family photography as a specialist craft — not a quick snapshot. From sibling portraits and milestone shoots to relaxed multi-generation sessions, Fiona focuses on storytelling: composition, light and emotion come together to make portraits that are both contemporary and timeless. Many families also appreciate that the team understands the rhythms of young children and babies, helping sessions flow naturally so you get authentic, joyful images. Working with Photography by Fiona is collaborative and straightforward. From first contact to the finished portraits, Fiona and Ryan guide you kindly through planning, shooting and delivery, prioritising comfort, safety and creativity. The result is a collection of images that feel true to your family now — photographs you’ll come back to again and again. If you’re in Bristol and looking for a family photographer who combines experience, warmth and a love of real moments, Photography by Fiona specialises in creating portraits you’ll treasure for years to come.
