Albalone Photography

Hi, I’m Alba of Albalone Photography — a family photographer and filmmaker based in Broadstairs, Kent. My practice is rooted in storytelling: I’m here to capture the small, messy, perfect moments that tell the true story of your family rather than staging a series of posed shots. If you value images and films that feel honest, warm and timeless, my work is for you. Why choose me? I specialise in family photography and family filmmaking, so every part of the experience is designed around connection. I listen first: before we meet, we’ll have a video call so I can understand what matters to you — the rituals, the jokes, the small tokens that make your family unique. That insight shapes the session and the subtle directions I offer, so the final images and films feel recognisable as yours. My approach is gentle, patient and natural. I focus on slowing down the moment so you can relax and be present with each other. Whether we’re exploring a windswept beach, a quiet patch of woodland, or the cosy corners of your home in Broadstairs, I look for light, movement and the honest gestures that reveal love. I provide a Welcome Guide, styling advice and access to a client wardrobe to help you feel confident and prepared — not like you’re dressing for a photoshoot, but for a day that feels like you. Video is a central part of what I offer: cinematic family films preserve not just faces but voices, laughter and the small sounds of life. I can weave spoken letters and natural audio into a film so the finished piece becomes a living keepsake your family will return to for years. Films and photographs are delivered thoughtfully, and I can help you turn them into heirloom prints or albums to keep your story on the walls and shelves of your home. I welcome families across Broadstairs, Kent and London, and I’m proud to create a relaxed space for all kinds of households — including newborn and baby sessions when they fit your story. If you’re after a family photographer who prioritises feeling over posing and film as a way to remember more than a single moment, I’d love to hear your story and begin planning a session together.
