Katrin Vashkevich Photography

As a dedicated family photographer based in Cambridge, I specialise in creating relaxed, natural portraits that celebrate real family life. My work focuses on capturing personality and connection — the small gestures, the laughter, the quiet moments — so your photos feel like honest keepsakes rather than staged snapshots. I bring my portrait experience to every session, guiding families gently so everyone from toddlers to grandparents feels at ease. My approach is warm, unobtrusive and tailored to your family. Whether we meet in your home, at a favourite outdoor spot, or in studio by request, I prioritise atmosphere: playfulness for little ones, calm for newborns, and genuine interaction for everyone involved. I plan each shoot with a short consultation and a moodboard so we share the same vision and you know what to expect. I’ll help with location, outfits and simple prop ideas — practical guidance that makes the day comfortable and fun. Working with children and newborns requires patience, sensitivity and an eye for moment-led storytelling. I use gentle direction and natural prompts that invite authentic reactions instead of stiff posing, so you end up with images that feel alive and timeless. My editing is careful and considered: I deliver a curated, fully edited gallery where you can choose favourites and order prints if you wish. Choosing me means choosing someone who treats family photography as more than a shoot — it’s a way to preserve the texture of everyday life. I’m based in Cambridge and happy to work across the UK. If you’re looking for a photographer who values connection, creates a relaxed session experience, and delivers beautiful, story-driven family portraits, let’s talk. I’ll make sure the process is simple, enjoyable and focused on capturing the truest version of your family.
