Shona Witt Photography

Shona Witt is a Carshalton-based family photographer who specialises in honest, emotive family photography. Her approach is simple: slow down, get to know your family, and create a relaxed space where authentic moments can happen. Whether you choose the bright calm of her studio or the changing light of a nearby park, Shona focuses on capturing connection — those small gestures and glances that turn a session into a time capsule you’ll cherish for years. Why choose Shona for your family photoshoot in Carshalton? She treats every session as a collaboration, guiding families with gentle direction while keeping the experience child-led and fun. This makes even camera-shy little ones feel comfortable and allows natural personalities to shine. Shona is a self-described “light chaser”: she plans shoots around beautiful natural light and seasonal backdrops to create images with a warm, timeless quality. Her process is designed to be easy and personal. Every booking begins with a pre-session chat via email or WhatsApp to understand what matters to you — from outfit ideas to location preferences. On the day, enjoy a calm, unhurried shoot where Shona offers clear, friendly guidance and encourages real interaction rather than stiff posing. Afterwards, each favourite image is hand-edited to enhance natural tones and mood, then delivered through a personalised online gallery for effortless viewing and selection. While family photography is Shona’s core expertise, she also photographs maternity and supports clients who need professional portraits or headshots. However, her heart lies in family work: capturing siblings at play, parents lost in a smile, newborn cuddles, and the everyday tenderness that defines family life. Based in Carshalton, Shona knows the best local locations and how to use the seasons to your advantage. If you want family portraits that feel relaxed, authentic and beautifully lit — portraits that look and feel like your family — Shona Witt will guide you from first enquiry to final gallery with warmth, professionalism and an eye for lasting moments.
