Specialist family photographer in Chislehurst — Andrea of Rea Photography creates relaxed, playful sessions that put children at ease. Maternity, baby and family portraits in the home or on location.
Rea Photography is focused on one thing above all: capturing real family moments that feel effortless and true. Based in Chislehurst and led by Andrea, the studio specialises in family photography and maternity work, bringing a casual, fun approach that helps even the shyest children relax. Andrea’s style is warm, natural and playful — “We will play. We will get ice cream on our noses and sand in our hair.” — because the best images come from genuine interactions, not stiff poses. Why choose Rea Photography? Andrea budgets extra up-front time to get to know your children and family rhythm, so sessions flow and smiles come easily. Whether you prefer the intimacy of a home session, the charm of a nearby park or a special outdoor location, she adapts to what makes your family comfortable. Sessions are flexible in length and pace — Andrea will keep going until she has captured the moment that truly represents your family. What makes the approach special is its combination of patience, creativity and a documentary sensibility. Andrea blends a few classic portraits with documentary-style candids that show connection, movement and personality. She has extensive experience photographing babies and children, and she understands how to work around naps, mood swings and the occasional meltdown — often finding the sweetest shots when you least expect them. Rea Photography specialises in family milestones: maternity shoots that celebrate the expectant moment and family sessions that include babies and young children. Andrea treats every session as a bespoke experience, offering styling guidance and a relaxed atmosphere so families can enjoy the time together. For first birthdays and cake-smash style celebrations, she brings the same playful energy and care to create memories you’ll want to display and revisit. From the first enquiry to the private viewing, Andrea aims to make the process simple and enjoyable. Her goal is to deliver photographs that look and feel like your family — honest, affectionate and full of life. If you’re in Chislehurst or the surrounding area and want a family photographer who specialises in natural, story-driven images, Rea Photography offers a friendly, professional approach tailored to your family’s story.
