Lens By Hannah is a Chorley-based specialist in family photography. She creates relaxed, natural family portraits that capture authentic connections and become timeless keepsakes for generations.
Lens By Hannah brings a specialist's eye to family photography in Chorley, focusing on honest, relaxed portraits that celebrate real relationships. Grounded in the belief that the best photographs come from authentic connection, she aims to create an atmosphere where families feel at ease — laugh freely, move naturally, and be themselves. The result is imagery that feels genuine, timeless, and full of life. Her approach is warm and unobtrusive. Sessions are tailored around your family’s rhythm rather than a rigid checklist: a short pre-shoot chat to understand what matters to you, gentle direction to help everyone feel comfortable, and an emphasis on capturing candid moments as much as classic portraits. Whether you prefer the soft light of a nearby park or the familiar comfort of your home, Hannah uses natural light and unobtrusive composition to craft images that look and feel like you. Experience and a calm presence are central to Hannah’s work. Years behind the lens have taught her how to read moments and anticipate the small gestures that become the heart of a family story. She values the quiet details — a shared smile, a soft touch, the way children tuck into a parent — and places those moments at the core of every gallery she delivers. This is family photography designed to be passed down: photographs that age gracefully and hold meaning long after the session ends. Working with Lens By Hannah is collaborative and straightforward. From the first enquiry to receiving your final images, she aims to make the process friendly and personal. Clear communication, thoughtful planning, and a relaxed session day help families enjoy the experience while Hannah focuses on capturing the moments worth keeping. Her editing style enhances the mood of each photograph while maintaining a natural, timeless look — images that feel authentic and ready for both display and memory-keeping. Based in Chorley, Lens By Hannah is dedicated to preserving your family’s unique story through beautiful, unobtrusive photography. If you want portraits that reflect who you are — relaxed, true-to-life, and full of feeling — Hannah’s family sessions are designed to create lasting memories you’ll come back to again and again.
