Coalville family photographer specialising in relaxed, documentary-style family, newborn and children portraits. Olivia creates natural, heartfelt images using gentle prompts and playful activities to keep little ones at ease.
I’m Olivia — the face behind Livi Gee Photography — and I specialise in family photography from my Coalville base in Leicestershire. My work centres on a relaxed, documentary-style approach that favours natural light, real connection and those small, unplanned moments that become the images you return to again and again. Why choose me? I treat every session as an individual story. Whether we’re meeting in your favourite park, exploring a quiet woodland or staying cosy at home for a newborn shoot, I focus on making the experience simple, fun and true to you. I pride myself on an individualised service: I’ll help pick locations, suggest small wardrobe touches or props, and plan the session so we get both natural, candid shots and a handful of lovely portraits that feel timeless. Working with children and babies is something I absolutely love. I bring games, gentle prompts and a calm energy to keep little ones engaged — and I’m perfectly happy to include pets and siblings too. For newborn sessions I often shoot at home, using 100% natural light and simple props like baskets; this keeps things relaxed for parents and lets the session feel authentic and comfortable. My aim is to be discreet rather than intrusive. I shoot in a way that lets you remain present with your family while I capture genuine emotion — laughter, hugs, sleepy newborn cuddles and those tiny details that tell your family’s story. After the shoot, I edit each gallery with care, keeping a warm, natural palette and offering tasteful black-and-white options so you can choose what best suits your home and heart. Based in Coalville and covering the Midlands, I combine a friendly, down-to-earth approach with a sharp eye for detail. I’m a relaxed, (sometimes bad-joke-telling) photographer who takes reliability seriously — from planning to delivering a gallery you’ll love. If you’d like a family photoshoot that feels easy, joyful and full of real moments, drop me a message and let’s start planning.
