About the Photographer

35 Years of Experience
Established 1984

Lockwood Studios has been creating portrait experiences for local families in Dartford and Crayford for over three decades. As a family-run studio led by Les Lockwood — a Master Portrait Photographer and national award winner — we specialise in family photography and family portraiture, with a warm, relaxed approach that helps every generation feel at ease in front of the camera. Why choose Lockwood Studios? We treat each session as a collaborative portrait experience. Whether you’re booking a multi-generation family portrait, a newborn shoot or a maternity session, our priority is to capture authentic connection and honest emotion. Our style favours timeless, natural images that will sit proudly on your wall for years to come rather than chasing fast-moving trends. What makes our approach special is the combination of technical craft and a gentle, family-first way of working. Les and the team know how to guide children, soothe newborns and help parents relax so real smiles and small moments emerge. The studio is designed to be a welcoming space — we offer a private viewing lounge where you can instantly enjoy and select the portraits produced on the day. That immediate viewing creates an enjoyable, celebratory atmosphere and ensures you leave with the images you love. How we work with you: every family photoshoot starts with a conversation about what matters most — the people, the relationships and the memories you want to preserve. On the day we create a calm, playful environment for children and newborns, use thoughtfully chosen backdrops, props and wardrobe options, and move at the pace your family needs. For new parents, our Baby Club and newborn portrait experiences are designed to document those first life-changing months with repeat sessions that capture unique milestones. Our passion is simple: we love making portraits that become family heirlooms. As a Dartford-based studio with deep roots in the community, Lockwood Studios combines experience, awards recognition and a genuine care for families. If you’re looking for professional family photos that feel personal, relaxed and beautifully made, get in touch and start your family portrait journey with us.
