MellSnap is a specialist family photography service based in East Molesey, led by Gaby — a photographer and mum who knows how precious everyday moments become over time. Her work centres on natural, outdoor family sessions that feel more like a relaxed day out than a formal photoshoot. If you want authentic images of your family being themselves — playful children, gentle family hugs, quiet sibling moments — Gaby’s approach is built around patience, ease and storytelling. Why choose MellSnap? Gaby’s experience photographing families across South West London gives her a keen eye for candid interaction and a knack for finding simple compositions that highlight emotion. She focuses on gentle, natural editing that preserves the feeling of the moment rather than heavy retouching. Clients often say the sessions feel like spending time with a friend: calm, unpressured and fun — a recipe that helps children relax and genuine smiles to emerge. How she works is intentionally straightforward and family-friendly. Everything begins with a free chat so Gaby can learn about your family, favourite locations, and the moments you most want to remember. On the day she creates a relaxed atmosphere where children lead the session — whether that means running, exploring or snuggling — allowing authentic moments to surface. After the session, images are carefully curated and softly edited, delivered via a private online gallery so you can view and download your photos easily. While family photography is MellSnap’s core expertise, Gaby also offers complementary sessions for maternity and event photography. These are approached with the same warm, natural style, making them a great option if you want to document milestones that tie into your family story — from bump shoots to birthday celebrations. Above all, MellSnap is driven by a simple belief: family photos should be joyful, honest and made to last. If you’re looking for an East Molesey family photographer who specialises in capturing real connection outdoors, Gaby at MellSnap offers a thoughtful, personal experience tailored to your family’s rhythm.
