Peacock Photography in Elland specialises in warm, natural family photoshoots. Lizzie creates relaxed outdoor and studio sessions that capture authentic connections between family members.
I’m Lizzie from Peacock Photography, based in Elland and passionate about creating family photographs you’ll treasure for a lifetime. Family photography is at the heart of what I do — I specialise in relaxed, natural photoshoots that focus on the real interactions between parents and children. My aim is to capture the small, unscripted moments that tell your family’s story: laughter, quiet cuddles and the little expressions that change so quickly. My approach is friendly and informal. Family shoots are generally outdoors — Beaumont Park in Huddersfield is a favourite — because I love to photograph families exploring and playing together; movement and simple activities make it easy to catch honest, joyful images. I’m equally happy to work in a studio or agreed indoor location when that suits the family. Sessions are fun and unhurried, and I encourage you to bring anything that feels meaningful to your family: toys, sports equipment or favourite blankets help children relax and add personal touches to the gallery. Working a lot with children and newborns has taught me to be patient, adaptable and child-led. I use gentle direction and a conversational style to help everyone feel at ease, so even camera-shy family members enjoy the experience. You’ll get a balanced mix of natural, documentary-style images and a few thoughtful posed portraits — timeless photographs you’ll be proud to display. From planning to delivery I focus on a personal service. Before the shoot we’ll have a friendly chat to choose the best time, location and any props or clothing ideas that will make the session feel authentic to you. On the day I work at a steady pace, creating a relaxed atmosphere so children can be themselves. After the shoot I curate a coherent gallery of edited images designed to feel classic and enduring. With a strong reputation across West Yorkshire and many five-star reviews, Peacock Photography combines warmth, experience and an eye for storytelling. If you’re looking for a family photographer in Elland who specialises in natural, heartfelt family portraits, I’d love to hear from you and help capture your moments to cherish forever.
