Serenity Eye Photography

Serenity Eye Photography is a family photography specialist based in Exmouth, Devon, led by Emz — a mum and award-winning photographer with roots as a Royal Navy Photographer and 17 years of experience. If you want family portraits that feel natural, timeless and full of connection, you’ll find a calm, personal approach here. Why choose Serenity Eye? Emz specialises in family and maternity photography, bringing a gentle, reassuring presence that puts parents and children at ease. Her combination of professional training (BIPP membership and specialist newborn safety training) and lived experience as a parent means she understands how to capture the small, fleeting moments that matter: the quiet glance between partners, the giddy laugh of a child, the tender way a new baby nestles into a parent’s arms. What makes the approach special is simplicity and warmth. Sessions are relaxed and unhurried in a studio designed to feel like a second home — cosy, safe and welcoming for babies, siblings and parents. Emz balances posed, classic family portraits with candid, documentary-style images so you leave with a collection that feels both beautiful and genuinely you. Maternity sessions are handled with sensitivity and style, while newborn and baby moments are captured in a calm environment with experienced, safety-first handling. How Serenity Eye works with families matters: each session begins with a friendly consultation so you can discuss the style, colours and any personal touches you want to include. On the day, the aim is to create a relaxed atmosphere that encourages natural interactions — play, hugs, tickles and genuine smiles — while Emz gently guides poses to ensure flattering, timeless results. The relationship is collaborative; sentimental items, favourite toys and family pets are welcomed and thoughtfully incorporated when requested. Rooted in Exmouth, Serenity Eye loves to use both the studio and the beautiful Devon coastline and countryside for location shoots when you want a more natural, outdoor feel. Whether you’re booking a maternity shoot to celebrate a growing family, a newborn sitting to freeze the earliest days, or a full family portrait to hang on the wall, Emz brings care, experience and a clear eye for the emotional moments that become heirloom images.
