Joanna Wallace is a Farnham-based family specialist creating relaxed, natural portraits—outdoors, at home or in her cosy home studio. Her gentle, playful approach helps even shy children feel at ease.
If you’re searching for a family photographer in Farnham who truly understands family life, Joanna Wallace is the specialist to trust. Based in Farnham, Surrey, Jo’s work focuses on relaxed, natural family photography that freezes those fleeting everyday moments — from woodland games at golden hour to quiet cuddles at home. Jo is a mum of two boys, so she knows how precious and fast-moving family life can be. That lived experience shapes her sessions: calm, playful and child-led. Her aim is to capture honest connection rather than staged poses, creating images you’ll want on your wall and in your hands as your family grows. How she works: every client begins with a friendly chat to choose the right setting — an outdoor stroll at a location like Frensham Little Pond, a relaxed in-house session, or a cosy shoot in Jo’s home studio. After booking you’ll receive a welcome booklet and styling guide to help plan outfits and prepare the house. On the day Jo moves around your home to find the best light, or scouts the best spots outdoors, keeping the session pace comfortable so children can be themselves. For little ones she adopts a baby-led, no-rush approach and is happy to pause for feeds, naps or cuddles. Jo’s studio milestone sessions are perfect for first birthdays and cake-smash fun, while maternity and newborn sessions allow you to preserve the early stages of parenthood. She also offers seasonal mini sessions in the studio for those special moments throughout the year. Wherever we shoot, Jo’s editing style is warm, natural and heartfelt — designed to feel timeless and keep the focus on emotion and connection. Choosing Joanna Wallace Photography means choosing a Farnham-based photographer who specialises in family photography and treats each family with kindness, patience and a creative eye. If you want relaxed, heartfelt images that reflect your true family story, Jo can’t wait to hear from you. Jo x
