Finchley family photographer Bruna Casotti specialises in authentic, relaxed family photoshoots. With 13 years' experience she captures newborns, babies, children and natural family portraits.
I love to capture the precious moments that you have with your family. Based in Finchley, London, I’m Bruna Casotti — a Brazilian/Italian family photographer with 13 years of professional experience. My work is centred on real connection: the tiny gestures, the spontaneous laughter, the quiet embraces that become the images you’ll cherish for years. As a specialist in family photography, I focus on sessions that feel warm, relaxed and genuine. Whether you’re booking a newborn shoot, a baby milestone, a playful children’s session or a full family portrait, my aim is the same: to create an atmosphere where everyone—especially little ones—can be themselves. I spend time getting to know your family before the shoot, choosing locations in Finchley or around London that suit your style, and planning simple prompts that lead to honest moments rather than posed stiffness. My approach blends gentle direction with a documentary eye. I encourage natural interaction and movement to capture authentic expressions and relationships. For newborn and baby sessions I prioritise comfort and safety, working patiently to follow your child’s rhythm. For older children and family groups I use play, storytelling and casual prompts to unlock real smiles and candid reactions. Working with me is collaborative and straightforward. We’ll discuss ideas and logistics in advance so you feel prepared and relaxed on the day. After the shoot I carefully edit each image to enhance mood and tone while preserving the natural feeling of the moment. Final images are delivered in a thoughtfully presented gallery, and I can also help you create photo albums to keep your memories safe and tangible. While family photography is my core specialism, I also have experience across events and portrait work and often bring that same attention to detail to family sessions. If you’re in Finchley or Greater London and looking for a family photographer who values warmth, authenticity and a calm, personal process, I’d love to hear from you.
