Specialist family photographer in Guildford. Aliana creates relaxed, natural portraits that celebrate your family's connection, whether in her cosy studio or on location around Surrey.
I’m Aliana, a Guildford-based family photographer who loves capturing the small, honest moments that make your family unique. As a mum and a photographer since 2013, I understand how precious these seasons are — and I specialise in creating warm, natural family portraits that feel like you. I position myself as a family specialist, bringing heart, patience and experience to every session. My approach is relaxed and personal. Whether we meet in my cosy Guildford studio or explore one of Surrey’s beautiful outdoor locations, I aim to create a comfortable atmosphere where children can be themselves and parents can relax. I combine gentle direction with a documentary eye so you’ll get a blend of natural, candid moments alongside timeless, posed family portraits. The result is a gallery of images that tell your story — laughter, tiny hands, connections and the everyday magic you’ll want to keep. I also specialise in maternity photography as part of my family work — celebrating that expectant glow and the anticipation of new beginnings. I take time to discuss your vision before the session, offer wardrobe guidance, and ensure the experience is tailored to what feels right for you. Safety, comfort and a calm pace are always a priority, especially when little ones are involved. Working with me is simple and friendly. We start with a chat to understand your family, choose locations and plan outfits that photograph well together. On the day, I focus on creating a fun, low-stress session that suits your children’s energy and your family dynamic. I pride myself on patience and an ability to put even camera-shy family members at ease. I believe beautiful photography deserves to be seen and cherished. Alongside digital images, I can help you select prints and wall art that turn your favourite photographs into lasting family heirlooms. Serving Guildford and the surrounding Surrey areas, my goal is to create portraits you’ll be proud to display and pass down. If you’re looking for a family specialist who captures warmth, connection and authenticity in every image, I’d love to hear about your family and plan a session that feels truly yours.
