Neal Laver specialises in natural, on-location family photography from Haverhill. Relaxed portrait sessions and extended 'One Day With' shoots capture authentic family moments you’ll treasure.
Neal Laver is a specialist in family photography based in Haverhill, working across Suffolk and the neighbouring counties. His approach is simple: calm, unobtrusive and creative. Neal believes the best family pictures are honest ones — natural, candid moments that tell the real story of your life together rather than a string of staged poses. On-location portrait sessions are at the heart of Neal’s family work. Whether you choose a favourite park, your home or a beloved local spot, he uses the environment and natural light to create images that feel relaxed and timeless. Sessions are guided but never hurried — Neal listens, watches and waits for those genuine interactions that reveal personality and relationship. For families who want something deeper, Neal’s “One Day With…” sessions offer an immersive, documentary-style option. Spending several hours with your family, he captures breakfast routines, playtime, school runs and the small everyday moments that slip past so quickly. Minimal posing, maximum authenticity — the result is a rich collection of photographs that become a treasured family story. Neal is a full-time professional and a family man himself, so he understands how to work with children, grandparents, pets and groups of all ages. Clients often comment on his friendly, calm manner and how that relaxed atmosphere shows in the images. After a shoot Neal carefully grades and enhances each proof image, then shares them in a private online gallery so you can choose prints, wall art or keepsake albums — all produced to stand the test of time. Choosing Neal means hiring a photographer who values connection as much as composition. He brings years of experience in natural, candid portraiture and is fully equipped and insured to work in a variety of conditions. If you want family photographs that feel authentic, warm and built to last, Neal offers a personalised process from initial conversation to finished artwork — all delivered with the same quiet professionalism and creative eye that his clients praise. To discuss a family portrait session or a “One Day With…” family shoot in Haverhill, Suffolk or nearby, Neal would be delighted to hear from you.
