Natalie Jolley Photography

I’m Natalie — an award‑winning Hereford family photographer who believes the best family photos come from ease, warmth and real connection. As a mum with nearly twenty years behind the camera, I specialise in family photography and creating timeless, romantic portraits that reflect how you really are together. My approach is simple: make the process easy. Whether we meet at home, your favourite local spot, or I suggest somewhere special nearby, I work to create a relaxed atmosphere where children can run, explore, cuddle and be themselves. I blend documentary moments with gentle direction so you get authentic images alongside beautifully composed family portraits — no long waits, no forced poses, just honest, emotive pictures you’ll love. I photograph newborns, babies and children with patient, attentive care. New parents can expect calm, natural sessions that capture those tender first interactions; parents of toddlers can expect playful freedom and creative ideas; families of older children get portraits that feel modern, editorial and full of personality. My goal is always to translate your family’s story into a lasting visual legacy. My style sits between documentary and fine art — rich colour, considered composition and an eye for the little details that mean everything. I bring gentle energy, practical experience and a warm presence so that everyone from grandparents to littlest siblings feels comfortable. If you want professional family photos that look and feel like you, I’ll help design a session that fits your family rhythm and celebrates your connection. I also run occasional pet portrait sessions for charity and am happy to include furry family members in family shoots when that feels right. Based in Hereford, I travel locally across Herefordshire and the West Midlands — distance is rarely a problem if you’re looking for thoughtful, attentive family photography. If you’re ready to celebrate a chapter — a new baby, a birthday, or simply a family moment worth remembering — get in touch. Tell me what you love, what you don’t, and together we’ll create a relaxed photoshoot experience and images you’ll cherish for years.
