Jessica Tyler is a Hitchin-based family photographer specialising in relaxed, storytelling family photoshoots. She captures natural moments with children and newborns at home or outdoors.
I’m Jessica — a Hitchin-based family photographer who believes the best portraits come from relaxed, unscripted moments. As a mum myself, I know how quickly the little people in your life change, and my work centres on preserving those genuine, everyday connections in images you’ll treasure for years. I position Jessica Tyler Photography as a family specialist: my focus is on creating calm, joyful sessions that feel like an afternoon with a friend, not a formal photoshoot. My approach is all about storytelling. I look for the small interactions — the way siblings share a joke, the way a toddler concentrates on a puddle, the quiet cuddle between parent and baby — and shape a gallery of images that reflects your family’s personality. Lighting, location and a gentle nudge are tools I use sparingly; I prefer to let real moments unfold and capture them with an unobtrusive, documentary feel. The result is natural, warm family portraits and children photography that feel timeless rather than staged. Working with families means flexibility and patience, and that’s exactly what I bring. Whether you’re more comfortable in your own home or would love a relaxed outdoor session around Hitchin, I’ll guide you through the whole process — from planning outfits to choosing locations and putting everyone at ease on the day. I love helping parents prepare so shoots run smoothly: practical tips, a calm atmosphere and a playful approach help even camera-shy little ones relax and enjoy themselves. I’m proud of the friendly, supportive relationship I build with clients. Sessions are relaxed and fun, and I aim to make the experience enjoyable for every family member. After the shoot, I carefully edit and curate your images to highlight the moments that matter most, delivering a collection that tells your family’s story. If you’re looking for a family photographer in Hitchin who specialises in heartfelt, storytelling family photoshoots — someone who understands children, newborns and family dynamics — I’d love to hear from you. Let’s capture the real, joyful moments that make your family uniquely yours.
