Kate Vincent Photography

If you value memories over posed perfection, Kate Vincent is the family photographer for you. Based on Hitchin High Street, Kate specialises in family photography with a gentle, no‑pressure approach that invites real connection. Her work is crafted for wild‑at‑heart families and sentimental souls who want portraits that feel honest, warm and true to life. Kate’s background as a mum and former teacher shapes how she works: calm, patient and exceptionally good with children. She knows how quickly family life moves and how little details can vanish in a blur. Her sessions are designed to slow things down — to give you a few peaceful hours to be together while she quietly captures the laughter, the sticky hands, the piggybacks and the small gestures that make your family unique. You won’t find stiff posing here. Kate favours natural light, soft tones and documentary‑led moments that celebrate real emotion. Most family shoots take place outdoors at sunrise or sunset to harness beautiful light and give kids the freedom to play, or in the comfort of your home when that feels right. Kate welcomes grandparents and four‑legged family members, and she’ll help you choose locations that suit your family’s vibe—woodland, meadow, beach or a favourite local spot across Hertfordshire and beyond. From your first enquiry to the finished gallery, Kate aims to make the experience easy and enjoyable. She offers a relaxed pre‑shoot consultation to plan outfits, locations and the kind of images you love, and she provides styling guidance (plus a curated client wardrobe) so you can arrive feeling confident. On the day she guides gently, listens closely and lets the session unfold naturally, creating an atmosphere where everyone can be themselves. Kate’s photographic philosophy is simple: your story deserves to be documented. The images she creates are meant to be lived with—hung on walls, passed down to your children and cherished for years to come. If you’re looking for a Hitchin family photographer who specialises in authentic, soulful portraits that reflect the real art of family life, Kate Vincent offers a thoughtful, experienced and deeply empathetic way to preserve your most precious moments.
