Teresa Flanagan is a specialist family photographer in Hitchin, offering relaxed, fun at-home or outdoor family photoshoots. With over 10 years' experience she gently calms babies and children.
I’m Teresa, an award-winning family photographer based in Hitchin, Hertfordshire, and I specialise in creating timeless, natural family portraits that feel relaxed and true to you. Family photography is my core passion — I love capturing the small, unscripted moments between parents and children, the quiet snuggles, the cheeky smiles and the playful chaos that makes your family yours. My approach is relaxed, friendly and flexible. Sessions can take place in the comfort of your own home using my mobile studio equipment, at a favourite outdoor location, or in a natural lifestyle setting — whatever best suits your family and your story. I aim to keep sessions fun and low-pressure, offering a mix of group shots and individual portraits so you leave with a variety of images that work for your walls, albums and memories. Working with babies and children is a big part of what I do. As a mum of three, I know how to gently settle little ones, read their cues and create an atmosphere where they can be themselves. Parents often tell me I’m ‘patient’ and a bit of a ‘baby whisperer’ — those skills let me capture genuine expressions rather than forced smiles. Whether you’re bringing a newborn into the shoot or your toddler is full of energy, I adapt my pace and style to make the experience enjoyable for everyone. From initial contact to the finished images, I build a personal relationship with every client. I’ll listen to your ideas, share suggestions for styling and locations, and plan the session to reflect your family dynamic. On the day I work calmly and creatively, guiding poses but always leaving space for natural interaction. Based in Hitchin, I routinely work across Hertfordshire and surrounding areas. If you’re looking for professional family photos that feel authentic and beautiful, get in touch — I’d love to help you preserve these precious moments with photographs you’ll cherish for years to come.
