AnneliePop Photography

AnneliePop Photography is a family photography specialist based in Ilford (Redbridge), focused on capturing the honest, unscripted moments that make your family unique. Annelie’s approach is documentary-style reportage — she avoids forcing poses and instead watches for the real interactions, smiles and tiny gestures that tell your family’s story. The result is a gallery of natural, emotive images you’ll return to again and again. Why choose AnneliePop for your family photos? Annelie began photographing families in earnest after becoming a mother in 2011, and that personal experience informs every shoot. She knows how to build calm, warm sessions that put children — and parents — at ease. Her shoots are relaxed and fun; as she says, “kids that ignore me are my favourite kids.” Whether in her studio in Redbridge, at home, or out in a local park, Annelie prioritises comfort and authenticity so you get images that feel like you. How she works: every session is tailored to your family’s rhythm. Annelie starts with a friendly pre-shoot chat to understand what moments matter most to you, then creates a relaxed atmosphere on the day so everyone can be themselves. She uses a gentle, patient style with children and babies, giving parents space to enjoy the moment while she quietly captures it. This low-interruption method suits newborns, toddlers and older children alike, and translates into images that feel lived-in rather than staged. Special occasions and practical experience: as a family-focused photographer, Annelie regularly photographs family milestones — from birthday parties and christenings to studio family portraits and cake-smash sessions. She also runs charity mini-sessions twice a year in support of Women In Need London, reflecting her commitment to the local community. What you’ll receive: thoughtfully edited, high-quality images that celebrate your family’s connection. Annelie aims to make the whole process simple and enjoyable — from booking to viewing — so you can focus on making memories while she documents them. If you want a family photographer in Ilford who specialises in relaxed, documentary family portraits and children’s photography, AnneliePop brings experience, warmth and a storyteller’s eye to every shoot.
