The Photography Mill

The Photography Mill is a family photography studio in Kempston led by the duo Tam & Kayleigh. As specialists in family photography, they bring a warm, conversational approach that helps everyone — from newborns to grandparents — feel at ease. Their double-act dynamic means two experienced eyes and ideas on every shoot, creating an energetic but calm atmosphere where genuine smiles and real moments can unfold. Why choose The Photography Mill for your family photos? Tam & Kayleigh have built their practice around people. They focus on natural, relaxed images rather than stiff poses, and their goal is to capture the true personality of your family. Whether it’s the tiny details of a newborn, the playful chaos of toddlers, or quiet multi-generational portraits, they work to create images you’ll treasure for years. Their style balances candid documentary moments with beautiful, classic family portraits. In the studio you’ll find thoughtfully curated backdrops, props and a cosy environment designed to make kids (and grown-ups) feel comfortable. Pets are welcome and small touches — favourite toys, a treasured blanket, or special heirlooms — are encouraged to personalise your session and make images feel uniquely yours. How they work: sessions are relaxed and unhurried so families can move at their own pace. Tam & Kayleigh listen to what matters most to you, offering gentle direction when needed and plenty of quiet time for natural interaction. Their experience with newborns and maternity means they understand the practicalities involved — and they always prioritise comfort and safety. After the shoot they present your images with care, helping you choose the photographs that best tell your family’s story. Rooted in Kempston and proud of their Bedfordshire studio, The Photography Mill combines professional craft with a friendly, down-to-earth approach. If you want family photography that feels personal, joyful and authentic, Tam & Kayleigh specialise in creating portraits that capture the real you — simple, timeless and full of life.
