Marta Smiech is a specialist family photographer in Kettering, creating relaxed, timeless family portraits and children sessions in studio or nearby outdoor locations.
As a dedicated family specialist based in Kettering, Marta Smiech approaches each session with a single aim: to freeze your memories in images you’ll love for years. Marta’s work centres on creating timeless frames that celebrate genuine relationships, natural emotion and the little details that make your family unique. Whether you prefer the intimacy of her studio or the relaxed atmosphere of a favourite outdoor spot, Marta tailors every session to fit your family’s personality and pace. Marta believes great family photography comes from calm, confident direction and an atmosphere where everyone — including the most camera-shy children — feels at ease. She guides couples and parents with gentle posing, playful prompts and quick, candid moments so that smiles and connections feel authentic rather than forced. For younger children she uses a patient, playful approach that encourages them to be themselves; for older kids and adults she creates simple, elegant compositions that stand the test of time. Studio sessions in Kettering are arranged to be comfortable and practical: a curated collection of outfits and simple props is available to help create cohesive, stylish images without clutter. Marta also offers outdoor family shoots in nearby parks and natural locations when you want a softer, lifestyle feel. For the special early days, she works with newborns and babies in a safety-first way, ensuring every pose prioritises the child’s comfort and parents’ peace of mind. Marta’s process begins with a friendly pre-session conversation to discuss style, location and what you want to remember. On the day she creates a relaxed, unhurried environment, guiding you through group, parent-child and individual portraits so you leave with a varied collection of images that tell your family’s story. Finished images are delivered thoughtfully via an online gallery so you can easily share and print the moments you love. If you want a family photographer in Kettering who focuses on authentic emotion, careful guidance and timeless portraits, Marta Smiech specialises in making your session stress‑free and memorable.
