KLowde Photography offers relaxed, natural family photoshoots in Kidsgrove and across Staffordshire. Kirsty captures genuine moments with newborn, baby and children sessions in studio or outdoors.
Hello — I’m Kirsty, the photographer behind KLowde Photography. As a Staffordshire-based family photographer with eight years’ professional experience, I specialise in relaxed, natural family photoshoots that focus on real connection rather than stiff posing. Based from a home studio in Wheaton Aston and serving Kidsgrove and the wider Staffordshire area, my goal is to capture the little moments that matter — the cuddles, the laughter and the tiny details you’ll treasure for years. Why choose KLowde Photography for your family portraits? My approach is warm, down-to-earth and relaxed yet fun. I know that being in front of a camera can feel awkward, especially with children, so I work conversationally and patiently to make everyone feel at ease. That calm, friendly atmosphere helps even the most camera-shy family members relax so I can capture authentic expressions and natural interactions. What makes my sessions different is the balance between documentary-style storytelling and thoughtful portraiture. I’ll photograph candid family moments as they unfold and also guide a few simple, flattering poses so you come away with a varied collection of images — timeless group portraits, close-up newborn shots, playful children’s frames and gentle sibling moments. How I work: before your session we’ll chat about what matters most to you — whether you prefer a warm, studio portrait, a playful outdoor shoot, or a newborn/baby session designed around feeds and naps. My studio is equipped with a selection of backgrounds and props, and I also offer outdoor family sessions to make the most of natural light and landscapes. During the shoot I keep things relaxed and flexible, tailoring the pace to your family’s needs. I love that much of my work comes through referrals from happy couples and families — nothing means more than trusting relationships and photos that make you smile. While family photography is my core specialism, I also photograph newborns, babies and children as part of those family milestones. If you’d like a friendly, natural photographer in Kidsgrove or Staffordshire who focuses on capturing genuine family stories, I’d love to hear from you.
