Specialist Kilwinning family photographer offering relaxed studio and outdoor sessions. I create warm, natural family portraits that feel fun, personal and timeless.
Katie Murphy Photography is a specialist in family photography based in Kilwinning, serving families across Ayrshire with a warm, personal touch. Katie’s approach centres on creating a relaxed, fun atmosphere where real connections and natural moments can shine — no stiff poses, just genuine smiles, cuddles and the little interactions that make your family unique. Why choose Katie? She’s a memory-capturer and storyteller who knows how to put both parents and children at ease. Whether you prefer a cosy studio session or a relaxed outdoor shoot, Katie focuses on authentic emotion and timeless composition. Her style blends soft natural light, uncluttered backdrops and playful direction so portraits feel both beautiful and true to your family’s personality. How she works: every session begins with a friendly pre-shoot chat to understand what matters most to you — favourite locations, colour palettes, or special relationships you want highlighted. On the day, Katie creates a calm, welcoming environment where children can be themselves and parents can relax. For newborn and baby additions, sessions are baby-led and paced around feeds and cuddles, ensuring comfort while capturing those tiny details you’ll want to remember forever. Families are always encouraged to include siblings (and pets where suitable) so every important connection is celebrated. Katie’s story and passion shine through in every image. Having studied photography and grown her business over several years, she genuinely loves meeting new families, hearing their stories, and turning everyday moments into keepsakes. Her sessions are honest, affectionate and designed to create heirloom images you’ll proudly display and revisit for years to come. Based in Kilwinning, Katie Murphy Photography offers flexible session options and works with families across Kilwinning, Irvine and the wider Ayrshire area. If you’re after natural, heart-led family portraits with a friendly photographer who cares about the little details — Katie is ready to capture your next chapter.
