Specialist family photographer in Kirkintilloch. Beth Hodge creates relaxed studio, home and outdoor family portraits—newborns, children and milestone sessions with a friendly approach.
Beth Hodge is a specialist family photographer based in Kirkintilloch, serving Glasgow and the surrounding area from The Courtyard Studio. With more than two decades in photography, Beth has honed a warm, relaxed approach that puts families at ease and produces natural, expressive portraits you’ll be proud to display. Why choose Beth for your family photoshoot? Her studio is intentionally family friendly — a contemporary, comfortable space where babies, toddlers and grandparents all feel welcome. Beth’s experience with newborns and children gives her a calm, patient manner that transforms what can be a stressful occasion into an enjoyable family experience. She understands the small practicalities that matter (light refreshments, outfit changes, a calm pace) and uses gentle direction to capture authentic smiles, playful moments and those quiet, intimate connections. Style and approach: Beth favours a lifestyle-led, natural style that balances candid moments with beautiful family portraits. Whether you want a relaxed in-studio session, a cosy home shoot to capture life as it is, or a seasonal outdoor session among local parks and countryside, Beth adapts to your family’s personality and the milestone you’re celebrating — newborns, baby portraits, children’s shoots, baptisms, communions and birthdays. How Beth works with you: Every session begins with a friendly pre-shoot chat to understand what matters most to your family. On the day, Beth creates a calm, fun atmosphere to help even camera-shy children relax; she’ll guide poses subtly and capture those unexpected moments that tell your family’s story. After the shoot you’ll enjoy a private viewing to choose keepsakes — from framed prints and bespoke canvases to personalised gift options and discreet digital enhancement if desired. Local, trusted and creative: Located close to Glasgow city centre, Beth Hodge Photography is known for professional service, creative composition and heartfelt images. If you want a family photographer who specialises in making families comfortable and delivering timeless, natural portraits in Kirkintilloch and beyond, Beth offers the experience and personal touch to preserve your family memories.
