Yolanda Kingdon is a Barry-based family specialist creating light & airy, documentary-style family, newborn and children portraits. Relaxed studio and on-location sessions across South Wales.
As a family photography specialist based in Barry, Yolanda Kingdon offers more than pictures — she creates heirloom images that capture the real heartbeat of your family. With over twenty years behind the camera, Yolanda’s work is rooted in a light & airy aesthetic and a documentary-style approach that favours genuine emotion over stiff posing. Whether you’re celebrating a newborn, marking a child’s milestone or arranging a multi‑generational portrait, she treats each session as a personal story to be told. Why choose Yolanda? Her experience with families — and as a parent herself — means she understands how to work with babies, toddlers and grandparents with patience and ease. Sessions are relaxed and client-focused: Yolanda blends unobtrusive, candid moments with gentle guidance so everyone looks and feels their best. The result is natural, timeless images you’ll proudly display in your home and pass down through generations. Her studio in Rhoose (serving Barry, the Vale of Glamorgan and greater South Wales) is designed as a calm, welcoming space where families can relax. It features professional lighting, neutral backdrops and thoughtful touches that create flattering, consistent results. If you prefer the outdoors, Yolanda also photographs families on location — from beaches and parks to the neighbourhood spots that mean the most to you. Working with Yolanda is collaborative from the first message to the final gallery. She listens to your vision, offers wardrobe and styling suggestions, and ensures the session unfolds at a comfortable pace for children and adults alike. Safety, cleanliness and a child‑centred approach are priorities when photographing newborns and little ones, so parents can trust that their babies are handled with care. Beyond technique, Yolanda’s photography is driven by a love for capturing life’s ordinary magic — the small, unrepeatable moments that, when frozen in an image, become treasured memories. If you’re looking for a family photographer in Barry who combines technical skill, warmth and a light, modern style, Yolanda provides a personable, professional experience that celebrates your family exactly as it is. Reach out to discuss a family portrait, newborn session, children’s shoot, or a special occasion — and create images you’ll cherish for a lifetime.
