My photography services

Wedding photography

I’ve been working as a wedding photographer throughout the south east since 2005 and have had the pleasure of photographing ceremonies, services and celebrations of all descriptions, including:

church weddings
civil ceremonies
blessings
interfaith weddings
civil partnerships
renewal of vows

If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who puts tremendous effort into capturing all those unique moments, both big and small, then get in touch. You can read more about my wedding photography here or call 07717 740 072 for a no-obligation chat about bespoke wedding photography packages.

Maternity photography

Having photographs taken before the arrival of your little one is your chance to capture the love you feel for your unborn child… before life becomes too busy. The excitement and anticipation is evident at this precious time and mums-to-be look especially beautiful, so it’s a great opportunity to organise professional images as a reminder.

To me, maternity photography is so much more than ‘bump photography’ – it’s a time to focus on you and your blossoming family. In short, it’s a unique time in your life, and what better way to remember it than with beautiful images to treasure?

Find out more about maternity photography here or give me a call on 07717 740 072 for an informal chat.

Newborn and baby photography

Newborn photography is a passion of mine. Childbirth is such an amazing achievement and those early days of your baby’s life are full of wonder and beauty, so it makes perfect sense to celebrate with beautiful images that capture it all.

The precious days of very early childhood whizz by and disappear in the blink of an eye – I know that because I’m a mum myself (in fact, taking photos of my own children is what inspired me to start a career as a photographer). So, don’t miss the opportunity to commit the gorgeousness of your tiny baby to memory with a newborn photo shoot that’s tailored to your personal tastes and your little one’s needs.

I’m happy to work from either my fully equipped, warm, comfortable Orpington studio or your home – and I understand that tiny babies have their own schedules, so I’m flexible, understanding and caring.

Take a look at my newborn photography and baby photography here or give me a call to chat about the type of images you’d like to achieve.

Family photography

Family photo sessions make the perfect gift. I’ve worked with all kinds of family groups in a huge range of venues and settings to create relaxed, charming photos that everyone loves. And the results speak for themselves – browse some examples of my family photo shoots here.

Some couples like to document the magical time of pregnancy and start capturing those family memories early on with a maternity portrait photography session. These are increasingly popular and work really well, whether both parents take part or just the mum-to-be.

So whether you’re looking for a relaxed, outdoorsy family photography session – such as a woodland setting in spring with a blanket of bluebells as a backdrop – or a more formal photo shoot, I’m full of ideas to help you achieve the portrait you want, so do get in touch to discuss what would work for you.

Special occasion photography

Looking forward to an engagement party, retirement do, wedding anniversary or other big family event? Book me to capture all those special moments for you while you enjoy the celebrations and make memories with your loved ones, relaxed in the knowledge that you’ll have wonderful images to mark the occasion.

Take a look at a small sample of my special occasion photography here and don’t hesitate to get in touch if you’d like to see more examples, or discuss details of your event.

Corporate photography

I provide photography services for companies and organisations right across London and the south east for all kind of purposes, including corporate headshots, team portraits, product images and operational shots, commonly used for:

websites
brochures
special events
social media
menus, posters, flyers
product shots

Much of my work involves commercial photography for website designers who create content for businesses in London and the south east. You can read more and view some examples of my work here

Do get in touch to discuss how we could work together by dropping me an email at harriet@buckinghamphotography.co.uk

Pet photography

I don’t just take photographs of human family members – I’ve also got a portfolio of pet photography, too – because loved ones come in all shapes, sizes and species. I’m a big animal lover and am regularly commissioned to work as a pet photographer as well as creating wonderfully engaging images from my studio in Orpington.

So, if you’d like to capture the beauty and personality of a four-legged friend (or any kind of animal buddy) then take a look at my pet photography page here or get in touch to chat about how we can make this happen for you.

Event photography

Do you have an event planned and need a commercial photographer to take the very best shots to reflect the occasion perfectly while blending in discreetly and not hindering proceedings? Event photography is something of a unique art form, and you need a confident, experienced and professional photographer, who is able to manage large groups of people, in order to get the very best images.

As a former event manager I understand your needs and have a wealth of experience of working as a business photographer at events all over the country. Awards dinners, business conferences, product launches… you name it, I’ve captured it.

Read more about my event photography here or call me on 07717 740 072 to discuss your event.

I would love the chance to chat with you about your photography needs, so please give me a ring on 07717 740 072 or email harriet@buckinghamphotography.co.uk

I am based in Orpington, Kent but welcome enquiries from all over the south east.
