Like you I often wonder where on earth the time has gone. My nieces and nephew are all busy growing up and all of a sudden they’re teenagers. I do have plenty of photographs but it never seems enough. You know that feeling, no one should ever have to look back and wish they’d taken more photographs.
Fortunately I have photographs of my Mum who passed away last year with Dementia. I do wish I had more though! I have my favourite on display in the studio, these memories are so valuable aren’t they?
There’s no need for you to look back with regret. Instead you can enjoy those moments over and over again. Those special milestones, those incredible family memories, that photoshoot that had you all laughing together.
At Sally Parkinson Photography we create a laughter filled photoshoot telling the story of your family so that you can re-live, re-tell and remember forever.
Clearing out my Mum’s house after she moved to a care home (with Dementia) I found photographs of us together. They stopped me in my tracks. They made me cry. They help me to remember the way she was, forever. My favourite is now framed and in the studio so I can look at her every day.
So what have I learned from this? Memories make me smile! I don’t want you to have to feel like this, nobody should regret not having these memories to make them smile.
I’m a qualified member of the Master Photographer’s Association which means I can give you the best results from your photoshoot. I receive regular training and my images are critiqued which keeps me on my toes!
Being in business for 16 years means that I have cuddled countless babies, chased cheeky toddlers and had fun with numerous families. Here’s to the next 16!
Telling me about your family, what your family loves to do together and your hobbies is the first step to creating your unique story that you can enjoy forever. Gather up your props and look forward to your fun photo session together. You'll love watching your children as they relax and let their personalities fly. No fake smiles here!
Then you can look forward to your personalised reveal session, the moment when you see your photo shoot in pictures which is just as exciting as your photoshoot. Enjoy the beautiful slideshow of your images, it will make you smile as you remember the session and you might even shed a little tear too.

I felt so happy watching Eliza play with my Grandmother's jewellery box. I had to hold back the tears! Lydia
The thing I noticed when I saw my images for the first time was all the little touches and attention to detail. I’m so happy with the result, I wish I’d done it sooner! Sarah
Oh my goodness, my daughter loved the natural cake and we had so much fun watching her dive in! Thank you for the amazing memories. Hannah
Every photoshoot is different, every family has their own story to tell which makes their collection of photographs so unique.
My studio is a gorgeous log cabin in my garden in Braintree, Essex. It is a custom design, built in May 2018, complete with underfloor heating and air-conditioning which means that it's perfect for photoshoots all year round.. The fact that it's in my garden means that I can offer outdoor shoots in the Summer too, and it's perfectly safe for little ones if they fancy a run around on the grass! It's not unusual for the cats to be wandering around although, much to their disgust, they're not allowed in the studio unless they book a photo session!
When the weather is warmer I am able to offer photo sessions in the garden under a gazebo. This gives a very natural look to the photography and being outside enjoying a warm breeze is incredibly relaxing! Whether we're in the studio or the garden (or both!) you can switch off from the outside world and enjoy the fun of the shoot together. There's no rush, no clock watching...just you and your family making special memories.
Pick out your favourite fun things and bring them in! That’s what makes your photoshoot all about you and your family. What will you choose?
A photoshoot full of laughter, happiness and joy leads to fantastic natural smiles from everyone.
Jump into the box and you’ll forget the camera is there! You’ll be too busy enjoying yourselves, having fun with your family.
