Family portraits

A bespoke text reflecting an established family

As every owner of an incomplete photograph album knows, capturing a whole family at a particular moment in time isn’t easy. I can help: with a family oriented Portrait in Prose, written with your words, embodying who you are and reconnecting you with what matters most. Consider it an ideal match for any professional shoot family photographs. LGBTQ+ inclusive.

I might ask about the joys, challenges and idiosyncrasies of family life, but adapt my questions to suit your situation e.g. a newly blended family.

We may involve only your immediate family members as sources for our text or ask wider family and/or close friends to contribute words as well.

You can hear through 500+ testimonials how much this truly bespoke approach has meant to so many other clients, often as much as the finished text itself.

‘You have a way of making space to find all the love that lies just below the surface. The way you connected with our kids was so skilful, helping them find the words to describe family life. We’re forever grateful.’
Clare + Dave

Our text might have a narrative thread that mirrors how your family has evolved over the years, intersected with particular stories told from different perspectives.

Imagine sharing your family’s portrait, a photo book text combined with photographs or framed on the kitchen wall for all to see, reaffirming your bond in the process.

Whether it reassures, makes you laugh or prompts reflection, the final edit will be a treasure trove you can all return to, time and again.

This family focused Portrait in Prose could appeal to families of all shapes and sizes e.g. single/step/adoptive parents, with children of any age or stage.
