Ness Woods Summer Evening Mini Sessions
Friday 12th June

We’re excited to announce an evening of family portrait mini sessions on Friday 12th of June in the beautiful Ness Woods. Located just 15 minutes outside L’Derry just off the A6 this really is a hidden gem of a place.

An ancient oak woodland, with well established paths which lead to the (sometimes) dramatic waterfall and an amazing play-park make it a fabulous place for families and kids to stretch their legs and relax. If you haven’t been before it

Our family sessions take the form of a short walk as we explore the outskirts for the forest, so don’t be worrying about having to put your hiking boots on. We keep everything close at hand, so even little feet will be fine.

You’ll quickly find out our family sessions are fun and chilled out, with lots of movement and play. Most of our clients come away saying how easy it was and how much they enjoyed their session so you’ll be in safe hands with us even if you’re nervous about having your photo taken.

Session length: 20 minutes
Price: £40
Each session includes 4 hand edited, high resolution digital images to download and keep with the option of purchasing the full gallery (approximately 20+ images) for an additional £40.
Sessions will run from 7pm till 9pm.

Our family shoots are easier than you’d ever imagine!
No stiff smiles or awkward poses, just you and your people being yourselves…just in a beautiful location and being guided along in a way that makes it feel like a mini adventure rather than an ordeal.
We pride ourselves on having clients come away telling us how easy they found it, and how much fun the kids had and we try to bring that vibe to all our shoots.
If you’d love a fun, relaxed family session that your whole family will love we’d love to see you in front of our cameras.
Our mini sessions are only £40, and with sessions coming up at Downhill Beach, the Ness Woods, and Gortin Glens Forest Park we have plenty of options for you over the summer months.

We have a fabulous new location for our family mini sessions over the spring and summer months…the Ness Woods just off the A6 outside L’Derry.

Our family sessions are always relaxed, and fun with the kids leading the way to help them be themselves and bring out their personalities.

As a dad to two kids under 6 I know how fleeting these days are and how quickly they grow up. So this is your chance to get those family photos you’ve been talking about having done for longer than you care to admit.

We’ll guide you through the whole time using gentle prompts and play rather than stiff and forced poses. Everyone we photograph comes away saying how easy it felt, so if you’re at all uncomfortable in front of the camera we’ve got your back.

As a location the ancient woodland of the Ness and Ervey Woods is one of the hidden gems in the area and if you haven’t been it’s worth the trip for any reason. We think our family sessions are the best!

Our mini sessions are only £40 for each 20 minute shoot which we think is insanely good value.

The first date we have available is the 24th of May and we’d love to see you guys there!

Some summer evenings are a but special aren’t they!
Imagine the scene…the kids are at that great age where they’re and handful but great craic, you’re on the beach, it’s approaching sunset.
These are the sort of moments you thought having kids would be like, the sort photos you’ve seen on social media but thought that’s what other people do. But life gets in the way sometimes and you never get to the beach at sunset.
We make this situation a possibility and we love meeting families on the beach in the evenings to give you the sort of photos you thought only existed on Instagram.
Our style is relaxed, and fun. We let the kids have all the freedom they need to bring out their personalities, and let them shine.
Our beach mini sessions are on £40 for each 20 minute session, and we think they’re amazing value.

🌿 NESS WOODS FAMILY MINI SESSIONS 🌿

This spring, we’re heading back to the woods for a series of relaxed, joy-filled family mini sessions — and you’re invited.

Think fresh green leaves, soft golden light, kids free to explore, and plenty of space to just be yourselves. No stiff poses, no pressure — just natural moments, real laughs, and the kind of memories you’ll actually want to frame.

We’re parents to two kids under 6 so we’ve opened both morning and evening sessions to help you fit them in to your busy lives.

These sessions are perfect for little ones who don’t sit still
. They’re quick and stress-free (because life is busy). And with a beautiful woodland backdrop it really is spring at it’s best.

Location: Ness Woods

Limited spaces available.

Current availability is on:
Saturday 2nd May
Sunday 24th May

If you’ve been meaning to update your family photos without the fuss, this is your sign.
