YOUR PHOTOSHOOT

EXPERIENCE

At Katie Watson Photography, I believe that family photography should feel relaxed, personal, and beautifully simple. From maternity to newborn and family sessions, my focus is on creating baby led, enjoyable experience that captures genuine emotion and connection, so you can be fully present while I take care of the rest.

Whether you’re stepping into my peaceful Warwickshire Studio or meeting me outdoors for a location shoot, every detail is thoughtfully designed to help you feel at ease and leave with timeless images you’ll treasure forever.

It’s not just about beautiful photographs…. it’s about the experience. Calm, natural, and personal, every step of the way

“Calm”

How clients most frequently describe their experience.

LOVELY TO MEET YOU

I’m Katie, a mum, photographer, and storyteller for families who want to remember the beautiful, sometimes chaotic, and always heart-full parts of life.

Becoming a mum changed everything for me. It’s when I found my niche in family photography, realising just how quickly time moves, how fast those tiny details fade, and how precious it is to hold onto them. That’s what I love creating for other families.

My little girl is now two and brings daily joy, chaos, and sass to our home, so believe me, I get toddlers. I know children aren’t always in the mood to smile on cue, and that’s perfectly fine.

I also understand that choosing a photographer isn’t just about beautiful images; it’s about trust. For your peace of mind, I’m DBS checked, insured, and trained in Baby and Child First Aid, so you can relax.

Let’s capture your family’s story — your legacy — together.

THE STUDIO

Nestled in the heart of Kenilworth, Warwickshire, my home studio is a calm, welcoming space designed with families and new parents in mind.

Soft natural light, cosy textures, and neutral tones create the perfect backdrop for timeless, natural photographs.

You’ll find everything you need, space to feed or change your baby, light refreshments, and a quiet, relaxed environment that feels more like home than a studio.
