Family Photographer in Chichester

Chichester Family Photographer

Hi - I’m Irma, a family photographer based in Sussex, and I believe the best photos are the ones that tell your family story. No stiff poses, no forced smiles – just you and your loved ones, exactly as you are.

Capturing Family Life

Every family has its own rhythm, its own quirks, its own little moments of magic. Whether it’s the way your toddler grips your finger with their tiny hand, the belly laughs shared between siblings, or the quiet glances between parents – these are the moments I live to capture.

My approach is all about storytelling. I blend into your world, allowing you to relax and be yourselves, while I document the genuine connections that make your family unique. The result? Honest, emotive images that transport you right back to this season of your life.

I offer 2 types of family photoshoots:

  • Slice Of Life

    My Slice of Life photoshoot is all about capturing your family as you truly are – naturally, effortlessly, and full of life.

    No stiff poses, no forced smiles – just a relaxed and fun session where you can be yourselves. We’ll spend 1.5 to 2 hours at home or out and about in a place that feels right for you. Maybe it’s a walk on West Wittering beach, an adventure in the old town, or simply playing in Priory Park – whatever reflects your family best.

    My goal? To document your family moments with honesty and warmth, creating natural portraits you’ll treasure forever.

  • Morning In The Life

    This session is all about capturing your family’s real, unfiltered moments. No posing, no pressure - just a relaxed, documentary-style shoot that follows your ordinary Saturday or Sunday morning, exactly as it is.

    For 4 to 5 hours, I’ll be there as a photographer-friend, blending into your day - whether it’s breakfast at your favourite café, a walk through the Lanes, or a slow morning at home.

    The result? A beautiful, honest collection of images that truly reflect your family’s story.

Where We Can Shoot in Chichester

Chichester is full of stunning locations that provide the perfect backdrop for your family’s story. Whether we’re exploring the rolling hills of the South Downs, chasing the waves at West Wittering beach, or capturing the warmth of home life in your own space – I’ll help you choose a setting that reflects who you are as a family.

A Session Designed Around You

There’s no rush, no pressure. My sessions are relaxed and fun – giving you space to connect, play, and just be together. I guide you subtly when needed but mostly let things unfold naturally, capturing the beautiful in-between moments that might otherwise go unnoticed.

Let’s Create Something Meaningful

Family photography isn’t just about having beautiful pictures – it’s about preserving this chapter of your lives so that, years from now, you can look back and feel every emotion all over again.

If that sounds like what you’re looking for, I’d love to chat. Get in touch, and let’s create something special together.
