Couple Photoshoot

A couple photoshoot is a relaxed, mostly outdoor session for two people, photographed by a professional who guides you into natural moments rather than stiff poses. It's for partners who want good photographs of themselves together: for an anniversary, a trip to England, a new home, or simply because the last good photo of you both was years ago.

Sessions start from £250 for 45–60 minutes in one city or destination location, with professionally edited digital images delivered in a private online gallery. Popular settings include London, Bath, Oxford, Brighton, York, the Cotswolds and the Lake District.

Couples of any age and at any stage: celebrating an anniversary, visiting England for a few days, marking a move or a milestone, or wanting photographs that aren't selfies. It suits people who feel awkward in front of a camera, because most of the session is walking, talking and reacting to each other while your photographer directs lightly.

If you're engaged, an engagement session is a longer version built around your story. For ideas on where to go, see couple photoshoot locations in England or our couple photoshoot page.

Choose outfits that go together without matching exactly: two or three colours that sit well side by side, with textures and layers rather than big logos. Comfortable shoes matter, because you'll be walking.

Early morning and the hour before sunset give the softest light and the fewest people in busy places. Check the forecast a few days ahead and agree a wet-weather plan with your photographer. Tell them anything that would help, such as a favourite spot, something you'd rather avoid, or if one of you is camera-shy. Our guide on what to wear for a couple photoshoot has more detail.
