I wonder if you’ve stopped lately,

to notice

how beautiful

your REAL life is?

Life with small kids is hard. And all the harder with a brand new baby… 

It’s easy to dash about in a whirlwind of chaos, and never stop to appreciate the beauty of the ordinary, the NOW.

To miss all those moments that you will miss, when they are gone! 

I just shine a light on that ordinary beauty.

It won’t be like this forever.

And you’ll be glad that you had the wisdom to have it captured…

You were so great that day! You just melted into our family and fitted right in. And at the end, we just had great natural shots!

Thank you so much!

Not in love with those contrived studio shoots? And don’t fancy cavorting round a field in matchy matchy clothes either?  I just might be your girl!

At home is where your kids are most relaxed. You all just have to be yourselves.

It’s a great option for anyone who is Neurodiverse and may not be comfortable in new environments (or uncomfortable clothing!) 

And if you’ve just given birth, then at home is not only the least stressful option, it’s also where your fuzzy sleep-deprived memories live…

 

I’m a family photographer based near High Wycombe, and I love to capture those beautiful fleeting moments in everyday life!

Sounds Good?

I’d love to hear from you! Let’s have a quick no obligation chat over a cuppa!

So Who Is Lightsmith Photography?

I’m Yvonne Phillips, and I’m a very easy going, non-judgemental sort, always ready with a smile.  I’m originally from Ireland, but I’ve been living in the UK for half my life now. I have two lovely boys and I live just outside High Wycombe.

…for people who like to keep it real

I photograph your family just as you are, capturing all the cuddles, interactions and gestures that you’ll want to remember.

But I’ll give it a little nudge in the right direction to make it look its best.

So while I might suggest the best place for you all to hang out for the prettiest picture, the  moments themselves unfold naturally. 

The longer I stay with you, the more time I have to capture truly real moments without any help.  

It’s not posed, and it’s not strictly documentary either. 

A nice sweet spot somewhere in the middle! 

I capture Life!

I’m naturally curious and I love nothing better than to sit and people watch, and to find out about peoples’ life stories. For me, candid family photography is all about turning peoples’ stories into art. Every family has something that makes them unique.
