WhO IS IT FOR?
Families big or small, at any stage of their journey
At Love Bonds Studio, I specialise in newborn, maternity, and family photography—capturing the moments that matter most, wherever you are in your journey.
For a limited time, I’m offering a small number of families a complimentary photo session of their choice. Whether you’d love to document your maternity, just welcomed your newborn, celebrate a baby milestone, update your family portraits, or capture a meaningful occasion—like a birthday, graduation, or a cultural or religious tradition—this experience is for you!
There’s truly no right or wrong time to capture your family and you don't need tho have a major milestone to celebrate. Your love, and beautiful connections deserve to be preserved on any day, so you can enjoy them in years to come.
So this is your sign - to grab this wonderful opportunity and contact me above!
WHAT'S INCLUDED?
MY GIFT TO YOU
If we agree on a complimentary photo session for your family, you won’t need to pay my usual session fee (£100–£200).
You’ll also receive 3 professionally edited, high-resolution images of your choice (usually worth £75), you can select from your private online gallery, which will be ready to view within 7–14 days after your session.
There is absolutely no obligation or pressure to purchase anything extra, and there are no additional hidden fees. However, if you fall in love with more images, you’ll have the option to purchase additional photographs at a special, discounted rate created just for these sessions.
Although this experience is free, you can be sure to receive the same care and attention I pour into all my clients. I’ll be there to support you every step of the way—from planning your session and providing styling guidance (including access to my client wardrobe), to sharing helpful preparation tips ahead of your shoot.
Our session will be relaxed while I’ll gently guide and take care of you — whether that means soothing your baby, entertaining your toddler, or simply helping you feel at ease— so you can focus on what matters most: your connection and love as a family.
If you wish, you’ll also have the option to purchase beautiful prints, albums, or wall art after your session. I work with trusted professional print labs to offer high-quality products to suit a range of styles and budgets.
DATES & LOCATION
LIMITED SPOTS AVAILABLE
My studio is based in Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire, and sessions are usually scheduled on weekends at a time that works for you. Other times may be available, depending on my schedule.
Sessions typically last 1–1.5 hours, depending on the size of your family and the type of shoot.
For newborns or families with babies under 2 months, I’m also happy to travel to your home (within 15 miles, free of charge). These sessions are fully baby-led and usually last 2–3 hours to allow time for feeds, rest, and cuddles.
I currently have 2–4 free sessions available until June 2026, with potential other opportunities throughout the year for seasonal shoots or creative projects.
The best way to secure your spot is to register your interest above and also join my email list to be the first to hear about any upcoming opportunities.
WHERE'S THE CATCH?
WHY WOULD PHOTOGRAPHER OFFER SESSIONS FOR FREE?
I get it—free just sounds too good to be true!
The truth is, these sessions are mostly for me to try new creative ideas, showcase thematic or seasonal projects (e.g. Christmas mini-shoots), and add variety to my portfolio.
I also very much love the idea of gifting a special experience to selected families who might not always be able to invest into a professional photo shoot at the moment.
This is a completely risk-free opportunity for you—there truly are no hidden fees or agendas. My goal with these sessions isn’t monetary, but to capture meaningful moments while trying new ideas and building connections with local families.
Due to the nature of these sessions, you would need to be comfortable form me to share a few of the photos on my website, social media, or my promotional materials. Don’t worry— your family’s identity will never be disclosed without your permission.
If you have any more questions, I’m more than happy to answer them! Registering your interest above is not binding, and I’d love to hear from you! 🤍
Testimonials
We booked Mari-Liis for both a newborn and family shoot, and she exceeded all our expectations.
She was incredibly professional and so wonderful with the kids, making everyone feel relaxed and natural in front of the camera.
When we saw the final gallery, we were blown away! She captured our family’s connection so beautifully.
I can’t recommend her highly enough!
GuRPREET
I had the most amazing experience with Love Bonds Studio!
From start to finish, everything was so well organised — booking was seamless and communication throughout was clear and easy.
The photographer was absolutely fantastic with my girls! She made them feel comfortable straight away and somehow managed to capture their personalities perfectly in every shot. It didn’t feel forced at all — we genuinely had such a fun, relaxed time together.
I’m beyond happy with the results and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a family shoot. Such a special experience and memories we’ll treasure forever!
SUHAILA
I had a photoshoot for the first time with Mari-Liis.
She is extremely kind, makes your whole experience feel so personal, however still keeping the whole experience very professional.
Our photos turned out amazing, which I didn't expect as my toddler just wanted to play and run around!
Thank you for giving me and Olivia such an amazing experience and see you again soon!
