Mama and Me” Photography Sessions in the Heart of Kent

A Golden Hour Session in Downswood

As the days grow shorter and the skies turn darker, I can’t help but remenis over last autumn’s stunning outdoor mummy and me photography session.
Set in the beautiful farmer’s fields of Downswood, Maidstone, Kent, this heartwarming shoot perfectly captured the love and bond between mother and her child.

If you’re considering an outdoor family photo shoot in Kent or looking for a mummy and me photoshoot near Maidstone, this session is a beautiful example of how a simple, natural setting can create unforgettable portraits.

Last October, I had the pleasure of working with this gorgeous duo—Kay and her daughter, Rae.
The stunning golden hour light in the fields made for the perfect backdrop, creating an almost magical glow around them. Both Kay and Rae wore dresses from my client wardrobe, making this session not only memorable but also stress-free for mama Kay, who didn’t need to worry about finding new outfits for the occasion!

There’s something so special about outdoor family photography. When you’re in a natural setting like a field, the entire family feels more relaxed, and the photographs end up looking authentic and full of life. In this case, I wanted to capture the simple joy of spending time together, surrounded by the beauty of nature. The gentle breeze, golden fields, and the late afternoon sun perfectly complemented the warm bond they shared.

Here is what Kayleigh wrote after her session: “Our shoot with Lori was amazing! She’s fantastic at what she does and is fab with the kids. She puts you at ease and that’s how she gets the ‘in-the-moment’ money shots. Her style of photography looks gorgeous on the wall and she’s always close by if you have any questions or queries! Can’t recommend her enough!”

This session is a perfect example of the magic that can happen when you take the time to create meaningful memories with your children in an outdoor location that’s close to home. If you’re interested in an outdoor family session in Kent, especially one focusing on the beautiful relationship between mother and child, there’s no better time than now!
