Where to have your family photoshoot around Lytham, Lancashire
Choosing the right setting for your family photos is just as important as choosing the right photographer. The backdrop tells part of your story—whether it’s sandy toes on the beach, running through wild meadows, exploring hidden woodland, or simply enjoying the comfort of your own home.
As a family photographer in Lytham, Lancashire, I specialise in natural family photography and storytelling photography capturing the real, natural moments that reflect your family’s personality.
Here are some of the most beautiful and meaningful locations for your next family photoshoot in and around Lytham.
The beach
Lytham is blessed with stunning coastal views. A beach photoshoot gives your family space to run, play, and simply be yourselves. Children love splashing in the waves, collecting sea shells and that sense of freedom always shines through in the photos. Golden sunsets over the Lancashire coast create a soft, magical light that adds a timeless feel to your images.
The woodland
Woodland areas around Lytham are perfect if you’re dreaming of an adventurous yet intimate backdrop. Lytham Hall is a local favourite, with beautiful tree-lined paths, open green spaces, and elegant historic charm. If you’d like something a little wilder, Beacon Fell in Lancashire offers sweeping woodland trails, mossy pathways, and panoramic views that make it feel like a true outdoor adventure. Both locations are wonderful for families who love exploring together, giving children plenty of space to climb, wander, and discover—while I capture authentic, joy-filled moments.
In home
Sometimes the best place for your family photoshoot is right at home. In-home photography allows me to capture your family in your most comfortable space, this is where you raise your children and memories are made. Whether it’s reading together on the sofa, baking in the kitchen, or playing in the garden, these sessions create a true documentary-style story of your life right now. They are also perfect for when the weather isn't favourable, we do live in England after all!
The meadow
In the warmer months, Lancashire meadows burst into life with tall grasses and wildflowers. A meadow setting is perfect if you’re dreaming of relaxed, natural family photography filled with colour and movement. It’s an ideal backdrop for storytelling images—barefoot adventures, picking flowers, and soaking in the beauty of nature.
Which location is right for you?
There’s no single “perfect” location—it depends on your family’s personality and the story you want to tell. The Lancashire coast, meadows, woodlands, and in-home sessions all offer something unique. No matter the setting, my focus is always on creating storytelling photography that captures the love, connection, and little details that make your family special.
During our pre-session consultation we will have a chat about location, styling and so much more. Don't worry if you're unsure, I'm here to guide you throughout the process so you can have a stress free experience and focus on what really matters, making memories with your family.
