FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY STROUD

“Precisely by slicing out this moment and freezing it, all photographs testify to time’s relentless melt.” Susan Sontag

Delighted!

If you are looking for photos as cool as the photographer, Catherine Harder Photography is where to go. Catherine blends into the day with kindness and humour, and captures everything. Our family with four sons cannot have been easy to work with, particularly since Catherine followed our day in central London but we are DELIGHTED with the photos! Thank you Catherine.

YOUR FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY SHOOT

I’m a Stroud based family photographer, with a passion for capturing families interacting, just being in the world together!

I love getting Mums and Dads in pictures and showing daily life. Relaxed family photography captures your life stories so that your family can experience some serious nostalgia in years to come.

Shoots start at 2 hours in length, so that we can plan plenty of activities to amuse the kids and create interesting pictures. No need to prepare or worry about kiddie boredom. Choose only those activities your family loves.

Enjoy a fun filled, action packed session of hanging out with your family. You’ll receive a private gallery of images to view before deciding on a package of digital images.

Your gallery will have a store for prints, frames & Photobooks. The packages you can choose from are shown below.

THRILLED

Our family had a wonderful day with Catherine. With two young boys running around and camara shy parents we were all put skillfully at ease and were immediately relaxed and comfortable. We had shots at home and outside in the surrounding countryside. We were thrilled with the results.. beautiful photographs, so cleverly taken capturing real family moments full of personality and showcasing the gorgeous countryside. Entirely original, thoughtfully composed, beautifully presented. I can’t recommend Catherine Harder Photography enough !!

Let’s get everyone in the picture!

Struggling to find any pictures with the family photographer in the frame?

Our children are small for the shortest time. We all know how valuable family photographs will be to our future selves so we click click click.

But – the family photographer is never in the picture. We can’t capture ourselves interacting with our kids – unless we use a tripod, but who’s managing to do that? Enter your friendly family photographer!
