Hi, I am Strahila - a family photographer with 10 years of experience in capturing the moments that truly matter in life - expecting your new baby, celebrating their arrival or simply playing with the kids in the park on a Sunday afternoon.

I take a gentle, relaxed approach and will help you feel at ease in front of the camera. I’ll guide you through the session naturally, without any stiff or uncomfortable posing.

I am based in Caterham and work across South London and Surrey, but I am always happy to travel to your favourite outdoors spots or bring my camera to the comfort of your home.

If this sounds like what you are looking for, drop me a line - I would love to have a chat!

The Strahila photography story

Whether we choose a beautiful outdoor location or the comfort of your own home, I capture genuine, unposed moments—from the quiet anticipation of your bump, to those precious first days with your newborn, and the joyful energy of your growing family. For newborn sessions, I can bring carefully selected props and outfits, and I’ll guide you before and during the shoot with gentle direction to help you move naturally and interact comfortably, so you can simply relax, knowing you’re in safe hands.

I offer relaxed, natural photography that fits around you. 

Your family's story, naturally told - in photos that feel like YOU


captured in film...

Your family's story

Film adds a depth to family memories that photographs alone can’t always capture. The movement, the sounds, the way a moment unfolds — these details bring your memories back to life. 



Alongside still images, family films allow you to remember not just how this season looked, but how it felt. I offer newborn, maternity and family photography and film across Surrey and London, capturing real moments in a natural, unobtrusive way that stands the test of time.
