Hello, Iā€™m Claire, a family and baby portrait photographer, based in Sevenoaks.

Portait of photographer Claire Lacey, sitting at home wearing a white silk shirt whilst holding and leaning against her camera

Living in west Kent, just outside OF London. I love to capture your familyā€™s personality. What you love to do most together - to give you the sentimental memories that you deserve and will treasure forever.

Every family is different, thatā€™s why Iā€™ll work with you to create a personalised shoot tailored to your needs and where you are most comfortable. Iā€™m a strong believer that no matter how camera shy you may be - myself included - it is important to appear in the pictures with your family.

Iā€™m so glad you found me and I hope youā€™ll find Iā€™m the photographer for you.

Kind Words & Love Letters

  • A blonde haired, pregnant women standing in a wildflower meadow, wearing a white dress, with a blanket cradled over shoulders. She is looking over her shoulder towards the horizon and sunset, whilst cradling her unborn baby.

    ā€œClaire captured such precious moments of my pregnancy that I will cherish forever. From start to finish Claire was so welcoming and made sure I felt comfortable every step of the way. I was made to feel confident before I even attended the photoshoot with calls and emails prior to discuss all details and settle any nerves. When it came to the session, Claire made sure it was fun and I wasn't even aware that there was a camera. Instead I was in the most beautiful flower meadow, bonding with my bump and laughing - an evening I shall never forget.ā€

    Maternity Photography Session

  • Image of two twin boys lying on a bed looking up towards the ceiling and camera.

    "We did a photoshoot with Claire to capture our 12-week-old twins and weā€™re SO glad we did. She has such a talent for making people feel at ease, has the most incredible use of light, and captures all the little moments and details you want to remember forever. The resulting photos surpassed all my expectations; theyā€™re just beautiful and something I know weā€™ll treasure forever. Claire is also an absolute gem of a human - warm, friendly, organised, calm and extremely patient (she was unfazed by shooting two fussy babies and our rather spirited little Dachshund). I wouldnā€™t hesitate to recommend Claire!"

    Newborn Photography session

  • Two blonde haired sisters sitting on a rug in sunset, snuggled up together. The older sister is sitting behind her toddler little sister, with her arms wrapped around her waist leaning on her sisters back, with her sister looking towards her mum.

    ā€œClaire took photos of me and my family in a muddy field that means a lot to us as a family and made it look magical - way beyond my expectations. She has a really warm manner that put me and the little ones at ease and got the best out of us on camera. She knows all the tricks for working with children and is super patient. I treasure my photos, she captured us beautifully.ā€
