A little about me

Sally Sargent

I am a professional lifestyle photographer based in Somerset with a particular specialism in family and children’s photography. I set up my business in 2011 when I brought together my love of children and my passion for photography and finally realised that I had found the career for me!

I am a mother of three and have a natural affinity for children, as well as the patience and understanding needed to capture their unique characters. I photograph with minimal direction, playing games and having fun so I can focus on those natural expressions which capture a child’s personality.

A creative eye and a relaxed approach ensure a set of images that are unique to you and which can be passed down through generations of your family.

“Just wanted to say thank you for making today so brilliant. We have met so many photographers in the past who are bossy and put the pressure on, trying to force the perfect pose. You were a breath of fresh air and exactly how your website describes, and exactly what we were after”.

I aim to produce beautiful and lasting portraits which reflect a person’s true character and capture the magic of natural light. Although I edit the images carefully, I avoid over manipulation or special effects which I feel can date quickly and detract from the picture’s quality.
I work throughout Somerset and surrounding areas, including Bristol and Bath, and I am willing to travel further on request.
