Family, Newborn & Maternity Photographer in London
Your family, beautifully seen.
Pennypics creates family portraits in London — from maternity and newborn days to babies, growing children and family life as it changes. Photographs in which you look your best and still feel like yourselves.
Your family photoshoot is led personally by Paola Perni. Drawing on more than 15 years of experience in portrait photography and professional retouching, she gives clear direction when it helps, while leaving room for personality, movement and spontaneous moments.
Photo sessions are available at home or outdoors across Greater London, with particular focus on South West, Central and West London, and in the Kennington studio.

London Vacation Photography
Personal London vacation portraits for families, couples and travellers visiting the city — shaped around your stay, the places you came to see, and the moments you want to remember.
Depending on where you are staying, a session might begin around Westminster and St James’s, follow the river from the South Bank towards St Paul’s, or use quieter streets and garden squares in Chelsea or Kensington.
Return home with photographs that feel elegant, personal and true to your time in London.
