Lavender Photoshoots in Cambridgeshire – A Magical Summer Experience for Your Family
Hi, I’m Laura. I’m a photographer based in St. Ives, Cambridgeshire and each summer I run Lavender Photoshoots for all returning and new clients. Can you imagine it? The scent of lavender in the air, golden sunlight warming your shoulders, and your little ones giggling as they run between rows of soft purple blooms. Read on to find out more about these gorgeous photoshoots and if they sound like your thing, you can find out how to book your lavender photoshoot later on in the blog.
Family Photoshoots Near Huntingdon
Life is full. Busy. Messy.
But out here in the lavender fields, time slows down. This isn’t just a quick photoshoot — it’s a moment to breathe, to connect, and to simply be with the ones you love most.
We’ll spend 20 minutes together capturing the smiles, cuddles, and gentle in-between moments that make your family beautifully unique. I’ll gently guide you into relaxed, flattering poses — nothing forced or awkward — so you leave with images that feel natural, warm, and full of heart.
The Calm of Lavender — Nature’s Little Gift
There’s something truly special about lavender — and it’s not just the colour.
Lavender is known for its calming, soothing properties, and spending time surrounded by it can help lower stress levels, calm anxious little ones, and encourage relaxation.
Whether your child is naturally full of energy or a little camera-shy, the peaceful atmosphere of the fields works its quiet magic. It helps everyone feel more at ease — which always shines through in the photos.
It’s not just a photoshoot — it’s a chance to pause and reconnect in a setting that encourages joy, calm, and closeness.
What’s Included in Your Lavender Photoshoot
Here’s what’s wrapped into your Lavender experience:

Styling Tips for That Dreamy Family Photo
To make the most of the setting, I’ll send you a full styling guide after booking — but here are a few tips:
Choose pastel tones like blush pink, cream, lavender, soft blue
Avoid logos, bold patterns or neon colours — they can distract in photos
Floaty dresses, rompers and soft cottons look timeless in the lavender
Barefoot children = always adorable!
Think soft, natural and a little bit whimsical — you want your outfits to match the peaceful, sunlit setting.
The Location: Cambridgeshire Lavender, Bluntisham
Just outside St Ives, this family-run lavender field is a real hidden gem. It’s easy to get to, with parking onsite and wide open rows perfect for little legs. The scent, the colour, the calm — it’s honestly one of my favourite spots to photograph each summer.
You’ll pay a small entry fee on the day to access the field (this goes directly to the farm) — and I promise, it’s worth every penny.
A Memory You’ll Want to Frame Forever
Lavender Mini Sessions aren’t just about the photos (though they’ll be stunning).
They’re about stepping away from the everyday. About soaking up a beautiful summer’s evening. About celebrating your family, just as you are, right now.
These limited-edition sessions only happen once a year and always book quickly — so if you’re even a little bit tempted, I encourage you to reserve your spot soon.

I can’t wait to welcome you to the fields.
