Annie Griggs Photography Portrait & Family Photographer, St Albans
I pride myself in delivering perfect, timeless photos that will be cherished for years to come. Covering a wide range of photoshoot genres, you can be sure your photos will be amazing. My maternity photography sessions are a relaxed session in my cosy studio in Redbourn; between approximately 32-36 weeks.

For newborns, I like to capture baby within the first 14 days after they are born. At this stage I can pose your baby in those sleepy curled womb-like poses! In some cultures it is tradition to celebrate when baby is 100 days old. These photography sessions are very popular for their simplicity and importance to capture baby at this milestone.
Services
I started Annie Griggs Photography in 2016 when my focus was primarily location and lifestyle photography. The business grew and developed over time by word of mouth and I started to gain recognition from professional photography associations. I trained with some of the leading experts in the industry and I continually strive to be the best I can within my field.
Thank you Annie Griggs for two lovely sessions with our girls. Ronia was made to feel very special during her professional head shot session and Annie had great ideas and suggestions to prepare (bring the right clothes) and for positioning and outfits on the day. Amber heard from Ronia how much fun it was, and the less confident of the two sisters demanded her own session which Annie kindly fitted in.
I am always grateful when I have been given the honour to capture this extremely precious time full of love, anticipation and such genuine emotions during pregnancy. I like to create a relaxed maternity session where you feel safe and secure so that you can enjoy your experience and embrace the beauty of pregnancy and this magical moment in your life.
Sometimes it is not possible to have your newborn photographed however there are many more milestone to capture. Here are a few of the key ones, my favourite is when they are just starting to sit independently and really starting to show their little characters. If you would like to capture all of these moments, please contact me about my Little Moments Sessions.
Having two children of my own, I know how quickly they change, and how fast time passes. Having a family photoshoot allows you to freeze time and helps you to hold onto those precious moments with your family that you can treasure and look back on fondly in the years to come.

All families are different, and that is why I take my time to look and capture your unique family bond, in classic timeless images for you all to look back on for years to come.Time moves quickly and children grow up in a blink of an eye. I see family photos as a way to capturing your family's unique character at that specific moment in time and sealing those memories forever.

Absolutely loved my beginners photography course with Annie. I’ve had a SLR camera for 5/6 years and have barely taken it out of the cupboard because I didn’t know how to use it properly. I wanted a course which would help me understand the basics of photography, understand my camera, and get to know some editing skills. Annie’s one on one course ticked all these boxes and more. She’s full of energy, passionate and a complete expert and I’m so grateful to now be a bit more equipped in using my camera and taking nice pics of family and friends! Thanks so much

I choose Annie because I really liked her style and eye when it comes to B&W portrait photography and fair to say, she did not disappoint! She was very quick to respond to my emails and all the way to the appointment. On the day she made me feel very comfortable and at ease, she is so friendly so it was very easy anyway! She managed to capture exactly what I had in mind and the photos looked great, which she send very swiftly. I will be definitely going back and recommending to other people. Keep up the great work Annie 😊

Annie Griggs, the most professional, friendly, fantastic photographer around.
Amazing pictures that capture the essence of my family and the wonderful colours of autumn (socially distanced!).
Lots of help and support choosing our final photos, explaining how she was going to make them even better and choosing frames. Exceptional service and beautiful photos for us to display
Highest recommendation possible.
Thank you Annie 💕

Annie is both a talented photographer and a really lovely person. She offered to snap my mother as a favour - a very rare find! Hoping to come and see you soon Annie.

Thank you Annie Griggs for two lovely sessions with our girls.

Amber heard from Ronia how much fun it was, and the less confident of the two sisters demanded her own session which Annie kindly fitted in. Both girls a great time at the second session and Annie was not phased by outfit dramas and sisterly quarrels.... The sessions were calm and fun for both girls (and me) and the results and attention

Getting professional headshots felt necessary but uncomfortable. Annie was amazing at putting me at ease and taking some photos that I actually liked! Thank you

Annie has been teaching my daughter the basics of photography over the summer and it has been so worthwhile! My daughter has come away with a set of life long skills she will use in years to come. She thoroughly enjoyed her lessons and wants to learn more now, thanks to Annie. She was so good with her too, Really professional. When taking a photo now, she really knows what she’s looking for and loves editing them. Thanks.
