After finding Allie through Instagram, I could not wait to book a session for my daughters! Everything from the booking process, pre-attendance booklet to receipt of the final images was a flawless, professional process. Allie’s studio was beautifully presented and easy accessible. Allie made my daughters so relaxed and really took her time understanding what they like/dislike to make them feel the most comfortable.
Thank you so much Allie for the beautiful photos, something that we will continue to cherish year on year. We would recommend Allie to all. "

“ I could not wait to book a session for my daughters!
We had a wonderful Christmas photoshoot with Allie. It was so relaxed and Allie was so easy going and great with the kids! She is amazing at what she does, with a great attention to all the little details. Such a lovely person too! We are so grateful and will be coming back next year. "

“ The photos are absolutely stunning!
My daughters first photo shoot and she enjoyed it so much, Allie made her feel very welcome and and made it a very fun experience with Christmas songs playing and zero pressure. The photos from our shoot are literally outstanding quality, I’m so glad I chose Allie Sloan photography! Will Definitely be having more photos done in the future.."

meet your photographer
Hi, I’m Allie! Toddler Mum and Baby Photographer based in Southampton, Hampshire.
As parents, we know how deeply we want to hold on to those fleeting moments with our little ones, especially during the magic of Christmas. The way their eyes light up believing in magic, the cheeky smiles, and the pure joy that fills their hearts. There’s something so incredibly special about this season, and since becoming a mum myself, Christmas has taken on a whole new meaning.
My passion is to help fellow parents capture these priceless memories—moments you’ll cherish for years to come. Especially when your babies are all grown up and what remains are these beautiful images that remind us of their innocence and joy. Whether you’re thinking about creating timeless gifts for the grandparents, building a keepsake collection for your children, or simply wanting to freeze this precious age in time for yourself, a Christmas photoshoot is more than just pictures. It’s a way of preserving their childhood and the love that fills your home during the most magical time of the year.
So, whether this is your first family shoot or a tradition you’re continuing, Christmas is the perfect moment to create something truly unforgettable.
I can’t wait to capture these special moments for you.
With love,
Allie xx
got some questions?
The Christmas Mini sessions are held in my purpose-built, natural light home studio located in Hedge End, Southampton, Hampshire, UK.
Upon booking your Christmas mini shoot session you will be prompted to pay the deposit of £49 by card. After receiving your online gallery via e-mail post-shoot, you will be prompted to make final payment when ordering your final images. All major UK debit and credit cards are accepted.
I will try my best to reschedule for you if more than 7 days notice is given, however, I cannot guarantee another spot. Please contact me as soon as you know you need to reschedule and I will do my best to accommodate you. Your deposit of £49 is non-refundable for this mini-session shoot.
The set-up is designed for capturing families of up to 2 adults and 3 children. I will endeavour to capture individual, Sibling and family shots within the 20-minute time limit. The shoot is suitable for babies 6+ months old. If you have more than 3 children or younger babies, please contact me directly first before booking your slot and I will try my best to accommodate you 🙂
Following your shoot, you’ll receive a link to your soft-proof online gallery. From here you will be able to easily choose and order your favourite images. Once final edits have been made, your images will be delivered as high-resolution digital download files.
Your watermarked gallery will be sent to you within 2 weeks. Once you have ordered your images, they will be returned to you fully edited 1 week later; allowing plenty of time for you to use the images as gifts for Christmas should you wish :)
Yes! This shoot is suitable for up to 2 adults and 3 children. I highly encourage parents (especially Mums!) to take the opportunity to get in the photos.. as often we are the ones snapping away on the sidelines. Got to get those family shots in whenever possible! Of course if you'd just rather capture the kiddo's that's absolutely fine too :)
Honestly don’t overthink it! This set-up is deliberately kept tastefully festive yet to a neutral and pretty palette, so almost anything clothes-wise will work 🙂 I love classic cosy neutrals such as a knitted cardigan or jumper with jeans/leggings. Avoid lots of patterns and Logos that clash and will date your images. I will ask you to remove shoes in the studio unless they are very clean (or new) so either barefoot or some neutral socks, please! Otherwise, have fun picking outfits that are authentically you!
TIP: Please don’t leave picking out an outfit to the last minute – there’s nothing that ruins the mood like stressing about what to wear the night before.
TIP 2: Bring a Christmas jumper or pyjamas to add some fun and variety into your family gallery!
Tip 3: Make it fun and get everyone involved by doing a family fashion show and trying on loads of outfits from the wardrobes one night to make sure your outfits all work cohesively together. The kids feel involved and it’s great family bonding time!
