Why Choose MellSnap
No posing.
Just real moments.
Photography with me feels more like a relaxed walk than a formal photo shoot. I gently guide you when needed, while creating space for natural, beautiful moments to unfold. I try to make the experience as simple and stress-free from start to finish.
Children can simply be themselves, playful, curious, full of life, and that's exactly what I capture. You receive all successful images in a private online gallery, beautifully edited and included without any extra fees.

About me
Hello, I'm Gaby
I'm a family, lifestyle, and event photographer based in Kingston upon Thames, serving South West and Central London. I believe in capturing authentic moments that tell your unique story. As a mother of two I truly understand how busy family life can be, and how important it is to have beautiful photos that capture the love and connection between you and your family. My goal is to create a relaxed and enjoyable experience for you, so we can capture moments that reflect your family's personality and bond.

"My wife had realised 7 months into her pregnancy that we didn't have any pictures together with 'the bump'. So naturally, she started looking for a maternity shoot and we are SO glad she found Gaby! Gaby picked a great spot for us, knew exactly where to go, and gave us some great ideas to pose in. But more importantly, she made us feel so relaxed - it didn't even feel like a shoot. I would strongly recommend hiring Mellsnap, Gaby is just as professional as she is kind-hearted 🙏🏽🙂"

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Which photo package is for me?
You can book a 10-minute free consultation with me and we are going to discuss the best package, as well as all the questions that you might have.
How long does it take to receive my images?
I try to retouch and process the images as soon as possible, normally it takes from 3 to 5 days for a mini session and from 5 to 10 days for a full session and events.
Do you have a photo studio?
While I may offer a studio option in the future, right now I specialise in outdoor sessions, where nature provides a beautiful, relaxed backdrop. Photographing families outside allows everyone to feel more comfortable and natural, so I can capture genuine connection, real smiles, and authentic moments that truly reflect your family.
What if it is raining?
We can reschedule for more sunny days, and you won't lose anything—I don't require a booking fee!
How will I get my images?
I'll send you a secure link from where you can download all the digital images whenever they are ready, they will be in two formats. One optimised for social media sharing and one for printing.
Will my photos be used for your blog or marketing?
I might use a few photos from our session on my blog or in marketing to help others discover my work, much like how you found me. Showcasing real photo sessions is key to reaching new clients. Let me know if you'd prefer not to have your photos featured!
How to book a photo session?
Booking a session is very easy, you can either click the button for a free 10-minute consultation with me on which we are going to discuss everything and reserve a date, alternatively, you can fill in the contact form or just call me, check the contact page for more details.
When is payment required?
I don't have a booking fee and all packages include all digital images. The payment can be done in various stages, on the session or just before you receive your images, whenever suits you best. I accept card and cash payments.
Are you doing photo prints?
No, not at the moment, but I'm able to help with printing information and good companies that do print, just let me know.
