Hester Barnes Photography & Film

CAPTURING LOVE, LIFE & EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN

Beautiful, award winning photography & films for joyful families, intimate enchanting weddings and creative business founders.

Experienced Guildford Family, Baby, Wedding and Brand Photographer & Film Maker, working throughout Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire, London & the South of England. Awarded Best Photographer 2021 by Muddy Stilettos Surrey

The story of life is imperfect, beautiful and entirely yours. My job as a photographer and film maker is to capture the special moments that bind you, the unique chemistry & chaos that exists only in your world.

If you want a posed studio style shot - then I am probably not your girl. Our life has the most colourful backdrop and I am all about seeking out the most flattering natural light.

The love that exists in the quiet spaces between the chaos, and the loud messy fits of giggles. The joy of connection, not posed or forced. Those are the seconds that make up the images and films I capture.

The quiet combination of photography & cinematic film; capturing the between the in-between. Smiles without smiling, kisses like the first, laughs from your heart. Unique moments to hold onto forever, preserving the purest moments between you and your most precious, for generations to come.

I am so delighted to be part of this.

I am a Surrey Family, Baby, Wedding, Headshot & Brand Photographer & Videographer. Based in Guildford and hold photoshoots in your home or shoot on location throughout Surrey. Including Guildford, Godalming, Haslemere, Petersfield, Farnham, Cobham, Leatherhead, Dorking, Surbiton, Reigate, Kingston, Esher, Epsom & Weybridge. I also cover parts of Hampshire, Sussex and SW London, Clapham, Wandsworth, Battersea and more. Please get in touch to find out if I cover your area.

ABSOLUTELY THRILLED

Hester photographed our family when our son was 14 days old. She is so warm and friendly and put us all at ease. She was a huge hit with our shy 3 year old. We are thrilled with the photos. We would absolutely recommend Hester!
