35 Years
We are celebrating 35 incredible years as a family portrait studio on the Luton and Dunstable border — and what a journey it has been. From newborn portraits and children's photography to multi-generational family sessions and maternity art, we have spent over three decades capturing the moments that matter most for families across Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire. 2025 also marks David and Sue's own 35th wedding anniversary, and we want to celebrate by giving back — raising funds for Bedfordshire Hospitals NHS Charity throughout 2025 and 2026.
£35 Shoots
To celebrate our Big 35, we are launching a special fundraiser in partnership with Bedfordshire Hospitals NHS Charity.
Book your family portrait photoshoot at our Luton studio for a £35 deposit and we will support Bedfordshire Hospitals with purchases from their charity wishlist. A timeless portrait session for your family — and a meaningful contribution to your local community. Book yours today.

WE LOVE OUR WORK
Over the last 35 years, we have taken a lot of photos at our studio which is now located on the Luton & Dunstable border and every session still brings us genuine joy.
We have had the privilege of photographing thousands of family celebrations across Luton, Dunstable and Bedfordshire: anniversaries, milestone birthdays, multi-generational gatherings, newborns becoming toddlers becoming teenagers — and some of our very first clients now bringing their own children and grandchildren to us. It is an honour we never take for granted.
As well as our family portrait photography sessions, we also offer magical themed experiences including our Original Fairy Experience and fun Christmas photoshoots.
Our purpose-built garden portrait studio gives us both beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces for your family photography session — calm, private and easy to find on the Luton and Dunstable border, with free parking on site.
INDOOR & OUTDOOR FAMILY PORTRAIT STUDIO -
LUTON & DUNSTABLE BORDER
Our purpose-built garden portrait studio gives us the freedom to create beautiful family photography in a wide variety of indoor and outdoor settings. Our indoor studio is modern, professionally lit and ideal for both casual and formal family portrait sessions. Our outdoor studio uses carefully developed garden spaces that children absolutely love — including our popular hedgehog seats which are always a hit with younger family members. And if the weather has other ideas on the day of your family portrait session? We always have a Plan B.

I have used Oakley studios for a family session and loved them so much now I am using them for their baby photoshoot with my new baby. Having a large family they worked wonders with our then 4 boys ( now 5) and got amazing photographs. Thank you Oakley studios.

David and Sue were accommodating and welcoming right from the first phone call! They made us feel very relaxed and at ease as they created a lovely calming atmosphere, whilst they carefully positioned and supported our little Oakley to capture some stunning pictures. They have a beautiful studio - a really beautiful set up - we can’t wait to go back
