There’s a reason we come back to Adam time and time again, he just really knows how to get the best out of children and adults alike – to put it simply, we wouldn’t go anywhere else.

The Portrait Company – formerly Adam Hillier Portraits & proudly the new portrait division of Adam Hillier Photography
Your family portrait experience, with us, is so more than a photoshoot. Our portrait experiences will take you on a journey that reconnects you with what you love most in your life & those you want to share a portrait experience with.
We create beautiful artwork that will remind you, every day, of the best version of you and your family. It is the celebration of what matters to you that is saturated into the canvas of your artworks that will turn your house into a home
When you are at home & you look at your artwork that we have created together, smile, as those loving emotions flood out saying yes, that is us, that’s my world – you are reminded instantly of your why.
• Discovery calls that take families on a journey, as we discover how to personalise the experience to you.
• A wonderful family portrait session, in our studio, with those most special to you – including the family pets
• Cinematic presentation of your photographs
• Design consultation, where we’ll assist you in the selection and creation of your artwork
• A 7×5″ desk frame featuring your favourite image
Your experience starts long before your photographic session, with your discovery calls. It’s during these calls that we’ll discover what you love most about your family.
It’s a chance to pause, to stop, to think & to remember who you love, what you love & why. Those little things, that look in the eye, the hug of a child, maybe the smell of her hair. Simple things, but ones that often go unseen, or are unintentionally taken for granted
To ensure you have a great experience, we make several of these short calls, so you have time to focus on different aspects of your family life that matter to you.
So we can see your family, through everyone’s eyes, we also make time to speak to partners & any other adults/older children sharing the experience with you – it is a real family experience at heart.
Your photography experience is where we bring all of what we have learned about who you love & what’s most important to you to capture the real essence of you & the people you love & value the most
We allow one to two hours for each photographic experience
To truly photograph you & your family, in the way you describe, we work in a relaxed, natural way that is enjoyable for everyone. We concentrate on you having a great time, enjoying just being yourselves, we do the rest
We are very confident that you will love the time you spend with us & that you will so excited to come back to see the photographs we’ve created together!

Over the years we have been asked many different questions by families considering or planning for a family portrait session, here are some of the most commonly asked questions. Feel free to get in touch if there is anything else you would like to ask about.
Bring them all, technically there’s no limit to the number of people who can be involved in a session as we have plenty of time to do different combinations and groups of people. Within one shot it is really hard to say as adults and children are different sizes, -but we are happy doing larger groups and will find a way to include as many as needed.
Yes, we will take you through our dressing for success guide which will really help you understand what different types of clothing to wear/bring. During these different parts of your session we will also use different backgrounds, and lighting to really create a wonderfully varied set of images for you.
Simply yes. We try to have a fun and creative part of the session where we really like to bring you and your hobbies and interests into some shots. We’ve had everything from full on baking equipment, scooters, ballet, fairy wings, walking boots, full camping setup, xboxes, sunglasses, funky fashion – you name it. The more involved and creative you are the more awesome the images end up!
Yes, of course you can. We do a lot of dog portraits and as dog people ourselves we know what a big part they play in the family. Just bear in mind that you may not want the dog in all of the images so we will need to be able to settle the dog when not involved.
