About

About Me

I’m Lisa Williamson, a Northamptonshire-based photographer and the founder of Lisa Williamson Photography. I specialise in school and nursery photography — creating authentic, high-quality images for websites, prospectuses, staff portraits and marketing materials. My aim is always the same: to capture the character, energy and atmosphere of your school so every photograph feels welcoming, vibrant and true to life.

 

Why Work With Me

Known for being professional, approachable and reliable, I make photo sessions straightforward and enjoyable for both staff and students. I know how important it is that every image reflects your school’s values, vision and achievements.

As well as being a professional photographer, I’m a qualified Early Years Practitioner with many years of experience working with children — including those with additional needs. This background helps me create a calm, friendly environment where pupils feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera.

  • Friendly, approachable style with a background in childcare and education

  • Fully DBS-checked, with a strong understanding of safeguarding

  • Experience supporting children with additional needs

  • Flexible scheduling to fit around your busy school day

  • Quick delivery of polished, professional images

I’d love to help your school shine.

 

How It Works

Working closely with each school or nursery, I plan and produce modern, consistent images covering curriculum and extra-curricular activities, staff leadership portraits, uniforms, buildings and facilities.

On the day, I then;

– Photograph a mixture of naturally posed and documentary-styleimages that reflects your school’s values 

– Photograph as many subjects as possible indoors and outdoors classes. This usually includes Maths, English, Science, Humanities, Arts, Computing and Sports. We can photograph in lesson time, so there is little disruption to learning. I can work with you ahead of the shoot to advise on what type of school activities photograph well.

– I aim to photograph the children working with the teaching staffand when they are engaged in an activity and having fun.

Together we’ll build a portfolio that represents your community and inspires parents, carers and prospective families.

I’m passionate about helping schools and nurseries shine through meaningful photography — and I’d love to capture yours at its very best.
