The Importance of Family Photography: Freezing Memories
Family photography sessions capture the joy, connection, and personality that make your family unique. As childhood passes quickly and the pace of daily life moves ever faster, these sessions offer a way to pause and preserve this moment in time — capturing your children just as they are right now. Whether celebrating a milestone, documenting a family holiday in Switzerland, or simply preserving everyday moments together, the experience is designed to feel relaxed, natural, and meaningful.

BEAUTIFUL LOCATIONS
FOR FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY
IN SWITZERLAND
Switzerland offers an extraordinary variety of locations for family photography. From the dramatic mountain scenery and alpine lakes of the Swiss Alps to the beautiful shores of Lake Geneva, each setting provides a unique atmosphere.
The Swiss Alps
Dramatic mountain scenery and alpine lakes. Go for a hike or take a télécabine up to the top of a mountain. My hometown of Leysin is a perfect location in all seasons with 360 degree views of lake Geneva, Dents du midi, the forest, alpine chalets, and more. Villars is also a special place. In the summer and fall, locations such as Lac Retaud and Lac de Chavonnes are also accessible by car.
Zermatt & The Matterhorn
One of Switzerland’s most iconic backdrops in every season.
Lake Geneva & Swiss Riviera
Lakeside scenery with Riviera charm. Promenade with your family near Territet, or get grand views in Les Pléiades.
Lavaux Vineyards
A UNESCO World Heritage landscape overlooking Lake Geneva, the terraced Lavaux vineyards offer golden light, sweeping lake views, and a countryside atmosphere.
The Jungfrau Region
Waterfalls, alpine meadows, and spectacular views of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau. A Lauterbrunnen family photography session delivers classic Switzerland beauty and dramatic mountain landscapes.
Château de Chillon
Set on the shores of Lake Geneva near Montreux, Château de Chillon is one of Switzerland’s most iconic historic landmarks. Surrounded by the lake and Alpine peaks, the medieval castle offers a fun, rustic and historical setting for family photography.
The Peace Love Leigh Philosophy
I am honored to photograph families from all backgrounds and cultures, celebrating every individual with openness, respect, and a deep appreciation for what makes it everyone unique.
My approach to family photography is relaxed and unobtrusive, allowing children and parents alike to feel comfortable and simply enjoy time together. Rather than rigid posing, I gently guide moments of connection and play to create images that feel authentic and full of life, capturing the candid, in-between moments.
