Good to know

A family photoshoot in Dubai at your family's pace

A family photoshoot in Dubai works best when nobody has to sit still for long. We follow the children's lead, keep things moving, and watch for the small connections: a hand on a shoulder, a sibling whispering a secret, a grandparent laughing at something just out of frame. There's gentle direction for a few group portraits, but most of the photos come from play.

Sessions suit new parents, big extended families and everyone in between. Our family photographers are based in Dubai and work across the UAE, so the same approach travels to Abu Dhabi or Sharjah, where shoots carry a travel fee. In a city where many families live far from their relatives, these photos tend to travel: printed for grandparents, framed in a hallway, shared in the family group chat. Expecting another baby? Pair this with maternity photography before the birth.

Photographing toddlers and kids

Young children have short windows of patience, so we plan around them:

  • Timing: book around naps and meals. For little ones, a morning session is often happier than a late one.
  • Warm-up: chasing, spinning and piggyback rides come before anything posed.
  • Comforts: keep snacks, water and a favourite toy close, just out of shot.
  • No pressure: tears happen. We pause, let them reset and carry on.
  • Spare clothes: pack a change for anyone likely to end up in the sea or the sand.

For toddlers, a short session is often plenty. Older children tend to need a little longer to warm up and start enjoying themselves.

Beach, park or an at-home family session

A beach family photoshoot in Dubai is the classic choice. The Beach at JBR is lively towards sunset, while any stretch of sand at sunrise is cooler and emptier, and children can paddle before the heat builds. Golden hour gives the warmest light but brings more people.

Parks and gardens, Dubai Miracle Garden among them, give colour and room to run. Al Seef adds heritage walls and the creek for families who want a setting with more character.

An at-home family session records the life you actually live: breakfast in pyjamas, story time on the sofa, the chaos of getting everyone out of the door. Home is also where very young children feel most at ease, and it keeps you out of the summer heat. Morning light through a big window is often the loveliest at home. A studio session is an option too.

Seasonal family photos

Eid, Christmas and New Year are natural moments for seasonal family photos, for cards, gifts for grandparents or simply marking another year in the UAE. There's no special seasonal package; the regular packages work for any occasion. These dates fall in peak season, roughly October to April, so book 2-3 months ahead if you have a particular weekend in mind. For a card deadline, express delivery gets the photos to you sooner.

Choosing a package

Pick by the ages and number of people. The packages above set out what each one includes, with current prices, from a short session for little ones to longer coverage for extended families or two locations. For regular dates, book 2-4 weeks ahead. Sneak peeks come within 48 hours, and every package includes a private online gallery with download access.

If you'd prefer a woman behind the camera, female photographers are available on request, and you can ask for Sadiya herself at a premium rate. See the family photo gallery, compare the family packages and plan your family session.

Family FAQs

What people ask us before they book, answered plainly

Yes, if you choose the time well. At sunrise the sand is cooler and emptier, and children can paddle before the heat builds. The Beach at JBR is lively towards sunset, and golden hour gives the warmest light but brings more people. For toddlers, a morning session is often happier than a late one.

Not at all; it is what we plan for. We keep the session moving, take the posed group photo while everyone is fresh, and photograph the running around in between. Book a time that fits naps, bring snacks and a favourite toy, and leave the silliness to us. At that age, a short session is often enough.

Choose a palette of two or three soft colours and let each person wear a different mix, rather than identical outfits. Avoid big logos and cartoon characters. Children should be comfortable enough to sit on the floor or run on sand, so bring a spare set for the beach. Dress the youngest last so their outfits stay clean until we start.

Yes. Tell us how many people are coming in your request so we can plan groupings and timing. Larger families usually need a longer session to cover each household as well as the whole group. For a big gathering, an extra photographer lets one of us focus on candid moments while the other runs the group shots.

Yes, home is one of the locations in the planner. We look for rooms with good daylight, so a morning or afternoon slot works best; open the curtains and clear a little floor space. You do not need a styled house, because the lived-in details are part of the story. It is a good choice in summer and for shy children.

There is no special seasonal package, but any regular package works for Eid, Christmas or New Year photos. A short session is a good fit for cards. These dates fall in peak season, so book 2-3 months ahead, and add express delivery if you have a print deadline.

Theresa Massoud

Sadiya is AMAZING and our pictures came out beautiful! But the best part about Sadiya is her generosity. She is generous with her time, generous with her patience (our family photoshoot had three very excited little boys), and generous with her service (she gave us a lot more photos than what we agreed to). I HIGHLY recommend her. Thank you, Sadiya for capturing our family so beautifully. Will definitely reach out to for our next shoot!

Usama Rehmat

Had a great experience! The photographer was very cooperative, creative, and punctual. The pictures came out beautifully edited with great attention to detail. Highly recommended for anyone looking for quality photography.

Ess

Honestly one of the best photographers you can ever have for any event. I was in such a daze looking for photographers and videographers for my wedding, and I came across their profile and when I saw their work I had a hunch that they would be amazing and booked them. Not only are they amazing and their package prices super good, they are friendly, top notch quality work, and just an amazing experience ♥️ I have nothing but gratitude and respect for them and I thank them severly for all the work they put in 😍 i would recommend them for anyone who is looking to book them, you wont regret it!

I had the most amazing experience with my photographer! She made my husband and I feel so comfortable and natural the entire time, and the photos turned out absolutely beautiful. She captured our love, our personalities, and all the little moments in such a genuine way. Her professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail truly stood out. I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out and will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!

I feel so lucky to have had Sadiya capturing both our pre-wedding shoot and our wedding day. She was incredibly professional, kind, and made us feel so comfortable from the very beginning. Her eye for detail is amazing, every photo came out absolutely beautiful, natural, and full of emotion. She managed to capture not just the moments, but the feelings behind them. You can truly see the passion she puts into her work. I couldn't recommend her enough. Thank you, Sadiya, for turning such special moments into memories we'll treasure forever

vania jeffe

Very patient and professional. Easy to reach out and communicate, was punctual and reached the venue on time. The photos turned out beautiful and captured such precious memories. Highly recommend!

Mohammad Adel

Had the most amazing photos from our sessions with Pixelicous! 🙏🏻 I honestly have to thank her twice for going above and beyond. After we lost some time due to technical issues, she more than made up for it by showing up as early as sunrise to make sure we got the best possible shots. She was incredibly professional, patient, and helpful throughout, especially with posing and getting us ready for the perfect photos. You can truly see the passion and effort she puts into her work. Thank you for capturing these beautiful memories so perfectly. We couldn’t be happier with the results! 🙏🏻

We’ve had the pleasure of having Sadiya cover two of our son’s birthday parties and we couldn't be happier with the results. She is very friendly, professional and has a talent for capturing genuine moments - highly recommended!

CKZ Returnz

We had the most wonderful experience with Pixelicious Photography for a first birthday, and I couldn’t recommend them more. From start to finish, she was incredibly professional, patient, and so lovely to work with. amazing with our 1 year old and made her feel completely comfortable, which really showed in the photos. Capturing moments with a one-year-old isn’t always easy, but she managed to catch the most beautiful, natural smiles and special memories from the day. The photos turned out absolutely stunning — bright, high quality, and full of personality. They perfectly captured the joy and we’ll treasure these memories forever. Thank you to the whole Pixelicious team for being so friendly, organised, and talented. We’re so grateful to have these photos to look back on such a special milestone. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for beautiful family or birthday photography.

Sadiya was absolutely incredible! From our first chat to receiving our final gallery, she was very professional, warm, and truly cared about capturing our day.

Sadiya covered both my daughters’ birthday celebrations, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She captured the most beautiful candid moments and all the little details so effortlessly.

Highly recommend Sadiya for anyone looking to capture special family moments beautifully.

Heather King

Sadiya is so amazing!! She takes amazing pictures and she’s so sweet and kind!! I highly recommend Pixelicious Photography!!

Ramya Shinai

Sadiya is by far the best photographer I have worked with ! She really knows her craft and is so good at what she does. She puts customers at ease right from the beginning and makes photoshootd so much fun for little kids too ! My 4 year old enjoyed working with Sadiya and my ten month old ( who was quite sleepy and fussy from teething at the time of shoot ) also cheered up magically and got lots of really cute and fun pictures taken which was a huge surprise for us. I want to share just a few of the beautiful family portraits that Sadiya captured of us in Dubai. When in Dubai, if you are looking for a photographer, look no further. Sadiya is truly the best 👌

Noor-ul-Ain- Maaz

Honestly i did one shoot with her and decided to never go with anyone else except her as she makes you feel like you’re home, you’re comfortable and making sure everything goes smoothly. She’s so calm and patient with everything. The most humble photographer i have ever encountered and is always on time, she’s that friendly face that you want when you’re doing a shoot with your kids so they feel just as comfortable. Her shots are absolutely beautiful and so far i have done 3 shoots with her and i can safely say i have been extremely happy how everything turned out❤️❤️❤️
