Introducing Little Legends: Fun, Story Led Photo Sessions for Nurseries and P2 in Aberdeenshire.

I’m so excited to introduce Little Legends, a new photography service from Annie Rees Photography created especially for nursery children through to P2. These sessions are designed to be calm, creative, and full of personality, giving families something far more special than a standard school photograph.

At the heart of Little Legends is the idea that childhood should feel magical. These are the years of imagination, storytelling, dress up, wonder, and playful expression, so I wanted to create a portrait experience that reflects that. Rather than stiff poses and rushed photographs, Little Legends sessions are designed to help children relax, engage naturally, and enjoy the experience. The result is a collection of portraits that feel warm, genuine, and full of character.

A more creative approach to school and nursery photography

Little Legends is more than just a photo day. It is a playful portrait experience that can be tailored to suit your setting, age group, and the feel you want to create. From timeless fine art portraits to whimsical themed backdrops, the aim is always the same: to capture children in a way that feels age appropriate, natural, and memorable.

For younger children especially, the right environment makes all the difference. A themed or carefully chosen backdrop can spark imagination, help children settle quickly, and create portraits that families truly treasure. Whether the look is soft and classic, bright and story based, seasonal, or linked to a learning topic, each setup can be selected to suit your nursery or school.

Designed to feel relaxed for children and easy for settings

One of the most important parts of this service is that it is built to be simple and stress free for everyone involved. Sessions are planned to fit around your day with minimal disruption, and my approach with children is always gentle, patient, and child centred.

I know that for schools and nurseries, photography needs to work smoothly. For parents, ordering needs to feel straightforward. And for children, the experience needs to feel safe, relaxed, and even fun. Little Legends has been created with all of that in mind, offering a seamless process from first enquiry to final delivery.

The honeycomb backdrop is just one of the many options available for you school settings photo day.

Tailored backdrops for every setting

A big part of what makes Little Legends different is the flexibility in styling. Backdrops can be chosen to match the season, a particular theme, or the overall look your setting prefers.

Options can include:

• clean classic backdrops for timeless portraits

• fine art style setups for a softer premium look

• playful story themed scenes for Little Legends sessions

• seasonal designs for spring, autumn, or festive sessions

• topic based backdrops linked to classroom themes

• custom selected styles chosen to suit your nursery or school

This means your photography day can feel more bespoke, more engaging, and more in keeping with your setting.

A service that gives something back

Little Legends is not only designed to create beautiful portraits for families, it is also intended to bring added value to the setting itself.

As part of the service, I offer 10% cash return on all sales to the nursery or school, along with complimentary staff photographs. These can be useful for staff boards, ID badges, and website use, making the day beneficial in more ways than one. It is a lovely way to provide something special for families while also giving back to the setting.

Why I created Little Legends

As an independent, accredited photographer, I wanted to create something that felt more personal, more thoughtful, and more creative for younger children. My work has always centred around capturing real expression and genuine personality, and this new service brings that same approach into nurseries and early primary settings.

Little Legends has been designed for the children who thrive when they feel relaxed, for the parents who want more than a standard smile, and for the schools and nurseries who want a photography service that is professional, beautiful, and easy to work with.
