As I sit down to write this blog post, the memories flood back to me. The laughter, the tears, the embraces - all captured in the photographs I have taken over the years. It's a bittersweet feeling, knowing that as children grow older and families move away, those moments become more infrequent. But when we do come together, it is even more important to capture those precious moments of togetherness.

From the moment I stepped into my clients home in Samford, Brisbane, I could feel the warmth and love that enveloped this family. The love shared between the parents was evident in every look, every smile and every touch. Their admiration for one another was palpable and it set the tone for the entire session.

Over the course of ten years spent photographing Brisbane families, particularly North Brisbane, I have found what works, what doesn’t and where we will best find the perfect shoot location for your family.

A family who books in for their photographs every year, this is how we record growth and show what each season looks like. I have captured each child as a newborn and love watching them grow, now I ensure I get each child’s individual portrait and I always imagine them printed big and hung in their home framed next to each other.

Choosing a location that suits your family, allows your children to be themselves and have fun is so important! This Australian bush location has a few mosquitoes but light is dreamy and you get a kangaroo sighting guarantee!
