Home - Brisbane Family Photographer

Sometimes home really can be the best place to document your family. There's so many memories attached, it's comfortable and the images can have tremendous value if you happen to move somewhere else. It also makes it easier to include your pets (especially the camera shy or elderly ones). Such a wonderful time with this family earlier this year and so lovely to hear all the little tales as we photographed on their Brisbane property. Enjoy the little things.. collect those moments.. and keep working towards that beautiful tapestry. These are just a few of my favourites. 


If you'd love a session at home this coming year, please email me (Mandii) xanthephotography@bigpond.com I'd love to hear your ideas and make some memories with you.

These are the Days - North Lakes Brisbane Family Photographer

Sunshine, hugs, crazy fun, laughter and racing around in the wind. Such a joy to hang out with this family for their photographs. So much love, so much silly.. and oh so much tenderness. These are the days to remember guys. Be sure to capture it so you can hold it close forever.

And then there were five - North Brisbane Family Photographer

The youngest of five, and surrounded by so much adoration... and rightly so.. he's perfect. I just love seeing families change and grow. I first met these guys about four years ago and it was so good to see them again as I know just how much they treasure their photos. 

Time seems to have flown by since the session and I'm guessing this little love has long outgrown his newborn clothes and is probably sporting some cute My First Christmas onsie. This is why it's so important... it's all so fleeting. I was compiling some photo books today for my children from earlier this year, and already they look so, so different to just six months ago. Take the photos guys.. whether it's on your phones or by a professional... and don't just leave it there. Print your special memories. Make wall art, make calendars, make cheesy Christmas decorations and bookmarks and albums.  Let your children and your partners see how much you adore them, everyday. Make your home a tapestry of your memories. You'll never regret that. 

Here are just a few of my favourites.

Welcome Little One - North Brisbane Outdoor Newborn Photographer

I very often struggle to write blog posts. The truth is I can't seem to find the appropriate words. Photographs say so much more than anything I could clumsily string together. So I shall leave you with this collection of joyful, honest images and I hope the love this family has for each other and their new son shines through to you - the same way it did to me.
