Where the light pools - North Brisbane Family Photographer

"And sometimes,
If you wait long enough, 
if you hope hard, 
the dark clouds open 
and light
pools out defiantly 
once more" 

- Tyler Knott Gregson 

I am blessed to have been asked to capture many other photographers and their families in the past. Whilst I am always gripped with anxiety beforehand, I really am so grateful to be asked to do so. It's so wonderful to know that these images are going to be treasured. A chance for them to shine on the other side of the camera. Thanks so much for trusting me with your adorable family Victoria and making the most of our very cloudy situation. If you'd like to see Victoria's beautiful work you really should follow her on Instagram.. she's just amazing and so creative!



If you'd love to make your own special family photographs with me this year, please email xanthephotography@bigpond.com or if you'd like to see more of my work visit www.xanthephotography.com first. I photograph in North Brisbane mostly but do travel further afield. I am now taking bookings for September onwards.

Chasing Light - North Brisbane Family Photographer

It took quite a few reschedules (thanks weather) for me to finally meet this little family, but like all the good things in life, these guys were totally worth waiting for. Sweet, loving, all the best kinds of fun. A family that truly appreciates the importance of their photos. And yes we had beautiful light.. but I think I could have met this family anywhere anytime and created beautiful images with them. Why? Because of their heart, their connection and their appreciation. For all the little things about their children and their life that could change at any point. 


I've said it once and I'll say it over and over and over. You can photoshop a lot of things.. I've seen some quite drab photographs transformed.. but LOVE guys.. love and connection. You can't fake that x If you'd like me to help you make some beautiful images of your family this year please email me (Mandii) at xanthephotography@bigpond.com or visit www.xanthephotography.com for more information.

You can see the original session here: https://xanthephotography.blogspot.com/2015/04/beary-special-brisbane-baby-photography.html
