We all know Brisbane has the best newborn and family photographer (hello, that's me 🙋♀️), but if you’re outside my sunny corner of Queensland, don’t worry, I’ve rounded up my favourite photographers and some absolute gems of businesses that make family life a little more beautiful, easier, or just plain fun.
Whether you’re welcoming a new baby, planning a birthday bash, or spoiling your fur-baby, this list is full of people I’d personally trust with my own family.
📸 Photographers I Adore (From Coast to Coast)
💜 Melbourne Newborn – Always Belle Photography
Elle is basically a baby-photo queen in Melbourne. Gorgeous clean style, soothing presence, and a studio that’s like a warm hug.
💜 Melbourne Family – Enhance Studios
Fun, vibrant, and family-focused. Enhance Studios is perfect for families who want joyful, personality-packed images that still feel polished and professional.
💗 Northern Suburbs (Sydney) – Uber Photography
Uber cool (sorry, had to), this studio is known for capturing real family moments with heart. If you're up north in Sydney, you'll love their relaxed, authentic style.
💗 New South Wales – Lollie Clare Photography
Lauren brings a mix of fun and elegance to every session. She makes even the most chaotic toddler feel like a supermodel — her work is just gorgeous.
🐾 Blue Hills – Tame and Wild
Let’s hear it for the fur-babies! Pete from Tame and Wild is the best pet photographer in Australia - and that is facts. His portraits are soulful, striking, and full of furry charm. If your dog is your baby (or your cat runs the house), Pete’s your guy.
🖤 Adelaide – Kate & Co Photography
Kate is all about connection and storytelling. Her images feel like little visual love letters between families. Total pro, zero awkwardness.
🤎 Adelaide – Fable & Fig
Whimsical and warm, Fable & Fig nails that earthy, soulful vibe. If you want images that feel like modern fairy tales, this is your team.
💙 Perth – Lilypad Photography
Lil is a light wizard — her images are fresh, bright, and full of energy. She’s also a genius at getting grumpy kids to smile. Perth families, take note.
🤍 Hobart – Zanzo Photography
Classy, artistic, and full of feeling. Zanzo’s work tells stories in a way that feels big and meaningful. Think heirloom, not happy snap.
🧡 Melbourne Bayside – Photo Bat
Creative, quirky, and totally unforgettable. Alan from PhotoBat is known for capturing the real you, with a side of cheeky charm and an artist’s eye.
💛 Gold Coast – Winni Minni Photography
Light-filled, timeless, and pure magic. Winni Minni is all about dreamy newborn goodness and gentle, calm sessions. If you're on the Goldie, she's your go-to.
👨👩👧👦 Family-Friendly Small Businesses to Bookmark
Gorgeous kids' party styling and dreamy setups. Balloons, picnics, flower walls — they bring the Pinterest vibes to life.
A baby boutique full of the good stuff: stylish clothes, toys, and gear for new mums and bubs.
🧘♀️ Bub & Bloom – Perth
Postnatal yoga, wellness workshops and mother’s groups. Supportive, gentle, and perfect for that fourth trimester.
Show-stopping cakes and dessert tables for every special occasion. Pinterest-worthy AND delicious.
Stylish wooden toys, baby play gyms and teethers — all designed to look good in your home and keep your bub entertained.
Bright, bold bedding and fun homewares for kids and grownups alike. Obsessed with their baby and kids’ range!
Cooking classes and parties for kids — fun, educational, and great for confidence (and snack production).
Beautiful nursery and kids' furniture that grows with your family. Built to last and stylish to boot.
Printable play-based learning resources for toddlers and preschoolers. Genius for rainy days or screen-free play.
Subscription boxes full of beautiful, Aussie-made goodies for mums and bubs. A little monthly treat? Yes please.
So wherever you are in Australia, from Tassie to Perth, from the Gold Coast to the 'burbs of Sydney, there’s a brilliant photographer ready to capture your family’s story.
And if you are in Brisbane? Well, you already know who to call!
