Pop Up Picnics

Posted on September 10, 2025September 11, 2025

It may seem strange that a photography company does Pop Up Picnics, but it all makes sense really! I was gifted a picnic for my birthday and loved it, but I couldn’t get any decent photos of us! No-one walked past so we had to settle for selfies. So I thought: what if a picnic came with a professional photographer?! And then I thought: what if a professional photographer arranged picnics?! So here we are!

I actually loved buying all the stuff I needed! It was so much fun, and then I did a set up in the backyard for website photos! The best bit about the pop up picnics so far has been that my kids have been involved!! They love helping and setting up!

Emily contacted me a few months ago asking if I could do a picnic for 19 people! I had only really catered for 12, but sure! Why not! Happily they wanted their pop up picnic in Wynnum, not too far from me. We set up in Drevesen Park by the water but in plenty of shade.

In addition to a grazing box or two provided by local legends Jill and Pablo from The Grazing Kitchen (check them out, they’re awesome! https://www.facebook.com/grazingkitchen13/), our picnics are unique as they include a photo shoot to capture your experience properly!

We did the photos before the feasting began (to avoid watermelon juice redecorating the kids’ clothes!!) and I got some candid photos of everyone enjoying their picnic. Then I left the guys to it and came back 2 hours later to clear up! Easy!

A Pop Up Picnic is an amazing, hassle-free way to spend a morning or afternoon, and is ideal for a celebration, a girls afternoon, a baby shower, birthday or family catch up. And having your own photo shoot means you can share your event and relive it!

You can get more information, such as prices and inclusions, at our dedicated Pop Up Picnics page.

Picnic packages start at $375.00 all inclusive for 2-3 people, and includes a grazing box, a photo shoot, set up, and clear up! You just have to turn up and smile!

I would love to hear from you! Call Andy on 0468 405225 or email andy@athousandmilesphotography.com.au for any enquiries or bookings!

Website Photographer Brisbane

Posted on May 30, 2024March 11, 2025

Every business needs a website, and every website needs a series of amazing photographs to showcase what you do. Andy Williams is a website photographer Brisbane and can help lift your online presence with a collection of fabulous, website-ready photos.

Sundari contacted me with a specific selection of website photographs she was wanting for her website. I love getting shotlists! Although I am always happy to offer advice and suggestions, a little input goes a long way!

We started in MK Cafe in New Farm Park and took some ‘lifestyle’ photos. Sundari brought along some friends as ‘models’ to participate in a reading to help highlight her work.

From here we headed into New Farm Park. You will often find me snapping away in the park – it has so many amazing backdrops and a great variety of locations. From the urban chic Powerhouse, the big tree, and the buildings of Brisbane’s CBD. A website photographer Brisbane needs to have a repertoire of photography locations!

Our website photography packages are surprisingly affordable, starting at $165 for a 30-minute shoot in the Redlands, or $330 for an hour in Brisbane CBD. We work 7 days a week so can fit around your availability! And your high resolution digital images are always included.

To find out more or to check availability please feel free to contact us.

Every good website needs a series of sharp, distinct images that set your business above the competition. A Thousand Miles Photography have over ten years experience in business photography and branding and commercial photography so can help with your online presence.

We are available to photograph your office interiors, accommodation and hotel photography and specialise in corporate headshots. Operating 7 days a week means we fit within your schedule and our non-invasion approach to photography leads to efficiency and quick turn around times.

Business Photography

With plenty of lifestyle photography experience and having worked within the hotel industry for over a decade, we are your first choice for accommodation and office photography. Our recent work includes the 5 Gold Coast StayCo hotels – BelAir, Belle Maison, Artique, Ocean Pacific and South Pacific, and Revolve Projects in Windsor. We have also recently worked with Canopy day care centres to refresh their website and branding.

Interior Photography

Posted on February 5, 2024February 5, 2024

Having a series of high quality interior photographs of your office or business will do wonders for your website. The API day-care centre at Milton wanted some fresh interior photographs of their centre for a branding refresh, so I headed down there one Sunday whilst the centre was child-free for an interior photography session.

Interior photography is very different to wedding and family photography. In many ways interior photography is far easier as all you need is a tidy room and a tripod!

In three hours we were able to get over 150 photos of the day-care centre. I photographed every one of the rooms, got some branding photographs in the reception area, and got some detail photos in each of the rooms. I also ventured outside for some external shots of the day-care centre.

If you are looking for a rebrand or a website refresh, an interior photography session is a great way to brighten your brand. We work seven days a week so can come to you whenever works for you.

Andy has been taking interior photographs for over a decade so works quickly and non-invasively, and with rapid turn around times and affordable rates, you will be in very good hands! For a quote, or to chat about your needs please feel free to contact us.

Headshot Photographer

Posted on February 1, 2024March 11, 2025

A great website needs great images. A picture tells a thousand words, right?! And a series of fantastic headshots will not only bring your website to life, but will show your clients who they are dealing with. Phone selfies just don’t cut it these days. One sharp, stylised, and edited image will do the work of 100 blurry I-Phone photos! Having an experienced headshot photographer is a must to set you apart from your competition.

Happily I work fast! So when I get called out to a headshot shoot, we will regularly get several different headshots and poses in a very short time frame. I will travel to your workplace with my camera and lighting and will you have you looking fantastic in minutes! Having been a headshot photographer for over 10 years means I work quickly and efficiently!

The guys at Revolve Projects and Bayer Stevens share office space in Windsor, so in an hour we were able to get several different headshots of each person, and even had time for some interior office photos too.

The difference an hour will make to your website and social media presence is immense. Professional photography gives your business a professional outlook.

We travel to you so disruption and time out of the office is minimal. We also turn around 95% of jobs within a week. Each photography job is different so contact us for a quote. Most headshot photography jobs within the Brisbane area are $330 for an hour.

Should I Feed My Wedding Photographer?!

Posted on January 16, 2024March 12, 2025

Should I feed my wedding photographer is a question I get asked a lot! And my answer is always the same; if you want to!

A lot of wedding photographers will insist on being fed at your wedding but I understand that if I had a ‘normal’ job, you wouldn’t be shouting my lunch! So I am fairly flexible about it! It is always lovely to have something to eat during a long work day, but it isn’t a deal breaker for me!

The truth is, wedding photographers work very hard and rarely, if ever, get a break, so having a meal towards the end of the day is always very much appreciated and can kick start those energy levels just as they begin to wane! And most, if not all, wedding venues have a ‘supplier meal’ option that will cost a fraction of a guest meal – usually somewhere around the $20-$30 mark. A good wedding photographer will not spend an hour eating – we understand that being in the right place at the right time is absolutely paramount for capturing amazing images, so we will eat quickly, and will be back photographing before you’ve picked up your fork!

And the reality is that there is not usually another option for a wedding photographer to eat! Venues do not let photographers bring in their own food, and it is very rare for a venue to be so close to another food outlet that it is worth a vendor heading out to eat.

In conclusion, you should never feel obligated to feed your wedding photographer, but when there is no other option it always very much appreciated! And keeping those energy levels high will benefit you ten times over!

Event Photography Gold Coast

Posted on June 1, 2023March 11, 2025

For your event photography on the Gold Coast, A Thousand Miles Photography have you covered! Our friendly and professional photographer, Andy Williams, has been photographing Gold Coast events for over ten years. He has photographed events ranging from small birthday gatherings through to huge 1000+ people conferences at SeaWorld so is the perfect choice for your event photography Gold Coast requirements.

Andy was approached to photography Forty Winks’ annual conference. The event was spread over 2 evenings with the first evening being a more relaxed welcome gathering at Miami Marketta, and the 2nd evening was a formal Gala Awards Dinner at Movie World. We have photographed in both venues before so knew it well, and with detailed email and phone contact beforehand, we knew the precise timelines of both events.

The Miami Marketta event was a relaxed affair with welcome drinks, a brief welcome and speech by Forty Winks’ CEO, followed by a DJ and dancing into the night. Miami Marketta has food trucks on site, all of which makes for interesting event photographs! Andy has an eye for detail so photographed everything from candid people photographs to small details of the food trucks and menu.

If you are wanting your next event on the Gold Goast professionally captured, feel free to contact us to discuss options and inclusions. All of our event photography packages include your edited high resolution digital images, a phone consultation beforehand and unlimited email access in the build up to your event.

If you have an upcoming event, let me know a few details (date, location, duration etc) and I will happily send through a quote: 0468 405225 or andy@athousandmilesphotography.com.au

Headshot Photography Brisbane

Posted on May 24, 2023March 11, 2025

There is not much that will grab your client’s attention quicker than a set of professional headshot photographs on your website. Headshot Photography needn’t be a stressful, expensive hassle that takes time out of your work week; A Thousand Miles Photography will come to you, and in an hour we will have 30 – 40 high resolution digital office and staff photos for your website.

I recently met with Adela from Rethink Psychology to capture some new, updated office photographs and headshot photography at her office in Stones Corner, Brisbane. Happily the office space was clean and without distractions so within minutes we had plenty of usable branding photos, and crisp, clear photos to show the work space.

We then moved onto the headshot photography, using both the inside of the office and an outdoor area to capture photographs of Adela in her working environment. I personally prefer the ‘on location’ look of headshots in situ, as opposed to the more traditional method of using a plain backdrop. It also requires less equipment, which means less hassle and less mess!

Adela had a few ideas for the photos, which made the headshot photography shoot go seamlessly.

A headshot photography session with A Thousand Miles Photography will transform your website and corporate image, and shoots start at $165 for 15 high resolution images. We come to you, making the process simple and stress-free. Please contact us with some details and we can do the rest!

Business Photographer

Every good website needs great photographs, and employing a corporate photographer to do your business photography means your website, and business, will stand out from your competitors!

Jamee from Liqwyd Solutions, a Redlands based plumbing company, did just that! Jamee made the process incredibly easy, with a list of photos they wanted for the website. There was a great mix of staff shots and some ‘on the job’ photos too.

Having professional business photographs on your website adds a level of professionalism that phone photos simply won’t give you! Looking professional on your store front gives your clients the confidence that they are dealing with a professional business.

We are able to do staff headshots, live ‘on the job shots’ and any close up and detail photos that will highlight what services your business offers. And we also travel to you!

We will bring your clients attention to your branding and logo, as in the business photographs above.

Every business is different so we listen to your wishes and work accordingly. We can offer advice in terms of lighting and posing, and welcome all input!

A business photography photo shoot doesn’t have to take all day. Liqwyd Solutions received around 50 high resolution digital images from a one hour photo session, so we don’t have to stop your staff from missing too much work! We also don’t mind early starts if that works better for your work day!

Every business photography job is different but for an obligation-free quote please contact us and whilst you’re here why not check out Liqwyd Solution’s website!
