Affordable Maternity Photography

Posted on January 21, 2025

Those amazing nine months of pregnancy fly by all too quickly; an affordable maternity photography shoot is a great way to capture those memories.

I have photographed hundreds of Mums-to-be over the last 15 years so I am always happy to give some posing tips and advice.

Wellington Point Reserve is a great spot for maternity photography. And sunset is the perfect time of day. The sun (sort of!) sets over water, and the low light at the end of the day makes everything, and everyone, glow. I live close to the reserve so know the best spots for pregnancy photos, and know the best locations as the sun is setting.

Pregnancy Photographer

Our affordable maternity photography packages start at just $165 for a 25-minute pregnancy session in the mainland Redlands. This includes at least 15 high resolution digital images. An hour session, which includes at least 30 high resolution images is $220. You can get more information at the maternity photography page.

There is also the option to combine a maternity photo shoot with a newborn shoot. Doing a baby package means you get to celebrate and remember your whole pregnancy journey. And who doesn’t love gorgeous, squishy baby photos?!

“Thank you so so much Andy, wow they turned out amazing! better than I could have imagined.
We really appreciate your work! Just stunning.” Chelsea, November 2024

Affordable Family Photographs

Posted on September 11, 2024January 10, 2025

I have been photographing families for well over ten years. And I love my job! If you are looking for affordable family photographs, I would love to help out! I am a Dad to two kids myself so I speak their language! I also photograph 300 families a year so have plenty of training in dealing with meltdowns, shyness and tantrums!

Our Affordable Family Photograph packages start at $110 for one of our mini shoots. If you are wanting something a little more relaxed, and with a few more photographs included, you can book a 25 minute photo shoot in the Redlands for as little as $165.00. Being that all of our packages include your high resolution digital images, there are no hidden extra costs or charges involved. Refreshing hey?!!

Family Photo Shoot

Ayumi had booked a family photo shoot with me in 2022 and loved the experience so recently rebooked. She was looking for a more candid style of photography so after a handful of posed ones (good for Christmas gifts!) I put on the big lens and let the magic happen!

I have a lot of families who have family photos taken once or twice every year. Having an affordable family photographer means you can capture the kids growing. No-one ever said they had too many photos of the kids when they were little!

If you are looking to update the family photo collection or would love some affordable family photographs, you can call Andy on 0468 405225 (I am super friendly!!). Or my email is andy@athousandmilesphotography.com.au

I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Website Photographer Brisbane

Posted on May 30, 2024May 30, 2024

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 $149 for a 30-minute shoot in the Redlands, or $299 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.

Pet Photographer

Posted on May 29, 2024May 29, 2024

It isn’t often someone steals my heart but Rosie most certainly did! As a pet photographer I meet a lot of fur babies and love their unique charms and personalities! Rosie was just beautiful – so easy to photograph, so well behaved and such a loving and obedient puppy!

“They look fantastic, you got so many great ones of Rosie!! Really appreciate everything, you’ve been fantastic!” Jo

And so were her parents Jo and Jarrah! Jo had called a few weeks earlier wanting some pet photographs to capture Rosie before her surgery. I jumped at the chance! Every day is different for photographers and I love the chance for some weekend pet photography!

As with all of my family photography sessions, I get as many different combinations as possible. Pet photography is no different and I mixed up the combos early on! Rosie was an absolute gem in her solo photos, sitting on demand, staying when told to do so – as did her parents! On occasion 😉

We took the pet photography photos at Wellington Point Reserve. It is a great location with bay views, Moreton Bay figs and an open grassy area for Rosie to run around in. A pet photographer usually needs a degree of patience but not so with Rosie! She was a dream! And she even let me get some lovely couple photos of her Mum and Dad!

Our pet photography sessions start at $149 for a 30 minute shoot in the Redlands. To capture the unique personality of your fur babies, we would love to hear from you!

Mini Photo Shoots

Posted on May 15, 2024January 10, 2025

If you are looking for an affordable way to get a selection of amazing family photographs, our Mini Photo Shoots could be exactly what you are looking for! Lasting just 20 minutes (how kid-friendly is that?!), our mini photo sessions include 10 high resolution digital images without any compulsory print spend or added extras!

With the ever changing economy, I thought a budget-friendly option to photography would prove popular, and it really has! Mini Photo Sessions are here to stay!

The feedback has been amazing so I am going to make the mini shoots a regular thing! I will lock out a particular day every couple of months for a Mini Shoot Day, either in New Farm Park, or near me in Wellington Point Reserve!

Affordable Family Photography Brisbane

The shorter photo shoot time has been amazingly popular! Even the most restless of kids can stay still for 20 minutes! It has meant easier, more relaxed family photo sessions and without a hefty price tag! And that’s the best part – the Mini sessions at Wellington Point are only $110, and in New Farm Park they are $129! How good is that?

All of the family photographs on this page were taken at our mini photo shoots, so as you can see there is boundless option for photo combinations and locations.

As always, there are no restrictions to the number of people attending the shoot. A few things to remember:

Mini shoots last for 20 minutes and include 10 high resolution digital images
A non refundable deposit of $50 is required to confirm the booking. No shows or late arrivals will forfeit the deposit. The balance is due on the day.
Allow plenty of time for parking and delays! Mini shoots are time specific and late arrivals will eat into your shoot time!

You can check our next Mini Shoot Days on our Portrait Photography Page. Or you can email me at andy@athousandmilesphotography.com.au or call me on 0468 405225

I look forward to seeing you soon!

Affordable Maternity Photographer

Posted on May 8, 2024May 30, 2024

Although it may feel as if you have already been pregnant for years, those precious maternity months fly by all too quickly! An affordable maternity photographer, such as Andy Williams of A Thousand Miles Photography, can capture those amazing moments before the life change of Bub’s arrival.

We have two options for maternity photographs – either a standalone maternity shoot at a location of your choice, or we have a very popular maternity and newborn package available. This includes a 30-minute maternity shoot at Wellington Point Reserve (where these photos were taken!) and a 2-hour newborn shoot at your home. The total cost for this package is just $499 and will include 20 high resolution digital images from the maternity shoot and 40 from the newborn session!

You can get more information at this link, or we would love to hear from you!

So when is the best time to do an affordable maternity photography shoot? The best general advice is to have the baby bump photos taken around the 32-36 week mark when the bump is big but not too close to your due date that we may miss out!

Affordable Newborn Photographer

And what about the newborn photo shoot? Generally when Bub is around 2 weeks old, but in truth any time in the first 6 weeks works well!

A good affordable maternity photographer will give you some guidance for poses and advice on what clothing to wear. Something that makes you feel beautiful and confident works well, and something that will show off that glorious bump to maximum effect!

If you are considering having some affordable maternity photographs taken, we guarantee you won’t regret it! These months are too fleeting and capturing these priceless moments are a must!

We would love to hear from you! Andy Williams xx

Wedding Photographer Redlands

Posted on February 6, 2024May 30, 2024

Having lived in the beautiful Redlands for over ten years, I know the area very well and have photographed well over 100 weddings in the region. If you are on the search for a wedding photographer Redlands, I’d love to hear from you!

“Just wanted to say thankyou so much for our photos – they are absolutely beautiful! There are so many nice moments that you captured perfectly so thankyou so much” Jen

Jen and Bruce called me for their amazing back yard wedding in Sheldon and were delighted with my suggestions for bridal party photography! A Redlands-based wedding photographer knows the best spots for photos – a local always knows best!

We started with some bridal prep photos at Jen’s parent’s place, then I headed to Jen and Bruce’s property for the nervous tension phase of the day! I was delighted to see Fiona Eady from Ceremonies by The Bay was the celebrant for the day – being a local herself she knows the area well and her fun and laid back delivery is always welcome! https://www.ceremoniesbythebay.com.au/

The ceremony was amazingly delivered, with plenty of humour, emotion and tears!

I always the taking the group photo at a wedding – it is usually the most difficult photo to get as you need to have 100+ people looking at the camera at the same time and smiling! And sometimes we have an escapee!

Redlands Wedding Photographer

And following the ceremony we headed to West Mt Cotton Road for the bridal party photos! This is always my favourite part of the day when the bride and groom can finally relax and I get to be creative!

We had an amazing sunset and fantastic light so I was a happy Redlands wedding photographer as we headed back for the reception!

So if you are looking for a fun, relaxed wedding photographer in the Redlands, I would love to hear from you!

Headshot Photographer

Posted on February 1, 2024May 30, 2024

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 $299 for an hour.

Affordable Family Photographer!

Posted on January 16, 2024January 16, 2024

If you are looking for an Affordable Family Photographer, Andy Williams of A Thousand Miles Photography can help! I travel around South East Queensland photographing families, couples, and weddings, and I adore my job!

Not only will you have fun on your shoot, but you will receive your high resolution digital images (so there are no hidden fees or extra print charges!!) within a week! Finding an Affordable Family Photographer isn’t easy – all too often the sitting fees may seem reasonable but the costs of acquiring the photographs can be extortionate! We take great pride in what we do, and we do it fairly and affordably too!

I am based in the Redlands on Brisbane’s Bayside but travel throughout the South East Queensland region. It works out a little cheaper if you travel to my region but I cover anywhere from the Sunshine Coast, down to the Southern Gold Coast – you can see the pricing here.

I do a lot of my family photo shoots at Wellington Point Reserve as there are so many amazing backdrops we can use! But I know the Redlands, and the Great Brisbane region very well so am always happy to offer some location suggestions, and clothing and posing advice comes for free too!

Family photography is my full time job so I work 7 days and (almost!) 365 days a year to capture your beautiful family. If you would like to check date availability, I would love to hear from you!

Affordable Newborn Photography Brisbane

Posted on September 7, 2023September 7, 2023

Here at A Thousand Miles Photography, we specialise in affordable Newborn Photography Brisbane. I am a Dad to two beautiful munchkins myself so know too well the joys of a newborn baby! Even with the lack of sleep, there is nothing more amazing than those newborn baby cuddles!

Those early days fly by all too quickly and an affordable newborn photography session is the best way to keep those memories forever!

Our affordable newborn photography sessions are a 2-hour session that allows for plenty of time for crying, melt-downs, changes, and feeding, and the relaxed pace makes the shoot easy and rewarding for Mum and Dad! It also means we can do a change of clothing, add a few toys or teddies into the photos, and even allows for some photos with Mum and dad, siblings and fur babies!

Our affordable newborn photography shoots are done at your own home! Yep! You don’t even have to leave the house! We just need a small space to set up in, and we can do the rest!

The success rate of doing the baby photo session in your own home is so much higher than at a studio! You will always have spare nappies, blankets and clothes on hand, and Bub will be more familiar with her surroundings and with a more relaxed Mum and Dad!

Our 2-hour baby photography shoot is just $399, and includes around 40 high resolution digital images. And there is no additional minimum spend on prints! How refreshing is that!

If you like what you see and would like to lock in a session please don’t hesitate to contact me – I would love to hear from you!
