You're on your way to booking your family photographer!
Hi! I'm Lou O'Brien
Sunshine Coast Family Photographer
Finding the right family photographer can feel like a mission, but you're in safe hands with me. With a background in press photography and over a decade of capturing families, I know how to create a relaxed, fun experience and deliver gorgeous, genuine photos you'll treasure forever.
I’ll gently guide you through a mix of natural moments and relaxed ‘formal’ shots—no stiff posing, no weird filters, just vibrant, timeless images that reflect your family's love and connection.
Think of me as more than just your photographer. I’m here to help you create beautiful memories and have a great time doing it. So let’s dive into my “3 C’s” philosophy and take a peek at my two fab packages: the Short & Sweet Collection and the Kindred Collection. Each one is designed with your family in mind.
Short & Sweet Collection starts at $297.
Kindred Collection starts at $797.
Gift Vouchers available.

"Lou did a family photo shoot for our family at the beach. I was a bit nervous how our 1 year old would go but Lou is so engertic and fun that our daughter was smiling and laughing in all the photos. We will always cherish these photos. I would HIGHLY recommend Lou for any kind of photography you are after."
Transforming your celebrations, connections, and cherished moments into timeless images.
The 3C's That Bind Every Family Story
After years of capturing the beauty of family moments, I've uncovered something truly special: whether it's a lively family reunion or a quiet day at home, every family shares three essential elements. These elements form the foundation of my 3C's philosophy...
My 3C's – Celebrating Your Family, Your Meaningful Connections, and Your Cherished Memories – are the essence of every family's story. I'm dedicated to preserving your family's journey, which is as unique as each member's personality. Here's how I craft a family photography experience that's as extraordinary as your family is.
Celebrate Your Family’s Love - Your Way
Your family's story is more than just everyday moments; it's the epic journey of your lives together. I'm on a mission to capture the heart and soul of your family's unique love story, whether it’s updating your yearly family photos or celebrating a family milestone.
Capture Connections - Heartfelt Moments
Your family moments aren't just ordinary; they're the building blocks of your family's legacy. I'll seize those connections that light up your family's life. It's not just the perfect photos; it's the imperfect moments that make the best memories.
Cherish Memories -
Beyond the Clicks
These photos aren't just snapshots; they're treasures of your family. As well as creating lasting memories your photos belong in albums, prints, and on your walls to preserve your family’s legacy for generations to come.
Your Family, Your Way!
I understand that every family is a unique story waiting to be told. That's why I offer two special family photography packages to choose from:
Short & Sweet Collection: This package is perfect for those looking to update their family photos. With a quick 20-minute photo shoot, you'll receive your three favorite images, beautifully edited and ready to cherish.
Kindred Collection: For those who want a more extended family photo experience, this collection offers up to an hour of photo shoot time and includes all the edited images. It's perfect for capturing the essence of your family's unique bond.
Just like your family, these packages are flexible and customisable to fit your specific needs. Want to add that extra touch of magic? I've got options to enhance your family photography, whether it's adding more family members to your photo shoot, additional session time, or image upgrades, I even have an online print store to turn your beautiful photos into tangible memories to adorn your home.
