Brisbane Formal Photography
With all the preparation and planning that goes into getting ready for a High School Formal, so many details and precious images can be missed if you rush to have your photos taken with the entire school when you arrive at the venue.
Engaging me to photograph you before you head off to your High School Formal allows you to immerse yourself in this special day, safe in the knowledge that I am busy capturing memories for you and your family to treasure.

PHOTOGRAPHING YOU
I’ll arrive at your home and spend quite some time photographing just you at first. I want you to have a beautiful collection of images that showcase how incredible you look and feel. I love details so I’ll be sure to photograph your gorgeous shoes, those earrings that you spent so much time looking for, your corsage and so much more.
YOUR FAMILY + YOUR FORMAL PARTNER
It’s a proud moment for your family. It’s often quite emotional to see their son or daughter looking so grown up. I want to photograph them with you so they remember how they felt on this special day. When your formal partner arrives, we’ll have some fun and take some photos of the two of you together before you head out to celebrate.
YOUR BEST FRIENDS
If you’re hosting a Pre-Formal party at your home, then I’d love to photograph your best friends with their families and formal partners as well. I’ll plan to come early to photograph you first with your family and formal partner and then you can sit back and relax and enjoy the Pre-Formal celebrations before heading off to enjoy the rest of the evening.
Lauren | Brisbane Girls Grammar High School Formal Photographer
Classically beautiful, elegant, sophisticated, exquisite, graceful … simply breathtaking! Lauren is all of this and so much more – a softly spoken, intelligent and gentle girl who I had the pleasure to photograph just before she left for her high school formal. We spent some time creating beautiful portraits of
Mary – Somerville House High School Ball
Mary looked stunning! She wore a superb, full length, midnight blue evening dress which sparkled almost as bright as her eyes. She was so full of happiness and excitement that day as should every girl heading off to her High School Formal. I had so much fun photographing
HELFUL INFORMATION
BEFORE YOUR HIGH SCHOOL FORMAL DAY
I love hearing all about your plans so that I can capture the details that you have carefully organised. There is often so much that goes into planning your High School Formal and I want to know all about it.
CONTEMPORARY INDIVIDUAL PORTRAITS
I’ll gently guide you into natural poses that are flattering and beautiful and create a lovely collection of both full length and closer images for you to enjoy.
CLASSIC FAMILY PHOTOS
It’s important to also have some classic, family photos taken on the day. This is a great time to gather the parents, brothers and sisters, grandparents and even best friends. These timeless portraits will be treasured for generations to come.
THE LOCATION
You may prefer to have your photos taken somewhere other than your home. There are some really beautiful locations in and around Brisbane that I can suggest.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What if I’d like more than 2 hours of photographic coverage?
That’s no problem at all. Quite often, two hours is more than enough but if you’d like me to stay longer then we can chat further and I’m happy to add extra paid time to your Collection in half hour increments.
Do you offer other products besides the Digital Files?
Absolutely! Most families ask me to create beautiful pieces of Wall Art and Keepsake Albums that tell the story of this special day. I also offer small gift prints, table frames and brag books which are lovely especially if you might like to gift close family or your formal partner with something to remember from the day.
When will our Digital Files be ready?
I aim to have your images fully edited within 2 weeks of the High School Formal. I’ll organise a private and password-protected online gallery with all your images so that you can share the photos with your family and friends. Your digital files will be provided to you on a beautiful crystal USB and ready at the same time as your online gallery.
How do we know if you’re the right photographer for us?
Great question! I’m dedicated and passionate about creating beautiful, timeless images for you to enjoy with your children and their children. I’ve been an accredited member of the Australian Institute of Professional Photography and have won many awards for my images both at State and National levels, so can feel comfortable knowing that you’re in good hands. What’s equally important is that you love the style of photos that I create!
WHAT CLIENTS ARE SAYING
“Leanne photographed our daughter, Lauren, for her year 12 high school formal and I can highly recommend the experience. Her professional, calm and friendly manner captured the most amazing photos that we will treasure forever! With all the craziness that goes along with a high school formal event; planning hair and makeup appointments and getting the ‘right’ dress it seemed a perfect opportunity to have a photographer document the event for both Lauren and the family. So very glad that we did. The photos are beautiful. The colours are so vivid and they have captured Lauren’s inner and outer qualities perfectly. Still can’t get over just how beautiful they are.”
GEORGIA
“Leanne is a fantastic, warm, kind and humorous person to work with. She makes everyone feel relaxed, happy and confident. She is a fantastic photographer as well as being graceful and humble. I have recommended Leanne to others because of her quality of work, professionalism and excellent reputation.”
VICKI
“Even though initially we had asked Leanne to photograph our daughter for her high school formal, we also knew we wanted to incorporate some family shots, as this was a very important milestone for our entire family. Leanne has a lovely, calm demeanour which made us all feel at ease. Now we have these beautiful memories documented and hanging on our wall in a striking collection of Acrylic pieces as well as a Family Storybook which is truly a precious keepsake for our family. I absolutely have no hesitation in recommending Leanne for any type of photography.”
