📸 2026 SO FAR — BRISBANE THROUGH THE LENS

What a year we’ve had already! ❤️

From early alarms chasing sunrise to golden-hour sunsets, city architecture, creative shoots, macro, wildlife and even looking up at the stars — Brisbane Through The Lens has certainly been busy!

So far in 2026, we’ve captured:

🌅 Shorncliffe Sunrise
🔥 Fire Twirling
🚪 Brisbane C*D Doors & Architecture
🌻 Sunflower Photography
🏙️ James Street Photo Walk
🔭 Eye Spy / Sky Deck
🌇 Wellington Point Sunset
🌉 Kangaroo Point Sunrise
📷 Vintage MoB Photography
🎄 Christmas in July – Sunset Rooftop
🌸 Macro Photography – Roma Street Parkland
✨ Astrophotography – Mt Tamborine

And we’re not finished yet! 📸

What I love most isn’t just the photographs we take. It’s the people behind the cameras — the conversations, laughs, friendships, shared knowledge and encouragement that happen along the way.

Whether you shoot professionally, are learning your camera, use your phone, or simply love getting out and seeing Brisbane differently, there’s a place for you here.

A huge thank you to everyone who has joined a session, shared their knowledge, helped another photographer, or simply turned up with enthusiasm. You are what makes this community what it is. ❤️

And with Birds & Wildlife at Forest Lake, Jacaranda season at UQ and more still to come, there are plenty more memories waiting to be captured.

Here’s to the rest of 2026 — more adventures, more friendships and, of course… more photos! 📸✨

Hi everyone,

We’re excited to introduce something new for our Brisbane Through the Lens community – our Special Monthly Photography Challenge!

Each month from July through December, we’ll have a different photography theme to inspire you to get out with your camera, try new techniques, and see the world from a different perspective.

Whether you’re joining our meetups or shooting on your own, everyone is encouraged to take part. There are no prizes—just an opportunity to challenge yourself, share your creativity, and connect with fellow photographers.

📅 Monthly Themes

📸 July – Leading Lines
Use natural or architectural lines to draw the viewer’s eye through your image.

💧 August – Reflections
Capture reflections in water, glass, mirrors, or any unexpected surface.

🌆 September – Blue Hour
Photograph the beautiful light before sunrise or after sunset.

🏃 October – Motion
Freeze the action or embrace movement with creative motion blur.

⚫ November – Monochrome
Create compelling black and white images that focus on light, texture, and contrast.

🪟 December – Hidden Brisbane
Show us a side of Brisbane that most people don’t see—hidden laneways, local gems, unique perspectives, or secret locations.

📱 Share Your Photos

We’d love to see your entries throughout each month!

Tag us on Instagram using .the.lens or share your images in our Facebook group Brisbane Through The Lens. We’ll be featuring and resharing some of our favourite images on our social media stories and posts throughout the month.

There are no strict rules—just have fun, be creative, and enjoy the process. Every photographer sees the world differently, and we can’t wait to see your unique perspective.

Happy shooting, and we look forward to seeing your first challenge images!

🔥 Fire Twirl Photography Session – What a Night! 🔥

What an incredible turnout for our recent fire twirl photography session—such a popular event and amazing to see so many of you come along to create, connect, and capture something special.

A quick apology to our members for the last-minute location change. We arrived to find an unexpected market still continuing at Shorncliffe, but everyone adapted so well and we still managed to make the most of the night 🙌

🎥If you haven’t seen it yet, check out the behind the scenes on YouTube below—such a great recap of the night!

🔥 A huge thank you to my hubby, Greg for stepping in as our fire twirl artist and model for the night. Your skill, patience, and energy made the session what it was!

So grateful for this community—great vibes, great people, and a night full of creativity. Can’t wait for the next one!I

Join us on meetup for the next fab sessions! 📸
