That’s the question that sparked Grain & Weave.
Since those early days in 2016 we’ve grown into a Sydney-wide team of passionate photographers and creatives who specialise in relaxed, natural family photography, captured in the most meaningful place of all — your home. It’s where all the real family memories happen: first steps, long nights and spontaneous laughter…
Our team includes talent from some of Australia’s leading studios, chosen as much for their warmth as their skill. Behind the lens and behind the scenes, we work with care to make the entire experience feel personal, professional, and genuinely enjoyable.
As well as top-shelf photography we offer family-friendly bundles of digital images and handcrafted artwork — made in Queensland using natural timber, stone and canvas — to help you preserve your memories in a way that’s as lasting as the moments themselves.
Thousands of families have trusted Grain & Weave to tell their story, and many return year after year, sharing us with those they love. Because for us, it’s never just about the photos — it’s about something real.
