Hi, I’m Blaire, a mum, storyteller, light-chaser, and the face behind Blaire Slade Photography. I’m a natural light photographer based in Cairns, Queensland, and I specialise in capturing family photography, newborn sessions, maternity portraits, couples and engagements, and intimate weddings.
I offer a range of sessions that are all rooted in the same goal: capturing real emotion in beautiful, natural light.
My Cairns family photography sessions are full of movement, cuddles, and unposed connection. Perfect for wild toddlers, camera-shy parents, and everything in between.
I offer both outdoor newborn sessions and gentle in-home sessions. My newborn photography is baby-led, calm, and focused on natural moments. I also photograph glowing mums to be with maternity sessions in Cairns and surrounds.
Whether you’re dating, engaged, or celebrating 10 years, I capture authentic couple photography in beautiful outdoor locations across the Cairns region.
I photograph weddings and elopements in Cairns and beyond, with a storytelling approach that lets you relive every moment — from the details to the deep belly laughs.
If you’re planning a Cairns elopement, a Port Douglas wedding, or a destination celebration anywhere in Tropical North Queensland, I’d be honoured to be part of it.
I shoot throughout the Cairns region, including:
• Northern Beaches (Palm Cove, Trinity, Clifton)
• Redlynch, Kuranda, Tablelands
• Local parks and beaches
• Gordonvale
•Mission Beach
• In-home lifestyle sessions for newborns and families
I know the light, the weather, and the locations, and I’ll help guide you to the best time and place for your shoot.
Whether you’re planning your first family photoshoot, welcoming a new baby, or dreaming up a romantic elopement, I’m here for it. I know how fast life moves, and my goal is to help you pause it for a second.
