Awkward Best Friends Photoshoot, Thornlands Studio

80s Vibes, Big Hair & Best Friend Energy ✨💖

Some photo sessions are all about looking polished and picture-perfect… and then there are the sessions where the goal is to embrace the weird, celebrate friendship, and have an absolute blast. This was definitely one of those!

These two best friends were ready to channel their inner 80s icons, complete with neon pink outfits, leg warmers, colourful hair accessories, and plenty of attitude. From the moment the music started, they were laughing, striking outrageous poses, and fully committing to the awkwardness—and that's exactly what made this session so much fun. If you want to see more, check out some behind the scenes hilarity on my Instagram here!

One of the things I love most about my Awkward Photoshoots is that there are no rules. Whether you want to recreate a cringeworthy family portrait, celebrate a friendship, or simply create something completely unique, every session is designed around having fun. The best images often come from the moments where everyone is laughing so hard they can barely hold the pose.

These sessions aren't just about taking photos—they're about making memories you'll laugh about for years to come. And judging by the giggles echoing through the studio, I'd say these two absolutely nailed it.

If you've ever wanted to relive the 80s (or experience them for the first time!), grab your best friend, raid the op shop for the brightest clothes you can find, and let's create something wonderfully awkward together.

Studio sessions take place in my Thornlands studio, South Brisbane, and are perfect for friends, siblings, families, or anyone who doesn't take themselves too seriously.
