Meet your photographers

G’day! We are Judy & Xana, your Sunny Coast wife duo: neuro-spicy and professional good-vibe suppliers. We are here to capture all the good stuff, all the belly laughs, happy tears and everything in between. We keep the awkward posing to a minimum and just focus on allowing you to be yourself and capture true emotion.

Judy is your photographer, hiding behind the camera during wedding ceremonies so nobody can see her crying and Xana is on content creation and can be found running around behind the scenes getting everyone’s stories told. Together we are just 2 of your mates joining you during your wedding/big life moment while also capturing the moments forever.

We are set on making every experience for every person a safe one where you can feel supported and seen (overstimulated? we probs are too). Our friends who are LGBTQIA+ and neurodiverse: we see you and accept you exactly as you are.

So whether you are tying the knot, have a new baby or want to just capture some everyday chaos, we are all in! Let’s hang out, make some memories and probably have a few laughs along the way.

Bookings are open for 2025 & 2026

Based on Sunshine Coast Australia but will happily take a cheeky road trip anywhere in AUS

Kind words that definitely made us cry..

  • We had such a wonderful experience with Judy and Xana from Judy Mann Photography! They truly captured our family in the most beautiful and natural wayβ€”these are memories we’ll treasure forever. The whole session felt so relaxed and full of laughter. We never felt awkward or unsure, because they gently guided us every step of the way. It was such a comfortable environment, and it really shows in the photos. Highly recommend for anyone looking to capture authentic, heartfelt moments!

  • Judy and Xana were booked for our wedding photos and the second we met them, we knew we would be in for a great time and some quality images! They gave us an excellent price, threw in a free engagement shoot and made us feel very comfortable. They are super easy to talk to, responsive, creative and all round top notch ladies! We have just received our engagement pictures and both my partner and I are so happy with the product!

  • Judy and Xana were amazing! We had a photoshoot at Shorncliffe and the whole experience was so much fun. I was nervous as I’m a bit of an awkward person and don’t love being photographed but they both made us feel so comfortable, we all had a blast! We had our 4 year old daughter and Xana made sure she had the best time. Didn’t want the shoot to end! The photos are absolutely stunning and it didn’t feel like an awkward posed shoot. Thank you both!
