Our Process

1

Pre-shoot consultation

Every great image starts with understanding your vision. Before the shoot, we’ll chat about your goals, style preferences, and wardrobe options — whether you’re after a sleek corporate portrait, a creative editorial look, or a natural lifestyle feel. This ensures the final images reflect you authentically and confidently.
2

Location

Choose the setting that best tells your story — our Marrickville studio for polished, controlled lighting and backdrops, or a hand-picked on-site location across Sydney’s Inner West or CBD for atmosphere and context. We’ll help guide you to the environment that suits your personality and brand best.
3

Session

On shoot day, relax — we’ll handle everything. Expect professional lighting, expert posing direction, and a comfortable, collaborative experience. Multiple looks and angles are captured so you have a versatile collection of images that work across press, web, and social platforms.
4

Delivery

After your session, your images are carefully edited to enhance tone, colour, and detail — never over-processed, always timeless. You’ll receive a curated gallery of high-resolution photos, optimised for both print and digital use, ready to elevate your portfolio, website, or marketing materials.

Trusted Clients & Experience

We’ve worked with leading names across industries including Microsoft, Spotify, Salesforce, TikTok and Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras — delivering professional results with creative flair and a track record of client satisfaction.

FAQs

How far in advance should I book?
We recommend booking two to four weeks ahead, especially for corporate events or weekends, to secure your preferred date and time. Last-minute sessions can sometimes be accommodated depending on availability.


Can you travel outside Sydney?
Yes — while we’re based in Marrickville, we regularly photograph across Greater Sydney and interstate. Travel fees may apply for shoots outside the metro area.


Do you provide both colour and black & white images?
Absolutely. All sessions include professionally edited, full-colour images, with select black & white versions provided for creative variety.


How many photos will I receive?
The number depends on the session type, but you’ll receive a curated collection of high-quality images — typically between 20–80 photos — all fully edited and ready for use.


Can you help with wardrobe or styling advice?
Yes. During your pre-shoot consultation, we’ll discuss outfit choices and colours that complement your setting, tone, and brand. We can also recommend stylists or hair and makeup artists if desired.


What’s your turnaround time?
For headshots and portraits, images are typically delivered within 3–5 business days. Event galleries and weddings may take a little longer depending on volume, but we always provide a few sneak previews shortly after your shoot.


Do you supply images for both print and digital use?
Yes — all final images are delivered in both high-resolution (for print) and web-optimised formats, perfect for websites, social media, and marketing materials.


Can you match my brand’s style or guidelines?
Definitely. We often work with corporate clients who have existing brand palettes and image styles. We’ll review your guidelines and tailor the shoot to align seamlessly with your brand identity.


What if I’m camera-shy?
You’re not alone — most people feel that way at first. We specialise in helping clients relax with gentle direction and natural conversation so your portraits feel confident and genuine, not staged.
