I am a commercial portrait photographer based in Sydney. I specialise in creating images that capture my client’s brand personality. Whether it’s in house talent such as key staff, or professional talent hired for the assignment, I bring out the very best in that person.
I am able to build a relationship with someone quickly and to communicate what I need from them, so that they feel comfortable in front of my camera. I pride myself on being able to deliver outstanding results with the minimum of fuss.
I am trusted by iconic Australian and global brands to deliver the images that become the face of their business.
I offer professional commercial and corporate photography services to clients across a broad range of industries.
The vast majority of my work is undertaken at client premises or client sites, and I can also access a range of studios and other commercial spaces where required.
I have developed relationships with a range of highly skilled and experienced professionals in related industries, including hair and make up artists (HMUAs), stylists, assistants, digi techs, and videographers.
It’s the combination of technical expertise, creative vision, and building an elite team that enables me to help businesses and individuals stand out in a crowded marketplace and create a lasting impression on their audience.
I’d love to have a chat about how I can help you – just get in touch and we can take it from there.

I am based in Bellevue Hill but as a commercial portrait and corporate headshot photographer I do most of my work on location and bring my mobile studio to you.
No! As a commercial portrait and corporate headshot photographer I do most of my work at my clients’ locations. This means there’s no disruption to your working day, and your valuable time is spent where it matters most.
I shoot commercial and corporate photography across the Greater Sydney area and regularly travel further afield. I have clients across NSW, Australia and internationally.
I hear you! We all have our hang ups, the things we don’t like about ourselves and hate seeing in photos. And the sad truth is, we’re all much too hard on ourselves. Other people see us differently, and always much more generously. Dove tapped into this a few years ago in a marketing campaign and while we might be sceptical about their true motive (selling more product!), it does powerfully highlight that we aren’t always kind to ourselves.
I see the best in you and bring this out in my work, giving you a portrait or headshot you’re proud to use.
Bring a few different outfits that have different cuts, styles and colours. Think about what kind of statement you want to make.
I can arrange a hair and make-up artist to be on site for the shoot. Please note that a full makeover takes 30-45 minutes per person at a minimum. Often a quick touch up service for both men and women is all that’s needed.
Even without a professional HMUA on the shoot, I know a few tricks to help you look great (think powder, blotting tissue, lint roller, hair spray, etc).
It’s up to you!
Some of my clients like to use the photos as they are while others prefer a light touch up to help them look their very best.
A light touch up includes removing blemishes, fixing any skin shine, tidying flyaway hairs, smoothing away signs of tiredness, subtly whitening teeth and brightening eyes, and fixing any marks or creases in clothing. The aim is to make you look as you do on your best day, when you’re well rested, well hydrated, and relaxed.
And some clients like to go a bit further, for example changing clothing colour, slimming, making them look younger, or sometimes older!
Just about anything can be done, but it’s only done on your request.
Quite simply, I focus on you. I don’t offer a cookie-cutter service, working to a formula that doesn’t account your individuality. You’re unique, so I create the best corporate photos for you and your brand. I work with you to find the right pose and the best expression that brings out your very best. I pride myself on giving you photos you can be proud of. I work really hard to do this as quickly as possible, knowing that many people don’t enjoy the experience.
You deserve to get great photos with the minimum or fuss – that’s what I do.
Fees for location shoots start at $600.
Please contact me to discuss your project in more detail and for a quote.
There’s no strict definition for either term, and they are often used interchangeably along with similar terms such as professional photos or business photos.
Broadly, a headshot is more about what someone looks like and is generally a tighter shot of the head and shoulders. It is often shot against a plain background and the subject is usually looking directly at the camera. On most social media and email platforms the photo is circular.
A portrait meanwhile might show more of a person, both literally and figuratively. Crucially, a portrait will often seek to communicate more than just what someone looks like and tell us more about who they are. The setting is often environmental, such as a place of work, and might tell us about their job or role.
Headshots are well suited to social media profiles, staff photos on client communications, internal comms, or staff directories. Portraits might be used to tell a more in depth story about specific individuals and are typically used in external communications such as annual reports, PR or marketing materials.
Once I know how the photos will be used we can discuss different options to deliver the images you need.
