Studio photography allows the photographer to have ultimate creative control in a photoshoot. There are no rain checks in a photo studio. The wind doesn’t ruin anyone’s hair. The light doesn’t change. Everything can be controlled and locked down. This means studio photography offers the opportunity to create consistent images in a timely manner.
Nowadays studio photography isn’t confined to a single physical location. Portable equipment and cutting-edge technology allows the modern photographer to set up a studio anywhere, so your location becomes my studio. I bring state state-of-the-art equipment and my extensive experience to you, ensuring the highest quality results with the minimum of disruption.
I have one of the best photography studios Sydney has ever seen. OK, it may sound like an exaggeration, but that’s how I describe my services! I specialise in commercial and corporate portrait photography. Whether you’re looking for the best corporate headshot, the most flattering executive portrait, bespoke personal branding photos, or the finest photos of your people at work, I’ve got you covered.
I pride myself on my commitment to excellence and my personalised approach to each client. I collaborate closely with you to understand your unique goals, brand identity, and target audience, ensuring that my imagery aligns seamlessly with your vision. I understand the power of captivating imagery in driving business and personal success. Whether you’re a small local business or a large corporate entity, I am dedicated to helping you stand out in today’s competitive market.
I have an acute attention to detail, creative flair, and the technical expertise that allows me to deliver exceptional visuals that leave a lasting impact. If you want to experience the best studio photography Sydney has to offer, get in touch with me at Jesse Taylor Photography.
I have photographed many thousands of people during my career, people with different stories in life. And as your studio photographer, it is my job to bring your story to life and tell it through the help of my finely crafted photographs.
I have worked with people from all walks of life: from artists to scientists, from the shop floor to the top floor, from students to professors, and a whole lot more. All sorts of folk from all sorts of places have been inside my photo studio. The images I create with them have been used to celebrate, promote, and increase their brand value and popularity.
So, whatever role you play in your industry, I have the right experience and skills to help you share your brand story with your target audience.
Shooting outdoors offers many benefits, but we are always at the mercy of Mother Nature. Weather happens, particularly when you don’t want it to. The major benefits of studio photography are:
When you’re inside a photo studio, you won’t have to worry about the lighting because your photographer can provide them. There is consistent lighting and background inside a photo studio.
Another great thing about studio photography is that you don’t have to worry about the weather changing around you. The studio offers protection from sun, wind, run, hail, sleet and snow, and you even get to decide what the temperature is!
When you’re outdoors, you often can’t guarantee privacy. If you’re in a public space anyone can watch your photo shoot. However, working inside a photo studio can help you have the privacy you need. This helps camera-shy people feel more comfortable and means confidential information cannot be seen.
Jesse Taylor Photography provides only the best and highest quality studio portraits. Whether you want to have your headshot photo, business group photos, or brand portraits, I can help you all with them.
I have other Photography services that include: Profile Shot Photography Sydney, Women’s Headshot Photography Sydney, and Industrial Portrait Photography Sydney.

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 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 portraits and corporate headshots 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 commercial portrait or corporate 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 their 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.
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.
For individuals and small teams shot at your location, corporate headshot fees start at $600.
For larger teams, fees start at $1,200.
Please contact me for a detailed quote.
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 portrait or headshot for you. 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 a photo 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.
