Tanika is a trusted interior, lifestyle and commercial photographer with over a decade of experience. Coming from a background in interior design, it’s her styling abilities, knowledge and obsession of the interior design industry that sets her apart as an interior photographer. Based in the Northern Rivers, she is travelling from Byron Bay to Brisbane regularly, and is available to travel interstate. Priding herself on her attention to detail and perfectionist tendencies, all editing is done in-house, so Tanika has full control of the end result. Tanika is a natural light photographer but also comes equipped with a full lighting kit, and all the gear and knowledge you would expect from a professional photography studio. Having the backup of lighting equipment in a climate that has the most unpredictable weather can be a lifesaver when you’ve invested hours and money into a photo shoot. Though natural sunlight will always win, Tanika will endeavour to capture each shot in the best light available in the time frame given. Styling for a home is different to styling for a photo, Tanika is trusted by a variety of leading interior designers and stylists, to style their work herself specifically for each photograph, this attention to detail is what truly makes the difference to quality interior and product photography. The combination of composition, lighting, styling and detailed editing bringing a winning receipe to Tanika’s photography.

Videography
+ $500 per 1 minute of video creation
The costs, covers the extra time in editing, putting the videos together, ready for use on your
website, email newsletters and your social media (posts and stories). I have a gimble and slider for this
work, to make nice smooth videos. Unfortunately, I can’t guarantee the video work will look
identical to the photography work in the way of light and colours as it is a different editing
process but as always, I will try my very best.
If you are interested in Drone videography or photography, please don't hesitate to ask.

FAQ - frequently asked questions
-
I won’t just turn up with a camera and a few lenses, I am equip with a full lighting kit, many many backdrops, reflectors, diffusers, v-flats, gimbal, microphones etc … and of course the knowledge of using it all correctly and to it’s best advantage for each shoot. No need to hire a studio, and all the gear … I have it all!
-
Of course! coming from an interior design background, and having years of experience in photo styling, my clients usually want me doing the styling as well as the photography. This all needs to be discussed ahead of the shoot, if a scout of the shoot location isn’t possible ahead of the shoot, simple iPhone photos of the space would be highly recommended so I can make sure I am brining the right style of props and I’ve allowed enough time to style the space before photographing it. I have an in-house prop collection available for hire for shoots (+$300) or if a specific look is needed, of course I can source the right pieces for your job for an added cost.
-
Depending on the style of shoot, I will do the first half of my editing work on all of the photos and then load the images into Pixie Set (a similar online tool to Dropbox but way better!) I will email a link to you, and from there you will be able to browse all of the photos (unfinished), using the ‘hearts’ you will be able to create a favourites list that will automatically be sent to me, I will edit in complete the photos that you choose, and within 2-3 weeks of the shoot day, the finished photos will be loaded into Pixieset for you, where you can easily download the files (in high res and web res) to your own devices (this is when I would highly recommend backing up the files on a separate hard drive, USB, loading into your own Dropbox folders or google drive etc … it would be best to save them on both your computer and phone so that you have the photos easily accessible on your phone to post to social media. The files will be available to download (through Pixie Set) for one month only. After this, a fee will be charged each time I have to re-deliver the photos.
-
I will send you an invoice for the full amount of the shoot and photos purchased when I send the completed edited photos to you and you then have 2 weeks to pay the invoice in complete via bank transfer.
-
Generally, I work off a 2-3 week turnaround… but if you are in need of a quicker delivery, please notify me at the time of booking the shoot, so that I schedule my week accordingly. An extra fee may apply.
-
I will keep the files safe for 12 months only, a re-delivery fee will be charged if accidental loss or destruction of the photos by the Client after delivery occurs.
-
When you purchase a shoot and photos, you are paying for one license, for your business only to use the photos, other businesses can get in contact with me to purchase a license to use the photos if they would like. (and if you are happy for me to on-sell the photos) Please don’t hesitate to ask if you would like more information regarding this. Sharing around on social media can get tricky, but whatever you are comfortable with, and is good for your business, is good for me.
-
Yes! This is definitely possible, if there are two or more businesses (for example a renovation project, the tiler and the benchtop maker both want photos of the finished home) you can organise the shoot together, and I will give you 2 licences etc to use the photos. But this does need to be worked out before the day of the shoot, and all briefs, and shot lists from both businesses need to be clear before the shoot.
-
Yes I usually use an iPad, that is tethered to my camera, meaning you can see what is being captured by the camera, live on a bigger screen, so the styling can be tweaked, and other changes can be made to the compositions, that we possibly wouldn’t see/notice on the small camera screen. I do also have a laptop, laptop stand set up for tethering too, which is generally used when working with a big team in a studio setting. But the iPad works well for most shoots, as it’s so easy to carry around a home, and not awkward like the laptop and stand can be. The perks of the lap top and is being able to edit on the shoot, to show clients closer to what the photo will look like in the end.
-
Yes as I am talking to lots of different people in the industry all the time, I often have access to a lot of different locations, please always ask if you are in need of a location for your shoot.
-
For smaller products, finishes, beauty products, food products etc … I have a home photography studio I usually use for smaller products, this way I have everything I need already there, backdrops, lighting, props and to be able to use beautiful natural light as well (knowing where it hits at what time of day well). Rather than you having to hire out a photography studio. You are welcome to work with me on your shoot, in my home photography studio.
“We were so impressed with photos that Tanika produced for us. She was a pleasure to deal with and we would highly recommend her to other building companies wishing to have portfolio photos taken.”
“Tanika completed a photoshoot for one of our recent renovation projects. From start to finish Tanika was great to work with and took the time to understand our vision and the key shots and detail we wanted to capture. We are so happy with the final result and the magazine quality photographs produced. Tanika has great attention to detail and this is evident in every shot. On the day of the shoot Tanika and her assistant were lovely to work with, we had a blast!
I highly recommend Tanika and look forward to working with her again in future.”

“Tanika is one of a kind Photographer. As an Interior Designer, getting photos taken at the end of all my hard work its the cherry on top, It’s the reward I get for the hours upon hours of work. That’s why to me its so important to have the right photographer to help showcase and capture my work. Tanika is a true natural talent with her photography skills.

Thanks so much for everything and I would definitely recommend using her for your next project without a doubt.”
