Cabarita Editorial Style Realestate Photography for White Fox Realestate
This is the third shoot I completed for Whitefox Real Estate since being on board as one of their preferred photographers.
It is a Cabarita home only minutes from the beach, it was such a great shoot and incredible home to capture.

Gold Coast Real Estate Photography for Whitefox Realestate
This beautiful Palm Beach newly renovated home was a pleasure to photograph for Whitefox Real Estate. The owner, Lauren had done an incredible job of styling this home ready for sale. And the renovations were stunning!
We spent 6 hrs at this home (with assistant Kelly in tow) there were 24 spaces in total to capture, I was able to capture and deliver 60 photos for the 6 hr shoot package (no additional costs for this one, as the styling was so great and so easy to work with, meant we were able to achieve a lot more then usual). And also there wasn’t any complicated editing to do.
You can check out the listing (as this house is currently for sale) here.
BURLEIGH HEADS INTERIOR DESIGN PHOTOGRAPHY FOR KILN DESIGN
Kathryn of Kiln Design is based in Canberra, and this is her second project here on the Gold Coast that she has asked me to photograph for her. She’s been one of those people I meet and instantly felt like i’d down her for years. Such a pleasure to work with, and I’m so glad she fly up again for this shoot, to do the shoot with me.
We meet at the property before sunrise, to go over the shoot plan, and be able to get started as soon as that morning light hit. The focus was on the kitchens and bathrooms, as Kiln Design did all the finishes and fixtures.
Using a variety of natural sunlight and photography lighting of this project, see if you can pick which photographs I have used natural sunlight and which photographs I have used photography lighting for.
Gold Coast Architecture and Interior Photography for Builder, Highlife Homes
Gold Coast Architecture and Interior Photography for Highlife Homes.
We will always be flexible for weather, and rearrange shoots for optional weather conditions but sometimes the show must simply go on because the clients needs the photos ASAP.
We were lucky on this shoot day, that the thick cloud cover broke at different times and we were able to capture the way the sunlight was hitting the home. I had to be fast, set up whatever we could while the cloud was there and just be ready to get each shot quickly when the clouds decided to give us a break 🙌🏼
I use Willy Weather and the BOM Gov app to keep a close eye on the weather always, and know when and if the cloud cover is going to break with enough time to capture some golden magic. I also use the Sun Surveyor app to help me predict where and when the sun is going to hit (to plan my shoots but also on the shoot)
This 3 story townhouse, was captured in complete in 7 hrs.
I absolutely love teaching my interior photography skills to my mentoring students. It’s been such a joy I didn’t know I would love so much, realising just how much I have learnt in the last 10 years and how much I have to share.
Tweed Heads Architecture and Interior Photography for Tiny Home Builder, Coast Modular
Take a look behind the scenes, as I play with lighting and styling props to get the shots just right, on my Instagram @tanikablair_photography
I’ve photographed 2 of Coast Modulars tiny homes so far, and looking forward to the next one (which is a 2 bedroom modular home).
We were able to use natural sunlight on the one of these, the first one was still in the working shed, when we photographed it, hence the need to fake the sunlight. I can’t wait to show off what this exciting new business has been working so hard on .
Why you should hire an editorial style photographer over a real estate photographer
What do editorial style photographers do, that real estate photographers don’t.
Now I’m not saying all real estate photographs, but the low budget real estate photographers, are generally not going to do the following, and an editorial style photographer will (and I always will):
1/they’ll get to know you ahead of the shoot, and what you are really hopping for out of the final photos of the property.
2/ asses the sunlight direction, write out a shoot plan, with the sunlight being the no. 1 priority … this means capturing the property in it’s best natural sunlight scenes.

3/ style to camera, they’ll often bring their own homewares props, but will also use what the home has available, they will be using a tripod, and tethering their camera to an iPad or laptop, so that they can walk into the composition, see live what they are about to capture and tweak every homewares and furniture piece, to make for a more appealing photo (if needed, and time allows).
4/ they’ll use fresh flowers and greenery to add warmth, feel and mood to the home.
5/ they use more appealing compositions, having things blurred in the foreground, drawing the eye into the focal point. This really sets the scene and vibe of the property.
6/ they’ll use human figures in the photo, to add to the scale of the portions of the home, and for viewers to imagine themselves in the space.
7/ they’ll think of styling details, like adding ice to the glasses of water, to add more ‘life’ to the photos, with out needing to actually put a person in the photo if it’s not possible for the shoot.
8/ you are definitely more liking to get published using an editorial style photographer over a real estate photographer
Have you got any questions about the difference between a traditional real estate photographer and editorial style photographer, please don’t hesitate to get in contact, I’d love to chat.

Burleigh Heads Interior Photography for Interior Designer Kiln Design
I was thrilled to be asked by Katherine, of Kiln Design, to not only photograph this project for her, but also source and provide the styling (Katherine is based in Canberra, and flu up for the shoot day, so it just made more sense for me to do the styling for this one).
The home was empty (and part of it still a construction zone) … but you wouldn’t know would you? … very happy with our efforts, to capture this project before the home owners were moving in.
Another cloudy day for this shoot (which I love, when the view isn’t needed for the client) … we were able to use my professional photography lighting to add more lighting were it was needed (usually outside, aimed through windows, so it looks realistic).
Such a beautiful project in Burleigh Heads. Head over to Kiln Designs website to see more.

The stools were hired from Tailored Space Interiors, every other ‘prop’ is from my own collection (my car was very full! haha)
Gold Coast Real Estate Photography for AJK Property
Adding the ‘feel’ to this Gold Coast apartment for its real estate photography for AJK Property. Not just your average Real Estate photography, I pride myself on taking a more editorial approach, to really capture the beauty of each individual property, no matter how grand.
