Coolangatta Interior Photography for Design Scout Interiors

Another stunning job by the Design Scout Interiors team, this time I much more local job, this one is in Coolangatta, looking over Kirra beach.

We did this over 2 afternoons, rather than one full day, making use of all the natural sunlight this home gets, facing north-west.

Currumbin Interior Photography for Interior Designer, Bligh Ramsey

I was in love as soon as I walked through the doors of this property in April 2024, Sarah had done such a beautiful job of the interiors, a quick 3 hr shoot turned into a 5 hr shoot, as I just couldn’t help myself, there were so many stunning angles.

I would love to see this gorgeous project of Sarah’s published in print, so sending all the good energy out there that I can make that happen for her.

We love showing off this beautiful project. We shared a reel on instagram, head on over there to take a look into what goes into this kind of shoot 😊

Gold Coast Interior Design Photography for PLK Design

When assessing the rooms you need to photograph, it’s important to take note of the lighting conditions. One side of the house may have a warm tone, while the other side may appear colder with a blue tinge. It’s best to avoid capturing the rooms with cool, blue lighting as much as possible. Instead, wait for the natural sunlight to move throughout the day, transforming the ‘blue rooms’ into warm, inviting spaces.
Understanding and adjusting colour temperature can greatly influence the mood and ambiance of your photographs.

Take a peek into a shoot recently completed for @plkdesign, it was an absolute pleasure working with Peter for the day, to capture his latest project.

Let’s talk lighting for photography.

When assessing the rooms you need to photograph, it’s important to take note of the lighting conditions. One side of the house may have a warm tone, while the other side may appear colder with a blue tinge. It’s best to avoid capturing the rooms with cool, blue lighting as much as possible. Instead, wait for the natural sunlight to move throughout the day, transforming the ‘blue rooms’ into warm, inviting spaces.
Understanding and adjusting colour temperature can greatly influence the mood and ambiance of your photographs.

By timing your shots to capture the rooms when they are bathed in warm natural light, you can enhance the overall ambiance and colour temperature of the space. This attention to lighting can greatly contribute to the visual appeal and mood of your photographs.

Before a shoot, I will ask the client for a floor plan and the address of the property, I will then use an app called Sun Surveyor to predict the natural sunlight for each room of the house. I’ll write out a plan of attack for the day, down to each hour/room. Sometimes the plan will change, but this gives us a good base going into the day, to know if we are on time, or running late, to work with all the best lighting for the day.

What would you love to know about interior photography? I’m an open book, and curious what questions you have?

Burleigh Heads New Build Architectural Photography for Designer, Jim Mullins

This newly built Burleigh Heads home was captured over two professional architectural photoshoots … including a sunrise session to capture the changing light of the streetside front exterior of this family home. The variety of textured finishes creates beautiful shadows across the facade. This is the 4th project I have photographed for Jim Mullins, always a pleasure to see his work in person.

Broadbeach Interior Photography for Interior Designer Bhodz Projects

My gosh have I enjoyed working with Bhodi these past few months … we’ve captured 3 of his stunning interior design projects together. He is just as much of a perfectionist as I am, we are taking our time, styling every little detail to camera … and wow! we are both so happy with the outcome. Very much a collaborative effort.

I’m absolutely honoured to photograph Bhodi’s interior design work, an emerging Gold Coast interior designer with so much talent that is doing stunning work.

The below project is the second one we captured together, it is a Broadbeach apartment. We had another perfect cloudy day for the shoot, defusing the light beautifully, and allowing me to use just one photography light, so we could control the lighting so nicely.

Check out more of Bhodi’s work here.

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.

Brisbane Interior Photography for Interior Designer Marina Hirst Interiors

Shoot no. 4 for Marina Hirst Interiors, this time photographing their Tennyson interior design project. Another cloudy day (definitely like those best when photographing interiors, where the view isn’t a feature of the project)

Brisbane Interior Photography for Interior Designer Marina Hirst Interiors

The shoot started off on such a high, interior designer, Marina took me out for breakfast before we started which was so lovely. It’s so wonderful when clients become friends. Photographing Marina’s Chelmer project this time round, a little more challenging then the other shoots had been. We were given a much sunnier day, but a home that doesn’t get a whole stack of natural light coming through. This just means the shoot does slow down quite a bit, with the added lighting tasks, to light each shot the right way.

Surfers Paradise Interior Photography for Interior Designer Marina Hirst Interiors

The second of 4 projects I photographed for Marina Hirst Interiors in the last few months. A beautiful Surfers Paradise apartment.

A stormy day we were able to use to our advantage. Using one photography light outside on the balcony, and moving it to suit each shot, and being able to style the light and really have control of it. I was able to spend the time on this shoot, to style to camera for every photograph (i’m always excited when a client allows me the time to do style to camera, to makes for such better shots).

Always a pleasure to photograph such beautiful interiors for very talented interior designers.
