Kingscliff New Build Architectural Photography for Design Scout Interiors

A peek at the house that broke the record … this Tweed Coast home sold for just under $7M, breaking the record and selling off the market as well. Sold by Nick Witheriff of LJ Hooker.

I was honoured to be the only photographer to photograph this home, I captured the work of Jacinta Platt of Design Scout Interiors, who worked with the builder on all the finishes, and did the interior, furniture and homewares.

The home also features stunning work by Stone Style. Build by the incredible, Jayson Pate Design.

If you are reading this and were associated with the build of this home, I have a gallery of 100 photos to browse, if you would like to make a purchase to use the photos for your business. Just email me at: hello@tanikablair.com.au

Ballina Holiday Accomodation Photography for Ramanda Hotel Ballina

We have loved doing these shoots, for hotel businesses. A 2nd level to ‘Airbnb photography’, which we have become so well known for.

A pleasure to do a sunrise and sunset shoot for the Ramanda Hotel in Ballina. Coming equipped with lighting equipment for a cloudy couple of hours when we didn’t have the sun … and styling props, which were all ‘holiday’ themed … and didn't take away from the actual look of the hotel rooms.

We completed 5 different rooms for this hotel, as well as pool shots.

Take a browse of our favourite shots from this shoot.

Northern Rivers - Bump Shoot - Pregnancy Shoot for Jaiden

For a variety of reasons, we opted to do this shoot at home. We planned for a sunrise shoot on their balcony, but the weather was overcast and we just couldn’t keep putting it off. I am so happy with what we were able to achieve when this Mumma was dreaming of a sunrise beach session … all the moody feels, and it was all meant to be. A beautiful pregnant Mumma, radiant … so close to welcoming her second born.

Don’t miss out on those pregnancy photos (I did and boy do I regret it) … you’ll want to remember your amazing body, creating life inside of you, it’s certainly something to document. Don’t give up, get those shots! (no matter the weather or circumstances, make it happen)

Byron Bay Hinterland Engagment Photography for Erin + Jack

hese two beautiful people, are getting married in April. My very stylish friend Erin, is a perfectionist, and asked me to photograph both of them, to be able to use the photos for their wedding website invitation. (well worth the time and effort) to make this match the aesthetic of the website pages.

With her creative direction, we were able to bring her vision to life.

We actually did the shoot, at their wedding location to be. Very exciting to be an invited guest and get to see it ahead of time. I can’t wait to attend what I’m sure will be a beautiful event for these lovers.
