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.
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.

Jefferson Lane, Palm Beach Real Estate Photography for AJK Property
I was thrilled to get the call from these lovely home owners. I photographed this house over 3 years ago for The Beach Furniture, as the home owners had purchased a variety of furniture pieces from this local store.
I was thrilled to get the call from these lovely home owners. I photographed this house over 3 years ago for The Beach Furniture, as the home owners had purchased a variety of furniture pieces from this local store.
They were now selling the property, and wasn’t happy with the ‘standard’ real estate photography they received, but remembered they liked the photography I had done of their home over 3 years ago … I’ve been getting this call a lot lately … home owners wanting a more ‘editorial’ feel for real estate … to capture the essence of the home, to spend the time waiting for the right light, styling the space to suit the feeling of the home, the position of the home and of course the location.
So for this job, we started with a sunrise shot of the exterior that faces the beach, I then styled up the entire interior, using pieces from my personal prop collection (and the car jam packed with home styling accessories).
All in all this home took 7 hrs to photograph.

And a couple of family shots of the home owners as well, to remember their time in this beautiful beach side home.
“We accidentally came across Tanika when a company organised a shoot at our house for a range of products we had purchased. We were so in love with her photography that when we decided to put our house on the market years later, we hunted for hours to find the blog the photos were used for to get her details.
Since then we have used her for a second property shoot and also recommended her to a friend who is a real estate agent, who then subsequently used her photography for her own house!
Could not recommend Tanika enough!”
