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.

Broadwalk - Vanessa Wood Interiors

It’s always a fun day when photographing Vanessa Wood Interior’s work. The stunning Burleigh apartment in the Boardwalk building was no exception.

It’s always a fun day when photographing Vanessa Wood Interior’s work. The stunning Burleigh apartment in the Boardwalk building was no exception.

First shoot I’ve worked on tethered (camera connected to the lap top) and the results speak for themselves … we loved being able to work more as a team on this shoot. It meant less photos, but photos we were 100% happy with.

Ask me about photographing your next shoot tethered, it’s game changing and I should of done this years ago.

Bardon Abode

This beautiful colourful home is the work of the home owner, Imigen … isn’t she talented? … no training in the field of interior design, just raw talent.

This beautiful colourful home is the work of the home owner, Imigen … isn’t she talented? … no training in the field of interior design, just raw talent.

I was lucky enough to get introduced to Imigen, by Jamie & Tim, from 4D Renovations, they did the renovations of the Bardon Abode, main bathroom/laundry and ensuite (stunning bathrooms!) … So I visited the property to shoot their renovation work … and was back their again the very next day to use their pool area for a outdoor fabric photo shoot … a very last minute shoot location change … a very lucky one to happen upon Imigen’s home the day before.

I then returned the week after … to shoot the entire home, for the home owners to advertise it for photo shoot hire. And to of course, show it off to all of you lovely people.

I’m sure many of you will appreciate Imigen’s work, making her families home into this beautiful oasis.

Let Imigen and I know what your favourite part about her home is.

I love all the colour! the eclectic mix of furniture … full of interesting lines, and a variety of textures (especially that entry table, and the bookshelf) … pared back by the simple interior finishes.

Bardon Abode is now available for photo shoot hire via Pure Locations.

Pacific Fair Interior Photography for Sabo Skirt by Archie Bolden

It’s pretty great when you get to work with friends … this photography job was for Hayley of Archie Bolden. Hayley & I grow up together and I was so pleased when she decided to study interior architecture. And now I am just in awe of her work, and the quickly made success she is having because of her glorious talents.

Hayley & I grow up together and I was so pleased when she decided to study interior architecture. And now I am just in awe of her work, and the quickly made success she is having because of her glorious talents.

I was over joyed to photograph one of Archie Bolden’s latest projects, the interior fit out for Sabo Skirt’s new store in Pacific Fair shopping centre. The build is by Veraniece Construction Corp, and the project also features the work of Render X.

The photo shoot was organised for a 7am start, so we had 2 hrs to get the shoot done before the doors would be open and we would have customers in our way. Of course there was no natural light we could use being in the middle of the shopping centre, but the overhead artificial light was quite good. 6+ hours of editing later, the Archie Bolden girls came away with 50+ photos to use however they wish. (this style of photo shoot is valued at $500)

Take a browse of this beautiful store:

Coolangatta Branding Photography for Hair Salon, The Bay Hair Co

It was such a pleasure to be asked by these 2 beauties to photograph their new hair salon in Rainbow Bay, The Bay Hair Co. Jacinta Platt did all the interior design work, a stunning job as always … and she was there on the day, to style it up to suit the photoshoot.

It was such a pleasure to be asked by these 2 beauties to photograph their new hair salon in Rainbow Bay, The Bay Hair Co. Jacinta Platt did all the interior design work, a stunning job as always … and she was there on the day, to style it up to suit the photoshoot.

These clients asked for photos of the salon, portraits of themselves and vignettes of the products they use in the salon. The photos are being used for all forms of advertising … website, instagram etc.

We did the shoot first thing in the morning (we all meet there at 6am), to make use of the morning light (it is East facing) … and also to not disturb any clients, or the salons already scheduled appointments.

This style of shoot, capturing the business location, the staff members and the vignette style shots cost $500. I was on location for 2 hrs and did 6+ hours in editing. (I did not need to bring any styling props) The clients ended up with 50+ photos to use however they wish.
