As one of Sydney’s leading commercial photographers, I’m commissioned to work on a broad mix of photographic assignments. The photographs I take are generally used for marketing or advertising materials such as company brochures, print advertising, product brochures, corporate websites, project case studies and annual reports.

Shooting on location

I’m well experienced in interpreting communication briefs to ensure the resulting images fulfil their purpose. Many of my shoots are on location in and around the city. Others require shooting at multiple destinations across Australia and overseas. Being based in Sydney, I have access to a diverse selection of locations with flexibility to create commercial photographs that suit my clients’ needs.

When on location, communication, planning and well-managed logistics is fundamental to a successful outcome. There’s nothing worse than arriving at a location to find that people weren’t expecting you or the plant and equipment you’re there to shoot has been shut down for maintenance. As a professional commercial photographer in Sydney, I like to commence communication with all relevant stakeholders beforehand to minimise surprises once shoot day arrives. That said, even the best plans can be turned on their head by a force of nature. In these unforeseen situations, remaining calm under pressure ensures I can still deliver a successful outcome.

Success in the studio

Studio shoots can range from a simple portrait with a backdrop through to complex set-ups requiring set builders, stylist and props. Product shots require careful set-up and lighting. When working with paid talent, I like to make sure I’m ready to shoot the moment they’re finished in hair and make-up to ensure effective use of time. Careful and thorough planning, along with great crew management skills make all the difference.

Whatever the assignment, my role as a photographer is to capture compelling images that achieve all business communication goals and help my clients reach their commercial objectives. Often I’m collaborating creatively with designers, art directors and marketing managers to achieve that. Whether shooting in Sydney or elsewhere in Australia, I always deliver outstanding results that meet all your commercial and corporate marketing needs.
