I photograph people at every stage of their career – from CEOs and executives, to graduates and job-seekers. 

With a professional studio space in Ringwood East, I regularly help individuals achieve high-end headshots and personal branding portraits.

For teams, I offer on-site setup with minimal workplace disruption, and regularly work across the Melbourne CBD and throughout Victoria. This approach allows us to capture teams efficiently and cohesively in the convenience of their own office.

Frequently Asked Questions

My studio is located in Ringwood East, Melbournes Eastern suburbs. I also regularly travel on-location, and offer office photoshoots in the Melbourne CBD, Docklands, inner suburbs and Victoria-wide. 

Yes, absolutely. Extra support and second opinions are always lovely. My studio has a couch area that your friend/family can relax on throughout the photoshoot.

I regularly work with a professional hair and makeup artist, who is great at bringing the best out of you. She specialises in natural and corporate makeup, perfect for my style of photography. Please contact me for a quote and her availability.

For a LinkedIn session, allow 30 minutes. For my signature branding sessions, we allow around 60-90 minutes.

For on-site teams and staff headshots, visit my corporate staff photography webpage for more of an overview!

This is a very common question, and one of the most difficult things to decide. I encourage clients to bring multiple outfits to my portrait sessions. 

As a good starting point, choose something that you’d wear to a professional networking event, presentation or meeting with a high-end client. Plain tones work best, and a couple of neckline options and jackets are great to have.

Read more on my “what to wear” blog post here.

Yes, always. My priority is for you to feel supported throughout the entire process. I provide pre-session material with plenty of tips, offer email support, and with some sessions a pre-shoot Zoom to plan together. I am always happy to answer questions.

Extra images can be added onto any of my packages and shoots. I charge per-image, and the final results are retouched and polished, provided in high resolution and sized for web.,
