Aurora Art 13 Old Lilydale Road, Ringwood East In a series of blog posts, I’m introducing the wonderful businesses in the strip of shops on Old Lilydale Road. Why? As a community project. This is where my studio is located, and I have loved every minute of being here. The community is wonderful, and the businesses and tenants were so welcoming. Here we are with a feature of Aurora Art Gallery – run by Mother and Daughter duo, Lani and […]
2022 YEAR IN REVIEW 2022 was a great year, and it is mind-blowing to think we are now in 2023! Over the past few years in business there have been many changes – not only within Julia Nance Portraits, but changes across the headshot and personal branding trends as a whole. I’ll cover the 2023 branding trends to look out for soon, but first, here is a recap of my favourite 2022 moments to inspire you for the year ahead! […]
Matt’s Headshot Update Meet Matt I met Matt when he booked in for some corporate headshots. Working in sales, he wanted to update his LinkedIn headshot. He also wanted some high-quality images that he would be able to use across his work platforms. Being high up in his field, he wanted to make sure he looked professional, but also approachable and friendly. When I sent Matt my pre-shoot survey I quickly learnt that Matt is a fun, laid-back guy, who […]
Collaborative Projects: True Blue Migration are located in the Northern Suburbs of Melbourne. They’re immigration agents who help those seeking residency in Australia achieve the correct Visas and Citizenships. They’re a tight-knit team who work closely with clients, often over a matter of years, to help them achieve outcomes that are literally lifechanging. I have had the opportunity to work with True Blue Migration twice now. On each occasion, I captured their staff headshots and a series of branding photographs […]
It’s always good to look back on the year that’s been. In fact, the end of 2019 wasn’t just the end of a year, it was the end of a decade. But nevermind that, I want to share some of my favourite headshot sessions of 2019! Kaitlyn – actor headshots Kaitlyn is an actor, who came to me early last year for some actor headshots to kickstart her career, after graduating from NIDA. She was about to embark on […]
Luke – Environmental Engineer Recently I was fortunate to work on some new portraits with Luke, an environmental engineer and founder of Rain Consulting. Rain Consulting works with government and private clients in the field of water management. From stormwater management planning to flood modelling investigations, and integrated water management too. With over 14 years of experience working for Melbourne Water, Luke’s clients really are in great hands. Luke himself is an innovative thinker. While many engineers are typically introverts, […]
I love Prosper’s story. We came across each other in a wonderful Facebook Business networking group, called Business Business Business. It’s a great supportive community that constantly inspires me. But Prosper’s story is a beautiful one and goes beyond me meeting him through a simple online networking group. Born in Zimbabwe, he came to Australia seven years ago in search of an Australian teacher who taught him as a child. Prosper wanted to start a new life for himself in […]
Meet Kaitlyn – the NIDA graduate who is already kicking goals. I worked with Kaitlyn earlier in the year on some new actor headshots (also, how is it April??). She approached the whole shoot with such a positive attitude, completing my pre-shoot survey and really thinking about what she needed, and where she wanted to go in the industry. And then when we met, I found out that Kaitlyn had already been cast in The Australian Shakespeare Company production: Much […]
Lucie – Melbourne Actor, Musician and Artist. This was my second time working with Lucie, and I couldn’t be happier to have the opportunity to capture some more actor headshots for this talented woman. This time we worked together on a gloriously warm and sunny Sunday morning. Lucie gave me the exciting news that she was off to LA, and she was updating her actor headshots before the big move. I am so thrilled to hear about this amazing move […]
I recently had Tiina come to the studio. Tiina is from Finland, but she has fallen in love with Australia while touring. It was about a 35-degree day when we met, but she mentioned how back home in Helsinki it was about -10 degrees! I couldn’t even imagine that kind of cold, and Tiina said that she loved the Australian summer. In the studio, we took a few headshots. She has beautiful blue eyes, so we picked out a top […]
