Ascot Vale VIC 3032, Australia
I take the time to understand what it is the customer wants then by using what I know and have been taught and learned through experience, create the best example of that for the customer.
I believe that communication is quite important in helping to "be on the same page" with what the customer needs and wants.

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
To me it is composition and lighting. Once you have these, you can then build on the image by adding what improves the image as well as taking out what does not contribute to the message in the image. The image needs to communicate with out any words etc. what is happening in that moment. The training I have done has given me invaluable experience in creating this.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
First and foremost is introducing myself and making myself known then followed u p by finding out what the customer needs and wants in as much detail as possible. This greatly helps the process and brings a greater understanding of the goal so therefore increases the reality of all parties involved making it a smoother, near seamless production.
What do you love most about your job?
Meeting people from all walks of life. The creativity that comes from envisioning the ideas and giving them life in front of the camera. Seeing the effect this has on the customer once completed.
What inspired you to start your own business?
A desire to be more self determined and more in control of what I do with my life. Artistic endeavours have been the lifeblood for my existence and I needed to pursue these and going out on my own was the way to do this.
Why should our clients choose you?
Good communication and listening skills. Willingness to get the desired result and willingness to learn in order to achieve this.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
This would be possible for product photography or editing of pre existing photos. I do restoration of photos as well, so this would obviously be able to be done via sending files etc.
Headshots
Bespoke headshots using the correct environment to create the look required for their purpose.

Simple and stylish photographs for your products for social media, print media etc.
I can take these either in a real life environment, one that is created in the studio, or completely remove the background/isolate the product.
Architectural Photography
I am able to capture the essence of a building using simple methods. I have had training from some long term professional photographers. They taught me the basics which enable me to get a great foundation to create stunning images for your home, business etc.

Simplistic pictures from your most precious day. Capturing those moments that matter in a bright, cheery atmosphere.
Having a background in documentaries, I have found a real passion for being in amongst the action and taking pictures from that perspective.
