A little about the service we provide from people who have experienced it.
"Shane was amazing to work with. He took the time to understand my needs, what was important to me, and how I want to be perceived in my image and my brand. I am very happy with the outcome and more importantly, Shane made me feel comfortable throughout the entire experience.

Janice
General Photography
Shane showed professionalism, care and logic in how he took and portrayed my photos. He carefully considered my needs and referred to websites and other photos that I directed him to before discussing what I wanted my portraits for. When taking the photos he made the process a lot more enjoyable for me who is relatively aversive to taking portraits. More...

Headshot Photographers
Shane was just wonderful from our initial phone conversation until we got the amazing photos he took. He listened to our requirements and delivered exactly what we asked for. He made the session so much for everyone. Staff had never taken professional photographs before so they were a bit tight but Shane had his own way to make them relax, feel comfortable and have a good laugh. The photographs turned out amazing and I cannot wait to post them on our new website. I highly recommend Shane as his work is simply outstanding! More...

General Photography
Working with Shane was an exceptionally good experience. I was a little apprehensive prior to meeting with Shane but it turned out to be one of the best experience that I have had in recent times working with a photographer.
Shane made me feel comfortable throughout the shoot, the man is a thorough professional. The production was unreal and I am really happy to use it with all my work.
I know that have I said it on the day but I say it again, thank you Shane very much. I certainly would not hesitate to use you again and recommend to my friends and family.

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
The secret to taking a good photo is choosing your photographer. It's the photographer's role to help camera-shy people relax and their timing captures the perfect moment when you're at ease. A good sign that you have the right photographer is when you feel comfortable even though you may still be camera-shy.
They will make you be yourself, which always results in smiles that are genuine and natural.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
When starting a new project, there is one fundamentally important question to understand. Why does my client want to take these photos?
This question brings clarity to the session and delivers stronger and more satisfying results.
What do you love most about your job?
The best part of being a photographer is that I'm always meeting new people who want to use photography in a positive way in their life. Teaching my clients how to get the most from their photos is very rewarding as is reminding them of the importance photography can play in our lives. Memories of your children, parents and even ourselves can fade over time, but a photograph can be a very powerful reminder of our personal histories. I love connecting with people and enjoy being helpful.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I began taking photos of the bands I loved. Photography allowed me to access concerts and festivals as a photographer and in turn meet many of the people I admired. Lots of artists, activists, and even spiritual leaders like the Dalai Lama. It made me realise all of us are connected to each other and impact each other through the lives we live.
Why should our clients choose you?
I am passionate about being useful and helpful in other people's lives. I treat everyone fairly and this includes how I price my services. I work well with my clients and find there are not many obstacles that can't be resolved using clear communication and understanding.

Photo Walks and Workshops with your smartphone
This is a fun and social way to learn how to use your phone camera to take great photos. You will also learn how to use free apps to edit your images in an easy and structured way. These skills can be useful if you run your own business, have children or travel from time to time. You can benefit from better photos for your work or for creating personal memories. Every Sunday we schedule a different walk around Sydney's historic suburbs and fast-developing landmarks. Check our website for all the information.
Weddings and engagements
My preference for photographing weddings, engagements, and any other big life event is to capture real moments like a documentary photographer. There's a healthy balance between the necessary posed group photos which are important to ensure all significant family and friends are included but the magic in an event is the real enjoyment in the faces of people who are present. We have an online gallery to view proofs. This feature also allows the final approved selection of photographs to be made available to family and friends. The service we can deliver is totally flexible depending on how much of the celebration you would like to have captured. Our prices are real and we can make suggestions to help you fit your budget. Warm regards, Shane Rozario
