EDITORIAL & PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY

Editorial and portrait photography requires a certain skill set: flexiblity to roll with whatever is thrown your way; the ability to get the best from people who aren't accustomed to being in front of the camera; and an ability to interpret and fulfil a brief in a creative fashion.  

For almost 15 years we have worked on editorial and portrait assignments in Cairns and throughout North Queensland for magazines, publications and business clients. We see every shoot as an opportunity to find a unique or interesting way to express a storyline, profile a character or to document a way of life.  

We have also provided unit stills photography for the growing list of film and TV productions being filmed in the region. Our specialist equipment includes sound blimps and high-res digital equipment for capturing publicity stills and behind-the-scenes images. 

Please check out some of our previous work in the image gallery below, as well as in our Portraits portfolio.
