Tourism & Lifestyle

North Queensland has some incredibly diverse and scenic locations - from the Great Barrier Reef, to the Daintree rainforest, the islands of the Torres Strait, to the gulf savannah and outback. Combined with its tropical climate and laidback way of life, it's little wonder that the region is a draw for both tourists and those seeking a lifestyle change. We work with a range of clients, from tourism organisations and operators to marketing agencies and businesses, to delivery lifestyle and destination tourism imagery that captures daily life in our region and promotes amazing experiences.  

Tourism and lifestyle photography are both a mix of portrait and candid documentary photography and involves working with talent and directing them in a way that comes across as natural and authentic in images. Photographing on location is also a essential part of a successful shoot and we have the experience and knowledge to help plan locations and timings that will work best. 

Please check out some of our previous work in the image gallery below - call or email us to discuss your tourism or lifestyle photography requirements.
