As Australia’s ONLY specialist allied health brand photographer, my mission is simple: to help you connect authentically with those you serve and grow a business that truly reflects your passion and purpose.
With 20 years experience as a physiotherapist, I understand the heart and dedication behind your work. My approach is relaxed yet professional, creating images that build connection, instil trust, and capture your unique essence.
You don’t need to be a model or know what to do — that’s where I come in. I specialise in working with real people, bringing out your best and guiding you every step of the way, so your images show not just what you do, but who you are.
Bring your business to life
More than just headshots—a branding shoot creates authentic, tailored content that aligns with your vision, builds confidence, and helps your business grow.
Building Trust, Connection, and Visibility
Your skills transform lives—and your brand imagery should reflect that. Professional photography gives you the tools to market your services with confidence, connect more deeply with your ideal clients, and grow a business that feels true to your vision.
Capturing Compassion with Authentic Imagery
Compassion and connection are at the heart of what you do. Authentic imagery brings these values to life, capturing real moments of care that strengthen relationships and highlight the dedication and empathy behind your service.
Capturing the Moments That Matter
I specialise in capturing the essence of professional events, focusing on the real moments, the connections, and the details that make your event unforgettable—so you can focus on enjoying or hosting the occasion without the added stress.
Authentic images that showcase your expertise, connect with your audience, and elevate your brand presence.
This is so normal! If you’ve never had a photoshoot before, it’s completely understandable to feel a little unsure about how to stand, where to look, or what to do with your hands. But don’t worry—that’s my job!
You don’t need to know how to pose. I’ll guide you every step of the way, making sure we find the most flattering angles for your face and body while keeping things relaxed and natural. My goal is for you to look and feel great—because that’s when we capture the best images.
Plus, I’ll show you previews throughout the shoot so you can see what’s working, and we can tweak things as we go. By the end, you’ll feel confident and comfortable in front of the camera—maybe even enjoying yourself!
Not every shoot requires professional hair and makeup, but if you’re investing in brand photography, you’ll want to look and feel your absolute best. Instead of stressing about it yourself, why not leave it to the professionals?
I work with an amazing team of hair and makeup artists who specialise in creating a natural, polished look that photographs beautifully. Plus, having that extra hour to sit back, relax, and calm any pre-shoot nerves can make a world of difference.
I’ve seen it time and time again—once clients have had their hair and makeup done, a whole new level of confidence shines through. And when you feel great, it shows in your photos!
Not sure what to wear for your photoshoot? Don’t worry—I've got you covered!
As part of our pre-shoot call, we’ll go over everything from clothing and styling to the overall look and feel you want to achieve. You’ll also receive my What to Wear Guide, packed with tips to help you choose outfits that align with your brand and make you feel confident.
A great approach is to bring multiple outfits and accessories on the day—you never know what might feel just right once we start shooting! I always recommend a versatile “base” outfit that can be easily changed up with jackets, layers, or accessories to create a variety of looks.
Still feeling stuck? If you need a full wardrobe refresh, I can connect you with a personal stylist who will help you curate the perfect outfits so you walk into your shoot feeling confident and ready to shine!
On our call, we’ll discuss the best location to match your brand and vision. If you work out of a clinic, it makes sense to showcase your environment as part of your shoot. However, if your business is mainly online or home-based, there are plenty of creative options to bring your brand to life!
From parks and laneways to cozy cafés, styled homes, or professional studios, the right location can help tell your story in a way that feels authentic and aligned with your brand. Together, we’ll find the perfect setting that not only looks great but also connects with your audience and showcases you in the best possible way.
Absolutely! Having worked on many brand shoots, I have a strong understanding of the essential shots most businesses need. These often include a mix of professional headshots, lifestyle images, and behind-the-scenes moments that showcase you in action.
On our call, we’ll dive into your specific needs—where you’ll be using your images, whether that’s your website, social media, LinkedIn, trade show banners, or brochures. This ensures we capture a versatile mix of portrait and landscape images that align perfectly with your marketing and branding goals. You’ll walk away with a set of images that feel authentic, professional, and completely you.
We have a large allied health clinic with multiple staff and services. I am a bit overwhelmed on how we plan our shoot and don’t know where to star.. Can you provide guidance on this?
Absolutely! I know planning a shoot for a large clinic with multiple staff and services can feel overwhelming, but that’s where I come in to help make the process smooth and stress-free.
I’m a big fan of a solid shot list and run sheet — the more we plan beforehand, the smoother the shoot will run. This ensures everyone knows where they need to be, what to bring, and what shots we absolutely can’t miss.
I’ve created a helpful guide, "How to Create a Great Shot List and Run Sheet for Your Photoshoot," which includes detailed tips and a run sheet template to make planning easier. We’ll also have a call to walk through your needs, so you feel confident and ready for the big day.
With a little preparation, we’ll capture a range of images that truly showcase your team, services, and the heart of your clinic!
Yes! A lot of my work as a physiotherapist was in the community and aged care sector, so I deeply understand the unique needs of clients in these spaces. After 20 years in allied health, my greatest skill is the ability to read the room—a crucial trait when working with individuals who have physical or mental disabilities.
I am patient, sensitive, and genuinely caring, always taking the time to ensure clients feel comfortable and respected during a photoshoot. I’m acutely aware that I am stepping into their space, and I always ask if there’s anyone who prefers not to be photographed. My approach is adaptable—I know when to step back and let moments unfold naturally and when to gently encourage engagement, creating a relaxed and enjoyable experience.
Safety and dignity are my top priorities. With my background, I’m highly aware of OHS requirements when working in disability and aged care settings. I take every precaution to ensure the environment is safe while making sure each client feels valued, respected, and represented with authenticity.
