Corporate Portraits - WeWork, 333 George Street Sydney

Recently I had the pleasure to photograph Barry Meskin Patent and Trademark Attorney at Baxter IP Patent & Trademark Attorneys.

Barry understood the need the to update his Personal Branding Images. You need to stay fresh and looking up to date when building your business profile. You can't keep using the same image for all your social media, people will get stale of seeing the same image. You will create a better memorable impact with a series of professional portraits. The portraits are ideal for LinkedIn, Company Website, Blogging, PR Announcements and Print Marketing material.

Our Personal Branding Photography Shoots are designed around you and your business. We collaborate together and create the look and feel of your photography shoot. We can guide you with styling assistance, photography location and hair and makeup. The location of this shoot was WeWork at 333 George Street Sydney. Actually, the building was designed by a client of mine Grimshaw Architects. WeWork offers a range different cool locations and looks within the same location. Excellent for photography purposes. including an amazing outdoor terrace with stunning Sydney City views.

Outdoor Family Portraits - Sydney

Here's a wonderful family portrait shoot I photographed in beautiful Birchgrove overlooking Sydney Harbour. 

This young family was a local family from Balmain in Sydney. I like to tailor my photography portrait sessions to the individual families likes. This outdoor location was selected because they love relaxing there on weekends and the family dog Banjo loves the beach. So do the kids, the beach is always great fun. 

Like many Australian families, they are sometimes hesitant in having a family portrait session. We are too modest! I tell them prior to the shoot that, it will be very relaxed and we allow time for mum, dad, grandparents and the children to ease into the photography shoot.  I'm a relaxed kind of person and have had the pleasure of photographing families over the last 10 years. I promise the experience is one that you will love and enjoy.  I joke with them " that it's not like going to dentist" and always after the photo shoot, everyone says how much fun they had. 

With spring fast approaching, it's the perfect time to update the family portrait on the wall. And dare I say they make for awesome and unique Christmas gifts for family relatives.  



Corporate Headshots Sydney - Circular Quay

As a professional photographer who has been photographing people for over 12 years, I love to inspire my clients to push the boundaries of what a professional corporate portrait or headshot can be. Yes I do photograph professionals in my Sydney studio in Rozelle with various backgrounds and studio lighting. But what I love the most is photographing corporate portraits on location and often outside. These days your business profile portrait for LinkedIn and social media doesn't just have to be a really close shot of just your head. I can photograph you in a various photo locations and styles to create a portfolio of images with different looks and styles. The reason for this is to give you a creative mix of images which you can uses for different professional purposes.

Another very important difference between Mackintosh Photography and other photography studios is that your portrait absolutely has to look like who you really are! Not an over photoshopped and retouched plastic version of yourself. People need to see the real you to build trust in your personal image and company branding and ethos. Having said that I do retouch my clients' business portraits, however naturally and subtly. But most importantly I don't change who you are. 

The images below are from a photography portrait shoot from last week. The client was Laurel Grey from Happily Organised. Laurel was the perfect client; we happily collaborated together on the looks and styles of portraits she required. Then it was up to me to photographically create images to match the looks and purposes of the images she needed.

Laural even gave the studio a testimonial our FaceBook Page. Justin gives personal and professional service - I needed some new corporate shots and he innately knew the right spot at Circular Quay. We got great shots in under 40 minutes - easy and painless! Thank you!
