Photographs of office spaces and conference rooms are generally quite static and offer very little understanding of how these areas can be utilised. A recent project with Hub Australia gave me a chance to work with dynamics and movement in images
Read MoreI have been following this project throughout the whole renovation process which has been amazing to witness. From lifting, moving to the final finishes this has truly been a great experience to watch Ian from Quality Homes Renovations deliver an amazing property. Here are some images showing the journey and results.
Cayas Architects were the lead consultant on this refurbishment of the Surfers Paradise Beer Garden on the Gold Coast. With this renovation they returned this venue to its former glory creating a relaxed welcoming vibe with lush landscaping, decking throughout and retractable roofs.

Read MoreIan Fowler from Quality Home Renovations did an amazing job on this Ascot Queenslander property. Interior styling by Style Elements Interiors.
A recent shoot for the award winning Peter Bell Homes, enabled me to capture the many architectural design elements that are synonymous with their custom design builds for over 4 generations. Located in the picturesque Brisbane suburb of Corinda, the Spencer Street home flaunts a modern design whilst also remaining sympathetic to the local area featuring primarily renovated traditional homes. Set on a narrow corner lot, Peter Bell Homes have designed a home that takes full advantage of all aspects of its positioning and creates an impressive external statement to both street frontages.
The clever use of rustic reclaimed brickwork, exposed timber beams, deep chamfer weatherboards, pitched rooves, specifically posited windows and decorative battening have helped create the classic rectangular and triangular lines compatible with a traditional barn feel. This contributes to a home that combines immense elevation of space with a familiar and comforting warmth.
Two verandahs on opposing sides of the home help merge the external environment with the warmth and cosiness of the internal. A deep easterly verandah provides the perfect counterpoint for exposure on the north and south façade, whilst the west facing verandah contributes an extensive sheltered space. Featuring specialised window glazing in their construction, they also offer a protective design element, ensuring internal thermal control throughout the seasons. The perfect solution to a Queensland climate notorious for its extremes in temperature at various times, and a lifestyle that embraces the outdoors.
From recycled brickwork that helps ground this design in history, to the contemporary use of timber beams, trusses, smooth timber stairs, mixed hardwood flooring and the creation of cavernous living spaces that meld together rustic and modern innovation, Peter Bell Homes have designed and built a home that provides a modern slant with old world charm. Bucolic barn meets contemporary design, and the result is structurally and aesthetically captivating. Custom designs like this showcase why Peter Bell Homes have earned the title of most respected home builders in Qld.

Finish the time of low set bricks building as only choice for retirement living.. I had the chance recently to photograph the new Tricare Development in Stafford, Brisbane. This development offers a whole new way of living from independent houses to townhouses to modern apartments overlooking a beautiful lake including all the facilities you would dream of, pools, gym, restaurants and of course all the health support needed.
This is good news for all of us to think that if we have to one day we can live with the support we need in a beautiful hotel looking environment...
Here are some of the photos from the project:

This historic New Farm property has been styled by Showhomes ready for sale. This is such a beautiful home right in the heart of New Farm. I was lucky enough to photograph this property once the styling was completed. Again amazing job from ShowHomes. It has been proven again and again that good styling and good photography can make a huge dollar difference to the sale price of your home. Here are some of the images from the property.
This house in Ascot was photographed for LJ Hooker New Farm and is now on the market. the interior design is amazing and done by Trudy Interior Design, Architect Lachlan Nielsen from Nielsen Workshop.
With brisbane Property market doing great again the new developments and constructions are flourishing every where and Bulimba is no exception. Here below are some examples of a recent shoot i did for Velocity Property.
Why is Twilight photography great!
Twilight shots are a great way to create the wow factor that will attract potential buyers to click on the property gallery. It creates emotion and a romantic feel to the property, it helps buyers imagine themselves coming home each night to a warm and welcoming home.
Is Twilight photography good for every home? No, it is particularly good for house with certain attributes such as property with down lights, lit pools and inside outside living area.
The dusk shots can also make the property stand out of the crowd in listings as it can give the impression of a property being more up market and therefore attracting more interest.
Here below are some examples of Brisbane dusk shots
I had the opportunity to photograph recently of a property listed with LJ Hooker New Farm in Bridgeman Downs. This property was very impressive and quite exciting to shoot, the high ceilings, crystal chandeliers' and marble bathrooms were just a few amazing assets this house has to offer.
I shot this property early morning and late afternoon to capture the different light situation.
