“The first edit was the campaign. We didn't need a reshoot, we didn't need revisions — we just needed the calendar to start.”
Founder, independent label
Sydney, NSW
A small studio shooting editorial stills, brand campaigns and cinematic reels. Sydney and the Gold Coast — anywhere by arrangement.
Services
Stills and motion under one roof.
Considered stills for magazines, lookbooks, long-form features and personal series. Pre-production is built in — call sheet, shot list, locations confirmed before the camera comes out. Delivered as a curated edit with optional raw scans for archive.
Visual identity work for product launches, seasonal pushes and brand refreshes. Stills and motion are planned together so the campaign reads as one piece across web, social and print. Usage rights are quoted up front, not negotiated after delivery.
Short-form motion built for the platforms that matter — vertical for social, 16:9 for site headers. Sound-led, story-led, cut for attention. Includes treatment, shot list, on-set direction, edit and grade.
Single-subject sessions for founders, talent, athletes and personal brand. Studio with full lighting kit or on location with controlled portable lighting. Two to three retouched hero frames plus the wider edit.
When the production needs a director rather than just a camera. Treatment, mood, talent, locations, schedule. Brought in early enough that nothing on the day is improvised.
Colour, retouch and finish handled in-house so the final frames look like the brief intended. RAW selects, finished hero frames and a full delivery in your preferred formats. Source files held for twelve months.

In their words
The work speaks. So do the people we’ve done it for.

FAQ
CuriousAboutSomething?
Sydney and the Gold Coast as the home bases, with travel to the rest of Australia by arrangement. International commissions are quoted case by case.
Selects within a week. Finished gallery within two to three weeks depending on scope. Cinematic films take longer — usually four to six weeks including colour and sound.
Always. Every quote itemises the licence — channels, territory, duration. Buyouts and extensions are available with a stated price up front, never as a surprise at the end.
Yes — and the day is planned for it from the call sheet. Stills and motion run on a shared schedule with the same kit. More efficient than separate shoots and the look stays consistent across both.
