"With a comprehensive background in marketing (corporate to SME) Aimee quickly understands the requirements to craft photos that align with your brand. She is adaptable and skilled and will not start a shoot until she clearly understands your end goals. Aimee, made it fun and easy to ‘snap’ some fabulous photos of me, including making me look pretty darn good (not an easy task – hehe). Naturally, I’d highly recommend Aimee for your next photo shoot."

"This photo shoot was such a pleasure! We felt so comfortable and relaxed, and it truly shows in the results. The photos are absolutely incredible — the best Raz has had! We're beyond happy with how everything turned out. It was also so lovely meeting you and having those chats in between shots. Thank you for the wonderful memories."

“I was teary eyed with joy when I saw the sneak peeks, thank you for making my heart smile - I never see myself this way and often thought that I wasn't photogenic but the way you've captured me is just precious - grateful for your talent.”

“She was so thorough in the lead up - I felt Aimee really understood my brand and what I wanted to achieve with my images. On the day I was nervous, but she instantly put me at ease. I felt really comfortable and it was actually so much fun I didn't want it to end! The images turned out better than I ever could've imagined, not posed or cheesy but super authentic, warm and beautiful.”

"Aimee was amazing. This was my daughter's first ever acting headshots. Total professionalism and made my daughter feel so comfortable with her craft. Also loved that the makeup artist, Greer was available. It is well worth booking Greer to make the moment extra special. Amazing experience, thoroughly recommend!"

Frequently Asked Questions

I’ll let you in on a secret - you're not alone! If I had a dollar for everyone who told me they hate photos of themselves I’d be kicking back in a resort somewhere with an ice cold cocktail in my hand.
Which is why I specialise in making you feel comfortable and confident. When you shoot with me I’ll guide you through every step to capture your best, authentic self.

Headshots are usually shot from the bust up and provide a simple, professional image of what you look like.
Personal Branding incorporates storytelling about who you are and why you do what you do. The goal with Personal Branding imagery is to connect authentically with your audience and speak directly to you ideal customer.
Personal Branding photos will be a mix of headshots, editorial and lifestyle portraiture that visually illustrate what it’s like to work with you. -
How much you pay for a Personal Branding photo session with any photographer will depend on how many images you need, the variety of those images, and what else is included in your shoot (e.g. hair and make up, pre-session work etc). The photographer’s years of experience and training will also impact the price (which can range from a few hundred dollars for a mini session to many thousands for something custom).
My Personal Branding photo sessions include headshots and lifestyle portraits as well as editorial and behind the scenes images.
Personal Branding sessions with me also include professional hair and makeup and detailed planning to ensure we reach all your marketing goals!
Check out this page for all the details.

Sorry, no.
Actor’s headshots sessions are shorter and are focused on the set ups, posing and lighting required to get the ideal casting headshots or portfolio an actor needs.
A Personal Brand session with me involves much more pre-session work to establish exactly what is needed for your brand and to craft a custom shoot that results in strategically aligned images.
-
Don’t worry you will get an extensive guide with pages of wardrobe tips and ideas when you book.
The main thing is that you wear something you feel confident in! Try everything on a week before (leaving time to fill in wardrobe gaps if needed).
You can bring in as many outfit options as you want. I’ll go through them with you and help you choose what will work best on camera and make you look a million bucks.

I photograph executive teams of 5-15 who want modern lifestyle headshots.
My signature style uses natural light and real environments, and will require 1/2 - a full day with your team.
You’ll have 25 minutes with my professional hair & makeup artist, and 20 minutes shooting.
Check out this page for details.
