Wollongbar photography
Wollongbar is a growing suburb between Alstonville and Lismore, with local services, small shops and plenty of people running businesses from home. Good photos help a new business look settled and help an organisation show the community it serves.
Ballina Council has already commissioned us to photograph Wollongbar itself, and we’re only about 20 minutes away, so the suburb is familiar ground for our team.
01.
Picturing the Suburb
Ballina Council asked us to capture Wollongbar for a strategic planning document. The Wollongbar images were used in that report and then added to the organisation’s image library, ready for future council projects and publications.
02.
Community and Not-for-Profit
Groups that apply for funding need photos that show their work happening. Our coverage of workshops, events and exhibitions at the Northern Rivers Community Gallery has supported its grant applications as well as its marketing and social media.
03.
Home-Based and Small Businesses
A sole trader’s website looks far more established with a few honest images. We’ve done lifestyle photography for celebrant Love for Life Ceremonies and content creation for Gaea Nail & Beauty, both small businesses with a personal touch.
04.
Local Services and Health
Therapists and practitioners need clients to feel at ease before the first visit. We photographed Fluid Motion Osteopathy‘s team at work in their clinic, and on-location headshots for Maintain Independence. See Wollongbar headshots.

What We Look After
Concept development, styling, shoot co-ordination, editing and retouching are all part of the job. We also agree image licensing up front, so you know exactly where and how the photos can be used afterwards.

Session Pricing
Our standard session is $495 for a 2-hour shoot + GST. Council reports, community projects and work across several locations are quoted on the brief, once we know how many images you need.

Photography guides
A before-and-after pair only works if the two photos match. Shooting them on a phone so the only difference is the work comes down to a few habits.

Yes. Ballina Council commissioned us to produce a series of images of Wollongbar for a strategic planning document, and they were added to its image library. We’ve also built a portfolio website for Wollongbar textile artist Patricia Smithyman.
Yes. Besides the Wollongbar series, we built the Discover Ballina tourism library that Ballina Council and its partners use across their marketing, sourcing talent and art directing the shoots. Public sector work needs clear planning and careful delivery, and we’re used to both.
Of course. A small workspace, a local park or a client’s premises can all work. We’ll help choose a setting and style it so the photos suit your website and don’t look like a spare room.
Our standard session starts from $495 for a 2-hour shoot + GST. Council reports, community projects or work across several locations are quoted on the brief. We’re about 20 minutes from Ballina, so getting to you is simple.
Yes. We photographed Fluid Motion Osteopathy’s team at work in their Ballina clinic and shot on-location headshots for occupational therapists Maintain Independence. People choosing a therapist want a friendly face and a calm space, and those images do more than a list of qualifications.
If you apply for funding, usually yes. The Northern Rivers Community Gallery uses our coverage of its workshops and exhibitions in grant applications as well as its marketing. One well-planned session can supply a report, a funding round and plenty of social posts.
Yes. A new Wollongbar business with genuine photos, a clear website and a Google Business Profile looks far more settled than one using stock. We do all three, plus social media, so the images from a single session can launch everything at once.
