Yamba photography
Yamba visitors book a room, pick a cafe and plan a day on the Clarence long before they arrive. Every one of those choices is made from photos, so a motel, restaurant or tour that looks tired online loses guests to the place next door.
We’re a little over an hour up the coast in Ballina, a town with the same mix of river, beaches and holiday trade. Much of our photography is for exactly that kind of business.
01.
Rooms and Resorts
Guests want to see the bed, the outlook and the space. We photographed the Ramada Hotel in Ballina and designed its website, keeping one consistent coastal look across every image and every page.
02.
Tourism Libraries
For Ballina Council’s Discover Ballina team we produced a large lifestyle library, sourcing talent, art directing and retouching. Yamba tourism operators and accommodation groups need that same mix of people enjoying the place.
03.
Seafood and Cafe Menus
Food sells a holiday town. We shot every item on The Lennox Hotel‘s menu for a table-ordering app, and created food photography and content for Mumbai Masala‘s social media, later added to the restaurant’s image library.
04.
Lifestyle by the Water
Beach and riverside settings make strong lifestyle images. We photographed a celebrant on location around Ballina for Love for Life Ceremonies, and the Uber Eats launch at Shelly Beach and the Big Prawn.

How a Shoot Works
We help with concept, styling and timing, co-ordinate talent where needed, then edit and retouch the selects. Licensing is agreed for your website, booking platforms and social media. Staff portraits sit on Yamba headshots.

No. It’s a little over an hour from Ballina, and with a clear shot list agreed by phone or video, we aim to cover rooms, food and surrounds in a single visit. Ballina has the same mix of river, beaches and holiday trade, so it’s familiar work for us.
Yes. For Discover Ballina we sourced and co-ordinated talent so the images showed people actually using the places being promoted. Empty rooms and tables rarely sell a holiday, so we’ll talk about who should be in the frame.
A session is $495 for a 2-hour shoot + GST. Full menus, multiple room types or a tourism library are quoted once we see the brief and the list of spaces. For motels and parks, shooting the best example of each room type usually beats photographing every unit.
They are most of what guests judge you on. Visitors compare Yamba stays side by side on booking platforms and Google, and dark or dated images send them to the next listing. We photographed the Ramada Hotel in Ballina and designed its website, keeping the look consistent wherever guests find it.
Yes. We photographed The Lennox Hotel’s full menu for its table-ordering app and created food content for Mumbai Masala’s social media. In a holiday town the food shot often decides where people eat that night, so we plan around your best sellers and the light in your dining room.
Ahead of your busy season, so the new images are live when people are booking. On the day, the right hour matters as much as the month, because river and beach light changes fast. We’ll talk through timing by phone before locking in a date.
Yes. We do websites, local SEO and Google Business Profile setup. Visitors planning a Yamba holiday search on Google, Maps and AI tools like ChatGPT well before they arrive, and new photos paired with a clear profile and website give you the best chance of being the place they choose.
