You need a good headshot. You also hate having your photo taken. Both of those are completely fine here. A relaxed sitting, easy direction the whole way, and you walk out with a photo that looks like you on a good day, not a stiff stranger and not an AI fake.
A bad headshot is rarely a face problem. It is a comfort problem. The photos you hate were taken in a hurry, with you tense and unsure what to do with your hands. Put someone at ease and the real them shows up, which is exactly what a profile needs and what you quietly want for yourself.
The fear we remove: "I always hate photos of myself." Forty years of putting nervous people at ease means the shot looks like you on a good day, not a stiff corporate mugshot. Real photography, the real you, never an AI lookalike.

Simon helped us photograph the grand opening of our new HQ and manufacturing plant. He was very professional and kept us all engaged, adding humour and clarity… a photographer with the gift of the "eye".
He even managed to get smiling photos of my young granddaughter when she seemed to be doing nothing but cry all day. The images are beautifully sharp and composed and the final presentation is very classy.
Simon is amazing and I would not hesitate to recommend him. I treasure all the photos he has taken of my family over the past 15 years. Feel so lucky to have found him.
Individual professional headshots are $349 (The Executive), $497 (The Professional) or $895 (My Personal Brand), booked online. Each includes the sitting, retouching and a finished gallery sized for your website, LinkedIn, socials, print and email signature.
Solid, mid-tone colours photograph best: navy, charcoal, burgundy, plum, emerald and muted blues, plus soft off-whites and pastels. Avoid pure white and pure black, busy stripes, spots and fine patterns that shimmer on camera, and heavy jewellery that pulls the eye off your face. Keep it simple, clean, comfortable and flattering to your figure. We send you simple guidance before the day, and there is a full guide to what to wear.
From 30 minutes for The Executive, up to 90 for My Personal Brand. You do not need to prepare anything beyond knowing what to wear, which we tell you in advance.
That is exactly who I am best with. A bad headshot is rarely a face problem, it is a comfort problem. Forty years of putting nervous people at ease means the shot looks like the best, most natural version of you, not a stiff corporate mugshot.
You relax and let me work, then I hand-pick and retouch your best frames. If none of them is quite the one, I choose another and retouch it for you at no charge. In 40 years and 6,300 faces, no one has left unhappy. A full reshoot is yours if you ever want it, though I have never once needed it.
Yes. Individual sittings run at a Melbourne CBD studio or on site at your office. If you need your whole team done in one visit, that is our Team Headshot Day.
You can, but AI headshots tend to look like a polished stranger: subtly not you, and colleagues and clients notice. A real photograph is actually you on a good day. For a profile people trust, real wins.
