Your Trusted Family & Commercial Photographer in Newcastle, NSW
With over 24 years of experience, I founded EMG Photography to capture timeless stories through the lens. My journey began at age 20, driven by a passion for visual storytelling and a deep connection to the Hunter Valley where I was raised. Based in Newcastle, NSW, I specialise in family photography, commercial projects, and travel assignments, prioritising client relationships to create authentic, emotive imagery. My work has been celebrated for its ability to evoke joy, as evidenced by testimonials from families and commercial clients like the Mark Hughes Foundation.Combining technical expertise with a relaxed approach, I ensure every session reflects the unique narrative of my subjects. My commitment to excellence is underscored by repeat clientele and a reputation for delivering exceptional results. Whether photographing milestones or corporate events, I bring creativity and professionalism to every project. Travel remains a cornerstone of my practice, allowing me to embrace diverse cultures and challenges. My goal remains unchanged: to craft images that resonate emotionally and stand the test of time.
