About
Leaving Australia as a 20 year old, and setting out
on a 4 year backpacking odyssey of self discovery,
I soon realized that traveling alone was a unique
type of travel. It instilled a strong sense of independence,
confidence and quenched my curiosity to explore.
These times exposed me to many new experiences,
none more important in my life than photography.
Years later as a professional this desire is still ever present.
Having been taught on my travels to trust my decision
making and instincts, this has allowed me to guide my
work and projects into directions that inspire and challenge me.
Curiosity still plays a big part in my photography. Its presence
drives creativeness and visa versa and pushes me to want to
learn more about people, their cultures and the environment.
It is an excuse to enter other worlds and has allowed me to feel
comfortable whether it’s a corporate boardroom, a
pharmaceutical lab, a frozen iceberg or a mountain peak.
I couldn’t have found a better occupation.
At present, I live and photograph
out of Zurich, Switzerland. Still curious, still challenged
and still having fun.
I am available for assignments, large or small

Advertising Photography
Working as part of a team to create campaigns, collaborating with art directors and clients, constructing the right environment for a successful shoot and then directing the models to capture the concepts is just a part of the workflow required to bring a successful campaign to market. From pre-production to post production, Justin works to deliver results that demand attention. Being a professional photographer in Switzerland, Justin is perfectly based to work throughout Europe.
Portrait Photography
The challenge of taking a life like professional portrait photograph lies in the rapport between the photographer and subject. Friendly, easy going and open, Justin has honed his skills in making his subjects feel comfortable in a sometimes uncomfortable environment. Working mostly with companies and magazines, Justin usually photographs within set parameters but with freedom to explore. He is creative and modern and loves the challenge.
Interior Photography
Justin has been photographing interiors and architecture in Zurich and Switzerland for over 15 years, creating a close bond with his clients. There needs to be an understanding between the designers and photographer, to be on the same page, to interpret the emotions and be conscious of the elements that make up a project. Working over the years has moulded and shaped Justin’s understanding and he is proud of these relationships.
Corporate Photography
Professional identity and branding is key to a successful collaboration. Corporate photography has many varieties from portraits, headshots, to lifestyle working environmental photos and even event photography. Working closely together with the client to understand its requirements and build together a visual story which builds the company’s profile, Justin is totally professional, engaging, collaborative and uses his vast experience to bring your next project to life.
Personal Projects
Any photographer will tell you that Personal Photography is paramount to broadening one’s creativeness. Over the years I have been working constantly and tirelessly on my own projects. It has taken me all over the world to China, Australia, Namibia, Greenland, Norway and India with many parts of the world still to explore. The more experience I gain, the more I want. I invite you to visit my Personal Projects page to share a few of my latest adventures.
Celebrity Photography
Justin works to create powerful personal images that capture the character and goals of his subjects. Collaborating with handpicked staff that includes stylists, hair and makeup artists, brings the best out of each subject. Justin works throughout the whole process of the photography shoot, from choosing locations, designing the lighting to editing the images. His distinct, clean and modern style helps to create a life like relaxed portrait .
Travel Photography
Travel Photography always seems like a dream job. The reality is that it is very challenging, demanding and requires a significant amount of experience. Justin has been photographing around the world for the past 20 years. He has created travel stories on racing dirt bikes through Mongolia, kayaking 1000km down the Yukon river, enduring dust storms at Burning Man, Stand Up Paddling through the icebergs of Greenland and operating from a makeshift photography studio/tent for 2 weeks at the Kumbh Mela in India. It sounds fun but the conditions can be physically tough, mentally draining and all the while requiring full concentration to return with the right travel photos.
Headshot Photography
Creating photographic business headshots is also a large part of Justin’s photography. He works mostly on location bringing his lighting, backgrounds and mobile studio to his clients. He creates customized business portraits and works together with the client to understand their styles and requirements.
Industrial Photography
Being totally mobile on location enables the products and industrial machinery to remain in their natural environment. This creates a more dynamic and engaging visual outcome to the photographic shoot. Justin works to align a company’s needs to a finished high-quality photo that represents their business in a fresh, modern and creative way. He is careful to understand the audience, purpose and brand sensibilities. There are many varied elements which encompass Industrial photography and with over 20 years’ experience, Justin has photographed across a wide range of companies and industries. With this experience he can help document your next project and bring your visuals to life.
Health and Pharmaceutical Photography
The importance of conveying a trustworthy, professional, innovative, visual impression in the healthcare industry is paramount to your branding. Your websites and marketing material create the first impression to your customers. Having great visuals that have been thoughtfully created and tailor made to fit the exact needs and aspirations of your company is important so as to differentiate your presentation from typical stock photography. Justin has been photographing in the healthcare industry for 15 years and has a wide experience in all facets of pharmaceutical photography.
