Some of Our Clients

The whole experience was relaxed and enjoyable, and Rowan made us feel comfortable right away. The photos turned out amazing! Exactly what we want and beautifully captured memories of my trip.

I highly recommend Rowan as a photographer to anyone looking for a professional and flexible photographer.

Laura Schwinn

"My partner and I had a couples photoshoot with Rowan and it was such a great experience! Rowan was well prepared and guided us throughout the session, which made us feel completely relaxed and comfortable.

We’ve done photoshoots together before, but these results truly exceeded our expectations. When we received the gallery, we couldn’t stop smiling, it was so hard to choose favorites because there were so many beautiful shots!

If you’re looking for a photographer who can capture you and your partner in a natural and authentic way, I highly recommend Rowan."

Marey

"My fiancé and i had the pleasure of getting some engagement photos done with Rowan. I am not that comfortable in front of a camera but he made us feel at ease and came prepared with lots of prompts that made us feel confident and comfortable. The photos turned out great and we are very happy with the results. We would highly recommend his services."

Tash Bennett

"Highly recommend, awesome photographer who knows their art. Easily matches your style while being patient and professional. If you need a photographer, he’s the best I’ve used! Thanks for the epic photos Rowan!"

Joshua Wouldes

"I've worked with Rowan on two occasions, first was a headshot session for myself. He had a lot of poses saved up for me and gave me easy to follow direction. He also loved to show me the poses (he looks hilarious doing them).

The second time I hired him for a work event. He was able to mingle with staff so easily and get nice candid and team shots that looked great. We gave him a shot list which he fulfilled and got other shots we hadn't thought we needed. My boss and the team were super happy with the images that Rowan created!

10/10 best guy and photographer about ❤️❤️"

Zara Welch

"We had a session with Rowan for work. Generally, I don't like having my photo taken and don't feel particularly photogenic. Rowan put us all at ease straightaway and made the whole process lots of fun. As a bonus we got some great photos! No hesitation in recommending him."

Dianne Thompson

"I've been looking for someone who can do my photos professionally. Luckily, Rowan is around the next suburb, everything is easy from scheduling to meeting in his place. He has a great touch of artistry and knows your best angles; he has a way of putting out the best in you. Whether it's formal photos, employment, career profile, sports or active photos, or even graduation photos, you can trust Rowan to handle these with ease!"

Ryan San Diago

"We thoroughly enjoyed working with Rowan who was great at communicating with us right from the start. He helps you think about the type of photos you're looking for and follows through. Rowan's professional and calm approach helped settle the nerves and got us into the zone especially this being a first for us. He also offered plenty of ideas to help achieve some of the best shots we've seen!"

Charles Johnson

"Cannot speak highly enough. Not just technical expertise but also they way Rowan conducted the shoot put me at ease and allowed me to relax and soak up my last afternoon with my best friend. The images are beyond anything I could have hoped for, absolutely priceless. Thank you so much"
