Meet Nikki - Sydney’s favourite Personal Branding & Business Photographer

Hello I’m Nikki.

I’m a photographer who builds brands up through incredible imagery and a premium photography experience.

I am a storyteller for passionate businesses.

Brands who work with us here at Heist Creative get more than just a photoshoot; they get a customised end-to-end visual storytelling experience. I’m passionate about helping businesses get noticed in a saturated marketplace, and I believe premium, personalised photography is the way to do it.

I can’t offer you fries with that, but instead…

You get that expert combination of left-brain logistical prowess and right-brain creativity. You need someone who can dream up lofty ideas but also swear allegiance to a well-oiled timeline? I understand the world of big beautiful visions, but know each detail and understand the mechanics of how to execute. It’s a bit like if the analytical mind of a multinational CFO and the artistic heart of a perfect pitch pianist had a lovechild - but that’s enough about my origins ;)

Add to that, an empathetic nature and ability to intuit how you’re feeling (and how best I need to guide you), as well as a knack for putting even your shy team members at ease. 

You have big visions and you don’t have time to waste.

Being trusted with your imagery and video assets is not a responsibility I take lightly. For ambitious, time poor leaders - I get that efficiency is paramount.

Our sessions involve brand strategy, location curation, styling consultation, and creative direction tailored specifically to each business. Understanding our clients’ businesses and goals is crucial to the process, and thorough pre-production is essential to ensuring It enables me to shoot with a marketing eye, and capture beautiful photos that are high quality and strategic to communicate your brand’s unique story.

I just get brand photography. I like to think I’m born with it (maybe it’s Maybelline), but I’d say that it’s likely the 8+ years and almost 1000 sessions later of helping start-ups through to industry leaders level up. You’re in excellent hands. (And also, should you need it, I’ll coach you with where to place your hands.)

You won’t find me photographing weddings, shooting christenings and taking family portraits. I’m of the philosophy that, “if a job is worth doing, it’s only worth doing right.” Rather than spreading myself thinly across the entire gamut of photography, I only take on what drives me, and what I know I can serve well. 

Business is where it’s at for me. I’m inspired by business owners and documenting processes and skills creatively. Together, we craft a visual narrative that impacts perception, inspires trust and connection, and makes you irresistible to your ideal customer. Telling your business story is my expertise and passion. 

Your work is my work. Let’s work together.

KIND WORDS

“Recently, I had an opportunity to work with Nikki and it was a great experience from start to finish. Everything was taken care of from day one. The location, plans, and clarity and understanding of my passion for the services didn’t require a word of convincing.

Nikki not only takes mind blowing photos but lifts other women in small business, which made it even more special to me and my brand values. She introduced me to other relevant services and location providers, which was a huge relief.

If you’re looking for a flexible and professional service, your search ends here.

If you’re someone who’d settle for nothing but perfection, she’s your girl.

If you hope to work with someone whom you can just share your vision and leave the rest to their safe hands, then she’s the one!

I feel absolutely delighted with the number of compliments I keep receiving from my website visitors.

Thank you for giving me the most memorable experience, Nikki! Looking forward to working with you in the future.”
