The team at Hero Shot were fantastic from beginning to end. They were super responsive to all my communications, rescheduled the session at late notice when I was sick, and were friendly and helpful. The photographer, Steve, made the actual shoot fun and relaxed - I can be quite self conscious in front of the camera so this was essential and he was a pro. In addition, the team and Steve reviewed my existing media to get a feel for the style and look I was after, and helped guide me with wardrobe choices, location, and how to stand etc. I have no hesitation in recommending Hero Shot photography to anyone wanting great photos with personality for their branding.

I had a great time with Sam at the studio, he took me through the process and suggested what colour might look better as I was keen to wear a bright colour. He was actually right and I’m super happy with my shoot. I’ll go back to Sam for future needs. He was very pleasant to engage with.

I had to get professional photos for work. I was so nervous and uncomfortable going into the whole process, as it’s not something I’m used to doing. But Hero photography made me feel very comfortable quickly and at ease. I’m very happy with the outcome of the photos. Thank you!

Georgarex

Sam made me look like a million bucks. Absolute legend of a photographer

Julie Jones

Sam was amazing. He made me feel at ease and I really enjoyed the photo shoot. From making the initial phone call and speaking to Kat, to the make-up session with Juliet and then the shoot, everything ran smoothly. Thank you

Dalal Nizam

I had no existing relationship with HERO SHOT photography, but I thought I'd flick through an email and see if I get a response. I was very pleased when I got a phone call back later that day to discuss a potential corporate photo arrangement and Katharina was extremely helpful on the phone. Even though I wasn’t a set-in-stone client she still treated me like one and that meant a lot to me. BDO hired their services for a late notice shoot and Sam took the time to understand the brief as much as possible. I personally wasn’t there with Sam to guide him, but he did well. He showed me some preview shots via a video phone call which I was happy with. The guests were a fan of Sam and the time he took to take their photos. I highly recommend their professional service as they really take the time to understand what you’re after. Thank you

Alan Teoh

The team at Hero Shot were very helpful and responsive all throughout the process. Sam was our photographer and he was very professional and knew how to get us comfortable for our headshots. Would highly recommend them.

Sam is great! Makes you feel very comfortable, he is also quick and doesn't drag the process out. We will continue to use Sam for professional photos.

Gabriel Hernandes

Very friendly staff ! Made me feel very comfortable!!

Charlotte Bungard

We went to Sam with an ambitious plan to try and showcase some personality for accountants and Sam really understood what we were trying to achieve. He made everyone feel so comfortable and relaxed that our headshots are better than we could have even hoped!

Liana Madera

I attended Hero photography for some professional headshots for my new business. I was really dreading the experience because I’m very camera awkward, but Sam made me feel comfortable and gave a lot of helpful direction. The photos came out much better than I could have hoped. I definitely recommend.

David Setio

I'm delighted with the result of the headshots. Sam was experienced and able to direct the shot and styling so we can get the "Image" that I'm aiming for. Great communication with Kat to organise the shot and after shot service. Will definitely recommend the service to anyone looking for a professionally taken headshot.

Peter Senavellis

This was my first time working with profesisonal photography. I consulted Sam on what I wanted (professional headshots), and I got exactly that and then some. With honesty and professionalism, he'll ensure to capture the optimal lighting, angles, and provide tips from body to facial posing to maximise returns within the time constraints. The experience was comfortable and valuable. The evidence is in the photos. Truly a master of his craft.

Jacqueline Smith

Thank you Sam for making my branding shoot less daunting and a much more enjoyable experience! You are obviously an expert at what you do, but it is your calm and relaxed manner that made me feel like I was in good hands. I appreciate the guidance and advice you gave along the way and I can't wait to see the finished product!

Rajal C.

Radhiah Chowdhury

Couldn't recommend Sammer and Katharina highly enough. The booking process was simple and easy, with so much information collected prior to the shoot about what we were after, what we wanted to convey with our headshots, even things that we might be a bit self-conscious about. The shoot itself was efficient and friendly, with lots of options and feedback, and the results sent within a few days. As someone who has never really liked getting photos taken, this was easily the most comfortable photography experience I've had, and so pleased with the results.

Nia Rixos

Stunning, flattering photos, and a couple of hero shots that feel as though they really represent who I am. I went in to take some corporate headshots, but Sam was such a joy and made the experience so incredibly fun for me that I completely forgot I was there for work. Thank you Sam!

Emily Harrop

Simone Austin

Came for some work shots to use as head shots, on website, etc. Well organised, felt relaxed, good set up and good direction given for a variety of serious and fun shots.

Nick Matwijow

Had a great Shoot with our staff, Sam is very professional and flexible to the needs of the business.
