Whether we are capturing those special moments in a Magical Wedding, the crutial moment in your sporting event or Family Portraits with their new bundle of joy, you can be assured you will be treated with the utmost professionalism and integrity at all times.

RiverCity Photographics has recently launched its new studio in  Brisbane which can cater for all of your photographic requirements. We offer a friendly and relaxed yet professional approach and listen to what your thoughts and needs are. If you are not sure of the ”style” of images you are wanting, we will be more than happy to guide you and offer you suggestions and ideas until such time as you feel completely comfortable with your decision. We will not railroad you into any “set format”, we will however, let you tailor make your own package so that 100% of your requirements are met.

Our Vision:

Photographic excellence made affordable. We strive to provide you with great value and creative inspiration in your images, not just “run of the mill” photography.
 

Apply about 25 % more makeup than you think is required by the time the photos are taken, and that travelling to and from is completed that excess amount will have literally disappeared into thin air.

If you want the best results for your make up utilise a professional makeup artist. Then you can sit back and relax. Book a few trial session to see which colours and ‘looks’ that you like the best, and that truly reflect you.

On your wedding day, pack a small bag with a compact powder, some long wearing lippy, perfume, and don’t forget the waterproof mascara for those ‘tears of joy’.

Using natural light:
You may be surprised to learn that cloudy, overcast days provide the best lighting for pictures of people. Bright sun makes people squint, and it throws harsh shadows on their faces. On overcast days, the soft light flatters faces. Indoors, try turning off the flash and use the light coming in from a window to give your subject a soft, almost glowing appearance.

When having portrait photos done, the aim is for you to relax and fall into a natural pose. Try your photo shoot photos in your favorite place, or at least a comfortable place. Meaningful props items, like a trophy, a musical instrument, or even a teddy, can add interest.

Use a simple background that is uncluttered. The attention is then drawn to the subject – not the background ending up with a stronger more emotive picture.
