Nj Smith Images

I am Nick Smith, a qualified Carpenter and Builder from the Australian countryside, with an affinity with wide open spaces and big skies. Photography is my passion and I have recently turned to capturing the moments for others. I feel honoured to be asked to capture these special moments of other people’s lives. I am yet to attend professional schooling for photography – my training is mostly self-taught with many, many YouTube videos. I have also been lucky enough to learn from Dale Sharp and also join a Dream Photography Workshop with Ben Broady and Trent Blomfield, adventuring to Norway in 2020. My favourite shoots are landscapes! Especially wild, far, deep and hard-to-find, with the complexities of tricky filming and remoteness. I was in awe when I first captured the Northern Lights or Aurora on our honeymoon an adventure we’ll never forget. Since then, we have loved exploring and discovering other beautiful places to remember. It really is a challenge to capture certain places with light, dark, weather and stars as the constant dynamic. I dream the night skies. The Milky Way is just one of the many galaxies; with a set time of year to best capture the galaxies from miles away. It sees me out at night February to October. I have also realised the beauty in capturing peoples’ most important moments. I have had the honour to remember family members, capture the love of new families, capture the memories of family, to hold the memories of new beginnings, collect reminders of something beautiful and we harness the image of personalities and style in time to remember for years to come. We host private photography sessions in our studio “Portraits @ Parker” for family, friends, pets and parents in our Covid-safe environment, or we meet on location and create something special. We enjoy curating & being part of Corporate Photography Sessions onsite or at a destination chosen by the customer.
