About Me

Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia
I am one half of R & D Photography, a husband and wife team of photographers living at North Lakes north of Brisbane Queensland. We share an unabashed passion for photography and can often be seen out and about enjoying the beauty that the Sunshine Coast and South East Queensland has to offer (with our cameras of course!). Always on the hunt to capture an image with "WOW" factor, we enjoy nothing more than capturing the magic in a moment. We want our images to tell a story, a story of love, serenity, emotion, energy; whatever the moment is we want to capture it. We photograph portraits, fine art (landscapes), corporate and personal events, surfing and sport photography. We do not work out of a stuffy studio but instead work with the gorgeous light that nature provides us and in the amazing scenery that South East Queensland offers - we find this style of photography produces a more relaxed and naturally beautiful image. R & D Photography photographs on the Sunshine Coast and Brisbane (together with all areas in between) and we look forward to working with you to produce images full of love and emotion.

The Sassy and Feisty Sapphire.



 Even though she threw a stick at me, Sapphire was still a pleasure to photograph.  All and all was a wonderful photo shoot and we were able to capture many precious moments. I hope you love all the photos.

The Adorable and Very Cheeky Gypsy.



It really was a delight to photograph this family. With hardly a word of instruction these wonderful little girls were able to run and play themselves into some amazing photos.  www.rdphotography.net.au

Attack of the Bumble Bees!




A classic moment in our photoshoot when the two little Bumble Bees decided to attack! And yes that is the stick flying through the air at me in the final shot.  We had so much fun photographing this wonderful family and they were all great sports and luckily for me no photographers were harmed in the taking of these shots.

Free Wedding Photography (Sunshine Coast)

Hi there. My wife Rachael and I live on the Sunshine Coast in beautiful Queensland. We are portrait and landscape photographers with a passion for capturing the emotion and beauty that surrounds us.

From now until the 1st of January we would love to extend to two special couples the special offer of capturing your Sunshine Coast wedding day, gratis. In return for allowing us to capture your day we will provide you with a digital disc of high quality images for you to keep.

Why are we giving away two free wedding packages? Our love for portraiture, landscapes and capturing beautiful and loving emotion has naturally progressed into wanting to combine these loves with wedding photography. In return for capturing your magical day all we ask is to be able to use images taken for advertising purposes to promote our work.

PS - If you already have a photographer booked there is absolutely no reason as to why you can't book us as well - this way we can offer you a different perspective and some gorgeous shots that would not have been taken otherwise - at no extra cost.

Please contact us through our website: www.rdphotography.net.au or email info@rdphotography.net.au if you are interested.

Damon.

Alexandra Headlands - Sunshine Coast - Queensland - Surfing

Surfer at Alex Headlands.  Probably not the best break on the Sunshine Coast, but still some great surfers to capture. Always good when someone manages to stand out and give a great shot.  I really need a surfing crystal ball to tell me when and where to go.  So anyone that wants some pics taken and the swell is pumping, let me know and I may be able to help out.

Alexandra Headland - Sunshine Coast - Queensland

Alexandra Headland looking up to Maroochydore.  This was the same day I took the below surfing photo.  Quite picturesque yes, but where is the iPhone App that tells me when the surf is absolutely pumping.  I would like to thank the surfer below for making dull surf awesome.

Surfing - Alexandra Headland - Sunshine Coast - Queensland.

My first outing with my new Sigma 150-500mm lens.  The surf at Alex Heads wasn't anything to rave about but this guy was carving it up none the less.  I tried surfing when I was a whole heap younger, however, I found it too hard and expensive and gave up and bought a body-board!  So I very much appreciate the skill involved in surfing, especially when I look at surfers like this.  So with my surf photography I seek to capture not just a surfer riding a wave, but a surfer owning the wave.  And for me the 'decisive moment' is that point in which a surfer is able to make the wave their own and not be simply propelled along by mother nature.
