Welcome to Sydney Shots, I’m Will, a landscape photographer from Sydney, Australia. I enjoy photographing stunning locations in Sydney and New South Wales, especially during the soft and magical light of sunrise and sunset. Before I became a photographer, I practiced for many years as a professional graphic designer.

Graphic design and photography are closely related, so becoming a photographer felt like a natural progression for me. A good eye for composition, colour, lighting and shapes is fundamental in both disciplines. Producing a successful design often requires being meticulous. Having a fine attention to detail while working with these design principles is also key in landscape photography. This is one of the main reasons why I enjoy photography so much.

When I’m out on location and I have selected my photographic viewpoint, my experience teaches me to always start with the composition. Then, with beautiful natural lighting, the ever-changing colours of dusk & dawn and a bit of luck, my image emerges.

If I’m satisfied with the compositional elements but the lighting or colours are not ideal, I might need to re-visit the same spot 3 or 4 times to be able to capture an image I’m happy to share with my customers.
