Photographer for Beauty and Salons

Hair and beauty photography needs soft, accurate light and sharp detail, whether it is a balayage, a set of nails or a brow shape. Production Retainers from $1,500 NZD a month.

For beauty and salons

Billie shoots the work, the stylists and the salon itself, plus product photography for retail ranges.

What Billie makes

  • Hair and beauty portfolio photography
  • Stylist and team portraits
  • Salon interior photography
  • Retail product shots

On the shoot

Honest before and afters

Before and after content is shot in the same light and from the same angle, without filters that change the result, so the work shown is the work clients get.

Claims about treatments

Treatments that claim a therapeutic effect fall under New Zealand’s health advertising rules, so scripts and captions for those services are checked before the shoot.

The service

Billie shoots stills the same way it shoots film: with a clear idea, careful light and an eye for the frame. Artist portraits, campaign imagery, posters and behind-the-scenes stills can be shot on their own or alongside a video project.

What’s included

  • Artist and studio portraits
  • Campaign and product stills
  • Posters and key art
  • Behind-the-scenes coverage
  • Retouched, web-ready files

Which retainer suits

Essential at $1,500 NZD a month suits a single salon that wants one session a month to keep its feed and booking pages fresh. Creative at $3,000 NZD a month suits a salon group or a business with its own product range and regular campaigns, and Studio Partner, on enquiry, suits a beauty brand wanting weekly sessions. A campaign for a new range can be quoted as Bespoke Production.

Can you film real clients during appointments?

Only with their written agreement, and usually during a booking set aside for the shoot so the appointment is not rushed.
