Appleby Photography - Hamish John Appleby

Hamish is a great photographer, he is also really easy to work with. He understands what you want and also has great ideas on how to create fun and interesting images. He shot our latest range of lounge wear in various locations, worked really well with the model and with the model kids we were working with. Knowing how to get them to relax and smile in a natural way. He edited the pictures really quickly as I needed them in a rush.
He did a great job for Tallentire House and I would definitely be using him for all our shoots if he hadn't moved so far away
I highly recommend him and if you get the chance to work with him I would go for it.

My family has engaged Hamish a number of times over the past 15 years for family photography and have not found a better photographer. He is great with all ages and having our photo taken by him is a wonderful experience. I would highly recommend him. Very personable and professional. I can't stress enough how good quality the photos were and he is for sure great value.

Hamish has done 3 shoots in total for my hotels and villa and I must say they are amazing. They really did help push the product. And it's a lovely guy to work with; supportive and not stuck up some of the other so called pros we have used before! Highly recommend him.

Hamish is professional and personable.
I’ve used his work over many years for my headshots (including my profile photo here!) highly recommend.

Hamish took good quality portrait shots for me that looked really natural in excellent scenic locations.

I know Hamish personally and professionally since 2012 where we worked together in a photography project for the third sector (development cooperation) in Sri Lanka and the Maldives.

I believe his photographic style stands out as it is always tuned to respect the dignity of the people being portrayed. His images allow a personal insight into people's livelihood & personality and always appear in a fresh look with a sense of optimism. An essential quality which I would like to see more in the contemporary third sector related photography around the globe.

Spirit of Football has fully appreciated Hamish's photography work since his first assignment with us in 2010 up until he most recent one at the end of 2019. He has the rare talent to make anyone feel incredibly comfortable and accordingly, to get the best out of the people he is capturing. His photography is impressive, beautiful, powerful and authentic. Our work in the non-profit sector lives from authenticity and from emotion. Over the years he captured the unique emotions of the people in our projects from small children and refugees through to top level politicians and famous sports people. We are so glad to have these images and have been able to use them online and in print and continue to do so.

Hamish is an experienced and sensitive photographer. He did many of our jobs, private and business, in an excellent manner. He is a perfect partner in photography and design!

I’ve used Hamish for a number of years for my website photography. Hamish has an artistic eye and a very professional approach. The rates are more than competitive and the results are fantastic. Thanks Hamish

My first shoot with Hamish is when I just arrived in Melbourne, he showed me many cool places in Melbourne for pictures, and surprisingly one of a picture taken by Hamish on that day make me win an F1 competition. Because of his pictures my partner and I had a great time to become a guest at opening party F1 2020 even tho the day after they decided to cancelled the F1

Hamish is a highly skilled, creative photographer who brings professionalism, experience and a sense of fun to every shoot. He is equally comfortable covering business and government events as he is working on larger tourism, hospitality or industrial assignments. One of Hamish's great strengths is his ability to put people at ease and get the best results out of any situation or setting. His images are always clean, striking and ready to use in print or digital format.

Appleby photography have done some really special photographs for us. Great value and very responsive to requests or queries. Highly recommend!

Hamish is brilliant a photographer, very easy to work with and provides fantastic results. I used him several times for corporate portrait and modelling shots. I can definitely recommend him 100 percent.

We worked together on some state tourism promotion assignments and his ability to direct models and make them feel at ease was excellent. By coincidence, some years later he also photographed my partner who is a well-known actor - Hamish has an innate ability to capture the heart and soul of a person.

5 star service. Most beautiful photos and a beautiful person to work with. My highest recommendations.
Thank you so much.
Love Annie
