Cardwell Photography

Simon has a fine aesthetic, a lyrical, romantic eye and is a pleasure to work with. Lots of experience covering movie shoots too.

I've known Simon for about 40 years. I regard him as one of Australia's most preeminent photographers. His work has a sublime beauty and a potent lyrical quality. Whether it's his portraits or his stunning landscapes, Simon brings a wealth of knowledge and a finely tuned aesthetic to the images he creates. The results are always powerful and evocative. A true master of his craft, highly recommended!

Cardwell Photography has been my goto Photographer for many years now. Simon is a real professional, offering a suite of Photographic services, inculding creative, technical & management, integrating them seamlessly delivering an excellent Photographic experience every time.

Simon provided a relaxed and professional atmosphere for my photoshoot and we had some fun doing it. I'm pleased with the results as well as Simon's after-shoot service and communications.

Simon took some portraits of me for a book I am writing. I found him via a Google search and loved the book cover photos in his portfolio. Simon was very accommodating to my specific needs and when I asked what he mostly photographs, he said does a lot of 'niche' work, to fulfill the varied needs of his clients. I found this to be true, as he listened carefully to my needs regarding style, colour scheme and budget. He fulfilled them, beyond my expectations. I was after a cover photo for my memoir plus some photos to go inside to match the theme... as part of my package Simon arranged for a stylist, had suggestions for outdoor locations as well as studios and went to great lengths to go to a location and take a photo that I specifically wanted. He did such an amazing job, that every photo I ordered, is good enough to be book cover! If I need another shoot in the future, I will be booking him again.

Simon is a kind and unobtrusive photographer who makes you feel at ease and relaxed. His photos are a beautiful quality. Can highly recommend.
