Model Portfolio Photography in Brisbane

Brisbane is where fresh faces meet world-class imagery. I’m Dave Blake, Brisbane-based photographer specialising in portfolio “test” shoots that open agency doors. Whether you’re just starting out or you’ve got one foot in the industry, these sessions are tailored to showcase your unique look in both studio and real-world settings.

Why Brisbane Models Choose Dave Blake

  • Refined, timeless imagery that feels effortless, not over-styled or over-produced.

  • A clean, high-end aesthetic that agencies, brands and casting directors prefer.

  • Collaborative, relaxed direction. I’ll coach you through every pose so you feel confident on camera.

  • Global expertise in Brisbane. I’ve shot in New York and Paris and bring that same fashion-week standard to your session.

  • Insider agency connections. I can introduce you to top Brisbane and national agencies when you’re ready to submit.

Client Testimonials

“So grateful to have worked with Dave - he doesn’t just capture an image, he captures a feeling. There’s a quiet rawness to their work - soft, unfiltered, and unmistakably their own. A beautiful eye for the in-between moments.”
