THIS IS WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT

LET’S CAPTURE IT

SYDNEY FAMILY, BUSINESS & PERSONAL BRANDING PHOTOGRAPHER

Photography for people who value real over perfect.

What I Do

Life moves quickly. One moment you’re holding a newborn, the next you’re chasing a child who runs faster than you thought possible. Or maybe you’re building a business — one that’s grown from a spark of an idea into something you’re deeply passionate about. That’s where I come in. I photograph families, creatives and small businesses across Sydney’s Inner West, Eastern Suburbs and beyond. I create honest, artful portraits that don’t feel fake. My sessions are simple and personal with space to breathe, connect, and be your real and unapologetically unique self.

What You Can Expect

  • Excellent communication so you know exactly what, when, and where
  • A quick and simple booking process
  • Calm and gentle guidance before and during your photo session (years of teaching yoga come in handy here)
  • Relaxed, documentary and lifestyle photo sessions that feel easy
  • A 3-week gallery turnaround time because I know you can’t wait to see your photos
Best Sydney Family Photographer, natural, candid, beautiful family photos

Natural, JOYFUL & DEEPLY HUMAN

Family, Newborn & Pregnancy Photography

If your family is anything like mine, your days are a wild ride featuring belly laughs and shouts of frustration, mud pies in the backyard, tears spilling down freckled cheeks, jumping on the bed, sticky mango fingers, missed naps, dancing together in the kitchen, and finally, snuggles in bed. All the messy, funny, beautiful moments and everything in-between. That’s the magic. I photograph the real life moments when you’re fully present.

Family photos that capture the beauty, colour & chaos of real life.

I photograph all definitions of families in their most raw and unscripted beauty. My family photoshoots are fun, relaxed and stress-free so you can focus on each other. Kids can be kids – no judgment, I’ve seen it all before! No awkward posing, no fancy outfits or trying to look ‘perfect’ — just you and your loved ones in your home, garden or a favourite place. After your session, you’ll get a gorgeous collection of documentary style images that tell your unique story and feel real.

PROFESSIONAL & ON BRAND

Business & Personal Branding Photography

Authentic editorial style portraits for real people. Not just another headshot.

Your brand is personal — and your photos should be too. I create natural, editorial-style portraits for Sydney business owners, creatives and professionals who want images that feel real. I offer business and personal branding photography sessions in Sydney that go beyond the classic headshot — I help you show your personality, your environment, your values.

Fresh, engaging images that capture the true essence of your business.

I collaborate with you to create visuals that connect, elevate and feel authentic. Together, we’ll plan a session that reflects your story — your workspace, your tools, your style, your energy. Whether you need fresh website images, social content or press features, I’ll help you show up online with confidence and consistency. Real connection sells — and that’s what I photograph.

Hey, I’m Verity Gill, a Sydney family, motherhood, and brand photographer and mum of two wildlings.

I live and work on Gadigal land in Sydney’s Inner West. but I take photos all over Sydney. With over 18 years experience, I have photographed everything from family portraits to weddings and events, headshots for small business and not for-profits, personal branding and production stills for artists, musicians and creatives.

I know being photographed can feel awkward — most of my clients tell me that before we even start. So I make it easy. Every session feels relaxed and comfortable, like spending time with a friend who happens to have a camera. I’ll help you choose a location that feels right — maybe your home, a favourite park, or a bright local café. I focus on the present moment, capturing what unfolds naturally but I’ll guide you when needed with just enough gentle direction so you feel confident.

For families, that means photos full of love and life — not forced smiles. For brands and small businesses, it means images that show who you are and what you stand for, so people connect with you instantly. My goal is to help you look at your photos and think: That’s exactly who we are.

I value inclusivity – all abilities, genders, cultures and family types are welcome. I’ll happily accommodate any accessibility needs to make sure everyone feels included and comfortable.
