Photographer and Filmmaker
Annabel is the selected Official Photographer for Sydney New Year’s Eve, the Bondi Beach Memorial Services and Dawn Reflection January 26 (Australia Day), among other appointments.
An award-winning Australian photographer and filmmaker, Annabel works across events, tourism, advertising campaigns, fine-art landscapes and fine art dog photography. Based in Sydney Australia, her work is known for its cinematic quality, narrative depth, and deep respect for people, animals, and place.
Her photography clients include Samsung, Qantas, Destination NSW, Sydney Opera House, State Government NSW, Transport for NSW, Bondi Pavilion, RSPCA NSW, RSPCA Pet Insurance, Pet Circle, Earth Hour, WWF, City of Sydney Council, Waverley Council, Australian Seniors, Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, Sydney Lunar New Year, Holden, Mitsubishi, Ford, and US brands Rubbermaid and Kool-Aid. She is trusted by government, cultural institutions, and global brands to deliver strong visual narratives in complex, high-pressure environments.
Annabel has been featured on Ten News 1st and the ABC, with double-page spreads in The Sydney Morning Herald and additional coverage in The Daily Telegraph and The Wentworth Courier. Her Sydney New Year’s Eve photography has been distributed to media outlets around the world, representing Australia on one of the most widely viewed global events each year.
With nearly 20 years’ experience in the Australian and US film and television industry, Annabel has worked on high-profile productions including Avatar, Fool’s Gold, Disturbia, and Blueback, directed by Robert Connolly and produced by Arenamedia. She has worked alongside some of Australia’s most respected actors, including Chris Hemsworth, Eric Bana, and Joel Edgerton, experience that informs her calm, intuitive approach behind the camera.
Deeply connected to nature and wildlife, Annabel often works in remote locations. She discovered the magic of infrared photography, which captures light beyond the visible spectrum. This approach gives her landscapes a heightened, other-worldly quality and reflects her fascination with the unseen forces of the natural world.
Annabel is also the founder of Call of the Wild Pet Photography, a fine-art dog photography studio celebrated for dramatic portraits created in natural settings at iconic Sydney locations. A lifelong advocate for animals, her work is driven by a desire to honour their spirit, individuality, and bond with humans. She recently exhibited this work on the Bondi Beach promenade as part of the Head On Photo Festival.
A UCLA, Macquarie University, and AFTRS grad, Annabel shoots on Canon R5 mirrorless systems. Her favourite part of the job is simple: seeing the joy on people’s faces — especially dog parents — when they receive images they truly connect with.
