Our Story began in January 2000

Some people are naturally photogenic. They're rare. Most of us need persuasion to pose for a photograph, and even then usually wince at the outcome. It was this awareness, from experiences on both sides of the lens, that in January 2000 brought The Melbourne Headshot Company into being. For years, award-winning photographers Andrew and Robyn Campbell had been watching clients squirm their way through sittings as though in a dentist's chair; they decided to take a streamlined professional approach to corporate portraiture that for clients would be all-gain and no-pain.

Commercial portraits are actually a neglected part of photography, and the experience of the subjects a neglected aspect of portraits. Andrew and Robyn wanted clients to enjoy the experience of having their photo taken, and to participate in making their image rather than simply having it captured. In a world of routine, run-of-the-mill pictorial clichés, an arresting or memorable portrait is a competitive edge - not to mention a personal affirmation.

Between them, Andrew and Robyn have over 25 years experience as professional photographers specializing in advertising, fashion and people. They have won over 100 international, national and state, Australian Institute of Professional Photography (AIPP) awards, including the following titles:

• Family Photographer of the Year (runner-up) - Australia 2010
• GOLD Award Portrait - Australia 2010
• Quadruple Master of Photography - Australia 2008
• Highest Scoring Portrait - Victoria 2006
  
• Commercial Photographer of the Year - Victoria 2003
• Triple Master of Photography - Australia 2003
• Double Master of Photography - Australia 2000
• Professional Photographer of the Year - Victoria 2000
• Portrait Photographer of the Year - Victoria 20
