Who we are

We’re Eszter and David, storytellers who believe in the power of connection. After 20 years in the U.S., we’ve returned to Australia with a passion for creating meaningful imagery. From intimate portraits to large-scale productions, we bring experience, adaptability, and a collaborative spirit to every project—crafting visuals that spark curiosity, ignite emotion, and leave a lasting impression.

PHOTOGRAPHER / DIRECTOR

I love what I do. Crafting stories across 25 countries and countless projects has taught me the power of collaboration and reinvention. In my downtime, I’m passionate about perfecting Greek recipes, nurturing my ever-expanding veggie garden, and exploring cities by foot, finding endless inspiration in their vibrant streets and stories.

I live for stories. Whether I’m casting, styling, or directing talent, every project is an opportunity to craft something unforgettable. Off set, I’m equally obsessed with untangling the world of cryptocurrency or soaking up long, lazy conversations on the family farm. People, connection, and creativity—those are my true passions.
