  # Commercial Photography Portfolio

Simon Bayliss, Wollongong

Photography has been part of my story for over two decades - long before digital strategy, SEO, or web development became my daily work. What began as a lifelong passion, rediscovered on a motorcycle journey across Europe in 2003, became the creative foundation that shapes everything Creative Orbit does today.

I'm Simon Bayliss - photographer, digital strategist, and storyteller. Based in the Illawarra, I've photographed across rural and regional Australia, from the Barmah-Millewa Forest to the NSW Outback, capturing real people, real places, and the moments that matter to brands, communities, and businesses.

My commercial work spans:

- Corporate & Business Portraiture - executives, teams, and professionals
- Agricultural & Rural Photography - livestock, properties, events, and land
- Hospitality & Tourism - hotels, venues, food, and accommodation
- Events & Community - festivals, sport, eisteddfods, and industry gatherings
- Editorial & Documentary - published work across national media and tourism bodies

## Featured Client Work

Clients have included Tourism NSW, Destination NSW, Tourism Victoria, the Australian Financial Review, Australian Traveller Magazine, and many regional businesses across NSW and Victoria.

The following images in this portfolio represent a cross-section of that work - from the stock routes of inland Australia to the boardrooms of regional enterprise. Authentic, unmanufactured, and always in service of the story.
