Hey, I’m Kannika.

I’m based on Ngunnawal Country (Canberra), working with brands, creatives, and individuals across Australia and beyond — creating imagery that’s thoughtful, personal, and built to last.

How it started:

I grew up in Perth, but it was the move to Canberra in 2020 that pulled photography into focus. What began as curiosity turned into a drive to document the real stuff — the in-between, the overlooked, the unpolished.

I’ve been behind the lens ever since — building a practice shaped by exploration, collaboration, and an eye for those moments.

What I do:

I shoot creative branding, portraits, and travel content — for businesses, artists, and people who value intentional design and a strong visual identity.

Every project is a chance to create something useful and meaningful — not just content for content’s sake, but work with purpose and personality.

What guides me:

Less performance, more presence.
Photography that feels like you, not a Pinterest board.
Structure meets spontaneity.
And a deep respect for light, space, and human connection.

A few things I’m into:

☕ Strong coffee
🏂 Snowboarding when I can escape the desk
📚 Good books and better conversations
💪 Competitive bodybuilding (yes, really)
📸 Quiet moments that say more than words
