who is wanderer studio?

We’re Mark & Mim, and helping brands tell better stories is in our DNA.

We’re the photography and content-creator duo behind Wanderer Studio, a Ballarat-based content production agency obsessed with authentic storytelling and capturing beautiful moments that stand out on any platform.

With over a decade’s experience in the tourism and lifestyle marketing landscape - first as marketing and content managers for Formula 1 and Intrepid Travel, then photographing for boutique brands through to global powerhouses like Airbnb, Conde Nast Traveller, and Visit France, in destinations everywhere from Sri Lanka to Sweden - you could say we’ve lived and breathed the industry.

We’re now based on Wadawurrung land in the lovely Central Highlands city of Ballarat with our two beautiful children.

Since moving to the Goldfields region in 2023, we‘ve fallen in love with the melting pot of unique food and wine offerings, creative culture and rich heritage on offer. We’re all about discovering and championing the spaces and faces found here and in regional Victoria.

Our clients are diverse and creative, and their passion is evident. Our passion is capturing that spirit, and helping industry movers and shakers like you to shout your business success from the rooftops with beauty and ease.

No huff, no fluff, just good visual content that works for your brand.

What We Do.

PHOTOGRAPHY

Our bread and butter, our greatest joy. From the delicious first bite of your new menu to long lazy Sundays at your cosy Airbnb, our photography is all about capturing a feeling.

We provide a full range of photography services. From editorial to social-first imagery, we’re all about natural, emotive photography that meets your business needs.

VIDEOGRAPHY

We specialise in social-first content, focused on gaining views and telling a visual story. Whether it’s a 15-second TikTok clip, a 30-second Instagram reel or a full-scale TVC, we have you covered across all platforms and media.

EDITORIAL WRITING

Our storytelling skills aren’t limited to just the visuals: we also have over a decade of experience in communications, editorial writing, and magazine production.

There’s nothing more satisfying than combining killer copy with stunning imagery; get in touch if you’d like to add branded copy and editorial writing packages as add-ons to our packages.

What we value.

We believe good partnerships also have the power to do amazing things and create lasting progress.

We are and always will be a purpose-led business; one that aims to reduce our impact where possible, give back, and inspire a culture that cares for people and planet.

These are a few of the things that matter most to us:

  • A commitment to sustainable, ethical, responsible business practice

  • Locally owned and operated tours and businesses

  • Sustainable design

  • Community-based ecotourism projects

  • Gender equality and empowerment

  • Organic and regenerative practices

  • Cruelty-free
