Brand photography in Albury Wodonga for businesses that are better than their photos let on.
The businesses winning work around here aren't better than you. They just look it.
Business video for established regional teams who are excellent at the work and would like the internet to finally reflect that.
You've built something real. It just doesn't come across on a screen.
You've got a team who know what they're doing. Clients who've been with you for years and send you work without being asked. A reputation around here that took a long time to earn and is genuinely deserved.
And then there's your website. A few photos from 2019, a video someone's nephew filmed, nothing that shows the scale of what you actually do now. So when someone's comparing you against a business half your size with a slick thirty-second clip on their homepage, you're the one who looks like the smaller operator.
You know that job you lost last year to a business you're certain isn't better than you? This is usually why. They didn't out-work you. They out-looked you.
That gap — between how good you are and how good you appear — is the whole reason we exist.
You don't need to "do video." You need the right three.

Social content
Short, sharp video for Instagram and LinkedIn, filmed in a batch so nobody in your office is scrambling for something to post on a Thursday afternoon.
Your team, your sites, your projects — the stuff you're already doing every day that nobody outside the business ever sees.
-
Website Hero Video
10-30 seconds at the top of your homepage.
This is the one working hardest for you, because it speaks to the person comparing three businesses on a Tuesday night who has no way of knowing which one is any good. It tells them you're established, capable and worth ringing, before they've read a word.
-
Brand Story Video
The longer one.
Who you are, how you got here, why you do it the way you do.
This is what you send when someone needs to properly understand the business — a client who's still deciding, a submission that needs to stand out, or the good people you're trying to hire in a region where good people are hard to find.
We also produce campaign videos and cinema and TV advertising when a project warrants it.
Not sure which one you need?
If you're not sure which of these you need, that's exactly what a Clarity Call is for.

"Her calming and authentic energy creates a space where I can truly relax and be myself."
I've recently completed my 4th photo shoot with Marcella and there is no one else I would now use. She has that rare ability to hold space and gently direct and guide without creating a sense of rush or urgency - and this shows in the photo gallery!
Her calming and authentic energy creates a space where I can truly relax and be myself. It's a gift that I don't take for granted - coming from someone who is very awkward in front of the camera.
Her passion shines through in her photos. Each gallery keeps getting better and better. She is not just a photographer, she is now a beautiful friend!Jen, Jen Moore Holistic Wellness, Albury NSW.

"She has high attention to detail & a level of care that is so deeply felt."
Working with Marcella was such a privilege & pleasure. She’s so passionate, approachable, kind, thoughtful & has high attention to detail & a level of care that is so deeply felt. The entire process was so healing & empowering & fun! Marcella makes you feel so comfortable & seen which allowed for me to naturally drop into my authenticity. The end result was more than I could have imagined and I’m so grateful.

"The images felt elevated and beautiful, but more importantly, they still felt entirely me."
Working with Marcella was an experience I didn't know I needed. From the moment I stepped into the space she had sourced for our shoot, it was clear that Marcella is someone who cares deeply — about her craft, about her clients, and about the work she puts into the world. Every detail was considered and she created an environment where I felt completely comfortable and supported.
The results were beyond what I imagined. The images felt elevated and beautiful, but more importantly, they still felt entirely me — authentic, not manufactured. Marcella is a rare find. If you're on the fence, consider this your sign. I can't recommend her highly enough. An absolute unicorn.

Our Process:
If you've been burned before, you already know the problem isn't usually the camera. It's the cowboy behind it — no plan, no brief, no communication, turns up not knowing what your business does and leaves you with footage that could belong to anyone.
That's the part we take most seriously.
Before anything is filmed, we work out what the video is for — where it's going, who's watching it, what it needs to do. Then we plan around your operation, not the other way around: we work to your schedule, keep the disruption tight, and make sure the crew on site know what a job site or an office actually requires of them. You'll always know what's happening and what's next.
Timelines are agreed in writing and we work to them. If you've got a launch, a campaign or a deadline that can't move, tell us early and we'll build the schedule around it.
And on the day it's relaxed and organised, which matters more than people expect. Your team are the ones on camera. If they're comfortable, the video looks like your business. If they're not, it looks like an ad. We're good with the ones who insist they hate being filmed — most of them end up enjoying it, which is usually the bit that surprises people.
We work across Albury Wodonga, Melbourne, and wherever the work takes us.
Planned first, filmed second. And no, we won't hold your whole team up all day.
How it works
-
Step 1.
Book a free 20 minute call. We'll work out what you need, which session fits and craft the vision.
-
step 2.
We’ll lock in a date and paying your deposit and completing your booking paperwork secures it — easy peasy.
-
Step 3.
Explore your client portal with all the resources you could need to prepare well so there’s no morning-of panic.
-
Step 4.
The planning call. We map your shot list against what your business actually needs — website, socials, the works — so nothing important gets missed.
-
Step 5.
On the day of your session, all you have to do is turn up — I take care of the rest, getting our must have shots and ensuring you’re relaxed (it’s possible!).
-
Step 6.
Your proof gallery lands in your inbox. Choose your faves and we get to work editing them with care and attention. Then they’re yours to put into action.
PHOTO AND VIDEO TOGETHER
Most businesses need both. Doing them at once costs you less — in money and in time off the tools.
If a crew is coming on site anyway, running photography alongside video means one day of interruption instead of two, one planning process, and a set of images and footage that actually match each other.
Most of our work is booked this way, and for busy teams it's almost always the better call.

"I had a vision of a branding shoot I wanted to come to life and every single detail was hit + more."
I absolutely love working with Marcella. I had a vision of a branding shoot I wanted to come to life and every single detail was hit + more. She is so easy to communicate with along the way as well which made the process much less daunting and so much fun to create!
Any questions or concerns I had (what to wear etc.) was dealt with so quickly and was so sought out, so when it came to shoot day it was extremely seamless and alot of fun. I would highly recommend for all of your business photography!

"She put us at ease with her pre-shoot preparation, gentle encouragement and stress free shoot approach."
I appreciate Marcella on a personal and professional level. I really enjoy working with her, she put me and my clients at ease with her pre-shoot preparation, gentle encouragement and stress free shoot approach.
Plus my clients tell me how much they enjoy the experience of being photographed by Marcella. I always love the whole gallery that Marcella sends me.

"I have never been so happy to look at myself in a photo. Thank you Marcella you are truly skilled."
Hate having your photos taken, but need to? Choose Sunday Muse Studio. Marcella's guidance and reassurance got me in front of her camera and from there she made the photo shoot fun, relaxing and frankly, entertaining.
Her work is splendid. She will capture you and your story by listening and looking and translate that through her camera. I have never been so happy to look at myself in a photo. Thank you Marcella you are truly skilled.
Cindy Bright, Wodonga, VIC.

Yes — teams are a specialty, including the people who claim they "don't do photos". The Signature and The Works are built for team coverage, and we'll plan the schedule so everyone's away from their work for as little time as possible.
-
Yes. Most sessions happen across Albury Wodonga and surrounds — Wangaratta, Wagga, Yarrawonga and beyond — and we travel further for the right project. Travel costs are quoted upfront.
-
Booking four+ weeks ahead is ideal which leaves proper time for planning and styling prep. If you're up against a deadline — a website launch, an award entry, an event — get in touch anyway and we'll see what's possible.
-
If we’re reliant on good weather and it’s forecast to rain or if you have team members unavailable, we simply reschedule, no drama. Life and business are unpredictable and I do my best to be as flexible as possible.
-
My shooting and editing style is fairly true to life which means I use editing software such as Photoshop and Lightroom to naturally enhance what is already there. The images you see on my website are an accurate representation of what you can expect in your gallery. I sometimes use Photoshop to remove blemishes that aren’t usually there or any small, distracting objects but I don’t do extensive skin retouching (i.e. no airbrush effect).
The photos have been on the list long enough.
Book a free 20 minute call — we'll sort out which session fits, get a date in the diary and take one less thing off your plate.
