About Me

Hi, I’m Lou!


I’m a professionally accredited photographer with over 25 years of commercial experience, specialising in timeless moments of people, places and things.


Locally known in Dorrigo as "Lou the Photographer," I serve the Dorrigo Plateau area and beyond. My work has been nationally recognised, including as a semi-finalist in the Head On Portrait Prize and as a finalist in the Olive Cotton Award for Photographic Portraiture


Dorrigo Photographic Services now operates online and by appointment. We continue to offer the same photography, printing and framing services for our local community from our offsite studio but the shopfront is currently closed.


Appointments are available locally, and you can also drop in on at Never Never Mind, 16 Cudgery Street, Dorrigo, from 📅 Fridays : 10 AM – 1 PM for a face-to-face catch-up.


Have questions or want to book a session? Fill out the Contact Form or message me on Facebook @DorrigoPhoto — I’d love to create something beautiful with you.


P.S. This is a photo of Ralf and I on our wedding day at Ridgetop Hideaway, Dorrigo (2024), captured by the beautiful and talented Alice Payne (Coffs Harbour & Surrounds Wedding & Family Photographer).
