we BELIEVE good imagery should be felt, not just seen

our story

At our heart, Cloudwalker Creative is about people. We’re just a couple of creatives from QLD with a passion for visual storytelling. Since 2018, we’ve had the pleasure of working with business owners and creative souls alike. Whether you need visuals for your product campaigns, personal branding, modelling portraiture or some beautiful artwork for your home, Cloudwalker Creative has you covered. We believe good imagery should be felt, not just seen. Your images are an extension of your brand, and in fact, of you.

We work with you to create visuals that spark engagement and connect people with your purpose. Named in honour of the dreamers we love to work with, Cloudwalker Creative is the brainchild of Carly and Dan: a Sunshine Coast couple whose mismatched personalities work together to create the perfect synergy for our business and clients. A cloudwalker herself, Carly is the creative force driving the look and feel of the visuals we produce. With an eye for detail and a unique way of finding beauty in everything she sees, Carly is your ‘go to’ for bringing your dreams to life. Dan, on the other hand, is the anchor keeping us grounded and our business thriving from behind the lens. A lover of the ‘gear’, he’s a magician with a camera, and his special power is turning visions into reality.

Looking back on our story, our transition into business was really just a natural step along our journey. Dan’s two decades of sales experience and love for all things tech translated to his passion for mastering his craft. After working as a photographer and videographer, he decided to become a licenced drone pilot and explore the emerging possibilities of capturing imagery using drones. Carly is an artist first and foremost. She discovered her gift for photography when taking reference shots to use for creating her pieces.

Having already fallen in love with capturing beautiful pictures, her move behind the lens professionally began when clients started asking her to shoot imagery for their own modelling and branding portfolios. From this, Cloudwalker Creative was born. When we decided to take our craft and turn it into our business, we knew the key to our success was going to be in remaining true to ourselves. We knew Cloudwalker Creative would celebrate stories and create imagery which we like to call ‘functional artwork for practical purposes.’

Our style is clean and fresh, while retaining an air of quirkiness.. There’s no ‘run of the mill’ backdrops and cookie cutter flatlays when you choose us to showcase your products. We produce top quality, unique visuals which exist to captivate, engage and delight. It’s important to us that our clients know we aren’t another corporate marketing agency.

Our clients choose us because they know that they’ll get, well, us. We pride ourselves on our reputation as easy going, relatable and upfront. Just like you, we’re locally grown, modern eccentrics and lovers of beautiful things. We still pinch ourselves that we get to do what we love every day. We’re so excited to share our work with you and join you on whatever journey you find yourself on. Drop us a line and let us know you’re ready to chat about how we can turn your dreams into reality! Carly and Dan ~ Cloudwalkers. Creatives. Cool Cats.
