about
Hi, my name is Julian Lallo and I’m a Melbourne based food, fashion and lifestyle photographer.
When first picking up the camera in 2015 photography was nothing more than a hobby - an excuse to hang out with friends and take photos of our sneakers. But it very quickly progressed to something much more than that. It became an obsession; an obsession which led me to experiment with all genres of the craft. From street photography and landscapes to portraiture and food.
Through the power of social media my work was soon recognised by both brands and the photography community alike. Gaining work with recognised brands, in international tourism and an ambassador for Canon Australia.
As my interests have shifted so too has my main focus and passion in photography; a shift towards fashion photography. A direction that is off to a great start, having involved campaigns both locally and internationally, with clients such as New Balance, Nana Judy, Intimo, Seafolly and Industrie Clothing.
However, through the ever evolving journey of my career as a photographer one thing has remained the same… It still doesn’t feel like work!
So why work with me?
Pre-dating my career as a photographer I worked in the hospitality industry, both front of house and as a chef. I had a successful career in sales that saw me promoted to brand manager, have managed teams of people; and I solo traveled for 13 months across Europe and parts of North America with nothing more than a backpack.
Through these work and life experiences I have not only built a strong work ethic, but have developed the skills to deal with varying high pressure situations. In addition, it has shown me the importance of clear communication and a given me a great understanding and respect for the diversity of personalities and cultures.
