We love to celebrate love!
Hi, I'm Herman based in beautiful and vibrant city of Geelong!
Weddings are one of the most meaningful stories I get to tell. With a deep love for family and a heart inspired by my own wonderful wife and precious baby boy, I approach every wedding with care, emotion, and creativity.
I strive to create a relaxed and enjoyable experience, allowing your natural personalities and heartfelt moments to shine. Every image is crafted not just as a photograph, but as a visual poem, a timeless memory of your once-in-a-lifetime day.

Cannot recommend Herman enough! He is doing our wedding photos on March and the process with him has been so much easier than we thought! He went above and beyond to make sure all our questions were answered and we were prepared and ready so we don't have to stress on the day. The communication from Herman throughout has been nothing short of exceptional!

We recently had the pleasure of working with Herman for our engagement shoot, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the very beginning, he made us feel completely at ease, while also capturing the candid moments that truly reflect our connection. The final output were stunning. Highly recommended!

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with our family portrait session! The photographer was incredibly patient, especially with our young kids, and made the entire shoot fun and relaxed. They guided us with poses while still capturing natural, candid moments that truly reflect our family’s personality. The final photos were stunning—crisp, warm, and beautifully edited. Highly recommended for anyone looking to capture genuine family memories!

Herman and Hanna were an absolute pleasure to work with. They made us feel relaxed and knew what they were doing. The photos where exceptional and I will definitely be recommending them to everyone.

We had such a wonderful experience with HJV Creative Images for our family photos. The couple works beautifully as a team- the wife guides you with great ideas for poses and locations, while the husband captures the perfect shots.
As a mom of two teenagers who are a bit shy in front of the camera, they made us feel so comfortable and relaxed. They guided us so well that we actually felt like models during the shoot!
The phots turned out beautiful and we truly love every moment they captured. They are also very flexible, friendly, and provide great service.
Thank you for the amazing HJV Creative Images team. Highly recommended!!!

Herman was amazing!!! I needed headshots done quickly for a project and he responded to my post on a local Facebook noticeboard. He was able to book me in, complete the photoshoot, provide proofs and then the final images all within 2 days! Plus, I was supported so well to feel at ease during the photoshoot and given lots of tips to ensure the photos looked professional and captured me at my best. I would highly recommend HJV Creative Images and would definitely use them again.

HJV Creative Images were fantastic in capturing our family celebration. Excellent at organising us to get the most out of the group and individual family photos, really made Mum and Dad's day when they saw the results!
Great communication and professional service, definitely recommend them.

Herman captured my proposal to my girlfriend over the weekend and did an amazing job getting high quality photos and a video of the moment. I would strongly reccommend Herman he was very reliable and had the perfect setup to take incredible photos of us. Me and my now fiancée are so happy with the service. Thank you again!!
