About Simona Janek:
Introducing Simona Janek, a multifaceted artist based in Sydney, whose journey from professional makeup artistry to photography has been nothing short of transformative. With over a decade of experience, Simona’s passion for empowering women through beauty and self-expression shines through in her portraiture.
“I was working as a professional makeup artist and always loved the confidence and transformation it created for women especially. So portraiture was a natural choice for me, I do love a bit of glamour,” shares Simona, reflecting on her transition from makeup artistry to photography. Her unique background fuels her mission to capture the essence of her subjects, particularly those who may initially feel uncomfortable in front of the camera.
Simona’s journey into photography was inspired by her extensive experience as a freelance hair and makeup artist, coupled with her experiences in modelling. Her technical expertise grew through in-person workshops, online tutorials and lots of practice. This lead into the world of professional photography.
“My favorite shoots are the ones where the person is hard to photograph and we end up with great shots they love,” reveals Simona, emphasising her commitment to capturing the inner essence and energy of her subjects.
Drawing from her diverse skill set, Simona has created a fashion-inspired style of photography that is simple, elegant, and modern. From personal branding sessions to corporate headshots and beyond, she believes in creating a polished yet authentic representation of her clients’ unique personalities.
“What I enjoy most is the transformations I create – everyday women looking and feeling their best. I love to guide you to achieve the exact look you desire whilst still remaining true to your personal style, be it glamorous, classic, beachy, or vintage,” expresses Simona, underscoring her dedication to empowering individuals through the art of photography.
Simona Janek Photography offers a range of specialised services, including professional Sydney mobile wedding makeup and hair styling, LinkedIn profile photos, personal branding photography, corporate headshots, boudoir sessions, maternity and newborn photography, and makeup lessons.
