Neesh Photography
Neesh Photography is a photography business, and website established in 2022. This platform showcases my diverse experience, which now extends to the commercial space, including multi-day conferences, professional portraits, personal photography, and headshots for clients. My work ranges from music marketing and social media content to covering commercial events and capturing precious family moments.
I take particular care in giving back to the communities that support me professionally, offering volunteer photography for philanthropic causes and organisations, as well as discounted rates for small local businesses.

Orana Arts: Alley Gallery
Over a number of weeks in 2017, I captured the creation of a mural gallery at the laneway to the main street of Dubbo, NSW. The Orana Arts + Western Plains Cultural Centre collaboratively selected four talented local artists (Lachlan Goolagong, Heidi Maree Francis, Nick Rosal and Stephen Moore) to paint four remarkable artworks. These works gave life to the main street of Dubbo as an attraction, and I captured the process. They later featured these photographs in their 2017 Annual Report, showcasing the intersection of art and documentation in a vibrant community project.
Regional Lifestyle Magazine: Autumn 2021
In this edition of Regional Lifestyle Magazine, I had the privilege of creating a full-page advertisement for Kitchen & Renovation Concepts Dubbo. This opportunity arose following Kitchen & Renovation Concepts’ involvement in designing, building, and installing a kitchen for the historical heritage listed Nanima Homestead in Wellington, NSW, which was undergoing restoration in 2020. I contributed to capturing the final results of this project in collaboration with Anna Tenne Photography.
At the request of Abraham Damen, Director of Kitchen & Renovation Concepts, I designed a full-page advertisement to be prominently featured directly after a Nanima Homestead feature article in the same edition. The advertisement features images I captured of the Kitchen at Nanima Homestead, and elsewhere.
The ad identifies KRC Dubbo as a business accustomed to creating luxury kitchens with second to none personalisation and functionality. It was a fantastic opportunity to have gotten the chance to design the advertisement, capture and arrange photographs and write copy to help market KRC’s incredible work to the readers of an incredible publication like Regional Lifestyle Magazine.
Kitchen & Renovation Concepts Website
In 2018, Kitchen Renovation and Concepts Dubbo recognised the need for a website update. I played a pivotal role in bringing this project to life by providing copywriting services to create engaging and informative content for the website.
Additionally, I continued to contribute to their online presence by writing blog posts for approximately a year. During 2018 and 2020, I also had the privilege of undertaking residential photography assignments, capturing the finest kitchens designed by KRC. This collaborative work included partnering with renowned photographer Anna Tenne, resulting in visually compelling content that enhanced the overall online presentation.
Tyneesha.com
Tyneesha.com is my dedicated corner of the internet where I share my thoughts, ideas, opinions, research, and various written works. I embarked on this journey at the age of 15, driven by a passion for writing, even though I had limited experience with DSLR cameras. It was here that I first expressed my creativity, leading to the birth of Neesh Photography.
Last year, I embarked on a transformative journey to revamp the site, which resulted in a division of my writing and photography work into two distinct websites. Tyneesha.com now primarily showcases my writing work, including the hosting of my content in podcast form, available on platforms such as Spotify, Apple Podcast, and Google Podcasts. Most of my journalism assignments are also featured on this platform.
Tyneesha.com serves as a comprehensive one-stop destination for everything related to Tyneesha Williams, encapsulating my creative and journalistic endeavours.
Refinery29 Street View
In December 2022, I had the unique opportunity to photograph the Wollongong edition of Refinery29 Australia’s esteemed ‘Street View’ street style series, just a month after launching my photography business.
Over two intense days, I navigated the challenges of approaching strangers for photos, working to a creative brief, and managing paperwork. This experience significantly bolstered my confidence as a relative beginner in the field, marking a pivotal moment in my professional development.
Collaborating with Refinery29 allowed me to represent the vibrant culture and environment of Wollongong, and I felt privileged to contribute to such a renowned youth-focused publication.
Colours of Wollongong
As part of my university journalism portfolio, I started a project known as “Colours of Wollongong.” This project was a dedicated effort to spotlight and extend support to local LGBTQ+ and Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander artists and their creative endeavours. The central theme revolved around conducting comprehensive interviews with the featured artists, crafting insightful feature articles for each, and actively engaging in social media marketing to amplify their stories.
This project resonated deeply with my passions and encapsulated the work I find fulfilling—utilising my skills to bolster and uplift the local arts and culture community within my reach. It underscores the power of journalism in supporting and celebrating the diversity and talent present in the local creative landscape.
Green Connect – Annual Report 2023
Following my volunteer work with the local Green Connect Farm, they entrusted me with the responsibility of conducting another comprehensive photoshoot of the farm and its dedicated employees for use in their 2023 annual report. These photographs not only found their place within the report, but also graced the cover, adding an inviting visual element.
Furthermore, my images played a significant role in marketing the farm, its products, and services, effectively utilised across social media platforms and various physical marketing materials, including pamphlets and flyers.
Culture Mix
In October 2023, Wollongong Council, in partnership with local organisations and businesses, orchestrated a grand multicultural event known as “Culture Mix” right in the heart of Wollongong. The event featured an array of activities, including events, workshops, performances, exhibitions, demonstrations, and a diverse range of market and food stalls, all celebrating the rich customs and cultures from around the world. This event served as a unifying platform, bringing communities together through cultural diversity.
Impelled by my passion, I extended my support by volunteering my photography services for this remarkable occasion. The captured photographs were intended for use by the council to document the event and to promote its cultural richness and diversity. It was an incredibly fulfilling experience to be part of such a vibrant and inclusive cultural celebration.
