About Gotham Studios Melbourne

Gotham Studios is the brainchild of Lisa Saad, an accomplished global award-winning photographer. Gotham Studios exists because she decided that there needed to be a different way to perform B2B transactions when it came to supplying high quality photography in Australia, utilising the vastness of the World Wide Web and by introducing "Pre-Paid Photography Services" for business people, companies and multinationals looking for quality and ease of transaction when engaging a photographic supplier.

Gotham Studios Melbourne is an online prepaid photography service that is unique and serves to be placed as a market leader in the supply of high-end photography to B2B clients across Australia. The business model at Gotham Studios Melbourne is based on her core beliefs; "of producing the best quality work within prescribed timeframes, on budget and with no blowouts or misrepresentation of expenditure." Saad instils into the team at Gotham Studios Melbourne a sense of pride in all the work produced and feels it is a privilege to be a part of any production and have the opportunity to nurture ongoing relationships.
