Welcome to 1826 Media, the home of award winning Australian photographer John Donegan.

You can find all the action of the 2012 Australian Open in live galleries shot for The Associated Press here. And a gallery of images of the 2011 Championship also shot for AP.

The 24th Rip View Swim Classic run by Point Lonsdale SLSC made for some great images with the help of pilot Rob Mitchell at Point Helicopters. And a new image gallery with 23 more pictures has been posted.

It has been a busy and exciting twelve months and we can now reveal some  recent work. This includes a gallery of portraits of leading Australian chefs "Shooting Chefs" commissioned by Taste, The Weekly Review and The West Australian. New technology now allows us to produce 360 degree panoramas showcasing interior design, news events, and corporate events. The ISC sportwear 2011 catalogue and advertising campaign is finished and ISC will soon release the 2012 campaign. We joined the official photography team for CHOGM 2011 and they have posted the work here. We completed portraiture for the new Leffler Simes Architecture website, continued working with the wonderful team at Thrive PR, and finally a new slideshow re-presenting the HeadOn Festival exhibition "Eleven Thousand Days". See below for new photography links we like.


At 1826 Media we will strive to exceed your expectations, delivering outstanding photography within the strictest deadlines. We can deliver imaginative editorial photography, corporate photography, and commercial photography all tailored to your needs.

You can now buy prints of selected photographs by John Donegan. We are updating the print galleries regularly, and we can also turn your favourite images into personalised cards. Contact us for card options and pricing.

The entire site is now iPad active. Please contact us if you have trouble viewing the site on your iPad or table.
