The curved brick entry at ZOEI, a luxury location house available for photoshoot hire on the Gold Coast.

The Location

Photoshoot Location Hire · Gold Coast

ZOEI is a private architectural residence in Palm Beach on the Gold Coast, available as a location for stills, campaigns, video and content creation.

A location with its own point of view.

ZOEI isn’t a blank white studio. And that’s precisely the point.

The house brings its own layers into the frame through stone, steel, timber, brick, glass, water, landscaping and natural light.

Yet there’s enough restraint in the palette for the architecture to support your creative direction rather than dominate it.

The result is a location that can feel editorial in one frame, relaxed and residential in another, and completely different again simply by walking around the corner.

01

The Kitchen

Sculptural and unapologetically architectural.

Stainless steel, stone, warm joinery and strong material contrast create one of ZOEI’s defining campaign settings.

Ideal for lifestyle, beauty, fashion, homewares, product and food adjacent content.

Living + Dining

Layered but restrained, with furniture, natural textures and direct relationships to the garden and pool.

Perfect for lifestyle imagery, personal branding, furniture, fashion and candid movement.

The Courtyards

Greenery meets architecture.

Use planting, brick, stone and filtered light to create imagery that feels completely removed from the interior settings while remaining steps away.

Architectural Moments

Sometimes the location itself is the backdrop.

Curved glass. Brick. Skylights. Stone. Strong shadows. Unexpected sightlines.

You’ll find smaller moments throughout ZOEI that can become an entirely different set with the right framing.

Why a house

One location, multiple settings.

A studio is one room and whatever you bring into it. ZOEI is a kitchen, a living room, courtyards, bedrooms, bathrooms, a pool and the architecture in between, all under one roof.

That changes what a single booking can produce. You move between looks by walking into the next room, not by rebuilding a set or driving to a second location.

Some shoots need one hero setting. Others need the whole house. The package you book decides which of them are yours.

Types of shoots

What people shoot here.

01

Fashion

Campaigns and lookbooks with enough different backdrops that twelve looks don’t all read as one room.

02

Beauty

Skincare, cosmetics, hair and wellness against travertine, marble and limestone, in soft morning light.

03

Swimwear

A glass edged pool, an alfresco pavilion and an outdoor shower, with a guest suite to change in.

04

Product

Stone benchtops, walnut joinery and real rooms, so a product has context without a set being built for it.

05

Furniture + homewares

Furniture, lighting, textiles and objects photographed in a genuine high end residence.

06

Editorial

Brick, plaster, curved glass and strong shadow for frames that need a point of view.

07

Personal branding

A full set of brand imagery without every photograph looking like it was taken in the same room.

08

Social + content

Batch reels, stills and video in one booking, with enough variety that the feed doesn’t repeat itself.

09

Film + video

Campaign video, interviews and small scale commercial production, in rooms that open into each other.
