KIMBERLEY ROBERTS

Brisbane Luxury Portfolio Director

The Smith Madden team provided such a new and fresh perspective on the Brisbane Marriott Hotel, The Westin Brisbane, and W Brisbane hotels. The media produced was so lux and elevated! Everything ran smoothly across the three day, and the team also provided incredible support with the shoot – the styling, the models, the briefing… everything was perfect!

Looking at the media produced for all three properties, they looked distinctly different and so aligned to each brand’s personality. Thank you to the team for their wonderful work and for ensuring that each property was represented uniquely and in its own right! We look forward to working together on future projects.
