Sunshine Coast Photography at its Finest

Our Dream Client

There could not be a more perfect match for Pepper, the beautiful Sunshine Coast and working with a client like Surf Life Saving Queensland.

Over the past several years, Pepper has partnered with SLSQ across a wide range of projects, delivering professional video production, photography, and drone content that supports training, recruitment, and community engagement initiatives across Queensland.

The Brief

The objective for Pepper Productions was clear:

From documenting live training days in the ocean, to working alongside Westpac Life Saver Rescue Helicopter pilots, our team has captured content in fast-moving, high-risk environments where experience and preparation matter. Much of our work with SLSQ takes place where it counts most — on the beach, filming in real conditions, with real people, doing real lifesaving work.

Pepper is fully equipped to produce high-quality video, photography, and aerial drone footage in challenging coastal environments. Our ability to operate efficiently in wind, salt, heat, and water has made us a trusted Sunshine Coast video production partner for organisations that need results without compromise.

Our team returned from the SLSQ Pathways Project absolutely buzzing. Over several days of filming, we worked closely with the SLSQ crew to capture content designed to inspire young people and clearly communicate the opportunities available through the Pathways program.

From the Beach to the Studio

This project allowed Pepper to step fully into the studio environment, combining creative lighting, cinematic visuals, and advanced editing techniques. With full creative freedom from SLSQ, we delivered a bold and engaging youth recruitment campaign video that connects emotionally with its audience while staying true to the organisation’s values.

Drone, Water and land

In 2025, SLSQ invited Pepper to document the Advanced Life Saving Development Program (ALDP) for the second time — a testament to the trust built through our ongoing collaboration.

The crew packed the Pepper van and headed across to North Stradbroke Island, capturing an action-packed weekend of elite training, teamwork, and surf conditions. Working in a remote coastal location required a production team that could move fast, adapt quickly, and maintain broadcast-level quality throughout.

The final content highlights the intensity, professionalism, and camaraderie of the ALDP, supporting SLSQ’s mission to develop the next generation of surf lifesaving leaders through high-quality training program videography.
