About Red Dust Snow Studio & Simon Bayliss

Our Mission: Regionally Rooted, Digitally Driven

Red Dust on Snow owner, Simon BaylissRed Dust Snow Studio is the vision of Simon Bayliss—digital strategist, web designer, professional photographer, and regional brand champion. With decades of experience and a passion for storytelling, Simon helps businesses from Albury, Wodonga, across Victoria, New South Wales, and even Scandinavia connect with audiences and unlock digital potential.

We believe every business - no matter its size, hometown, or history - deserves a digital partner who understands its world, sees its opportunity, and knows how to tell its story.


The Red Dust Snow Journey

From pioneering one of Australia’s first web-based nurseries in 2000, to delivering award-winning projects for tourism, agriculture, and media, Simon’s journey blends technical mastery, creative vision, and deep local knowledge.

A defining moment came in 2003 - on a motorcycle journey across Europe, camera in hand - rediscovering a lifelong passion for photography. That creative spark, rooted in the Barmah-Millewa Forest and shaped across Australia and Sweden, ignited Red Dust Snow: a studio where digital innovation meets real-world experience.

Over 20+ years, Simon has collaborated with leading brands, tourism bodies, and publishers including:

  • Tourism NSW
  • Destination NSW
  • Tourism Victoria
  • Outback NSW Tourism
  • Australian Financial Review
  • Australian Traveller
  • Outback Magazine
  • Major local and regional newspapers & publishers
  • And many more across editorial, advertising, digital, and creative projects
