Scott Leggo Gallery: Sharing the beauty of Australia

Coming from a financial background in the corporate world, Phillipa Leggo traded it in to become one half of the founders of the Scott Leggo Gallery in Kingston. The married couple tours the country capturing stunning images of Australia to share with people at home and abroad. When she isn’t travelling, running a business or ‘juggling’ the kids, Phillipa enjoys mentoring other businesswomen and is the Chair of CPA Australia – ACT Division.

Tell us about your organisation and your role within it.

“We showcase the beauty of Australia through photography and help our clients experience Australia in their homes and workplaces with premium quality artworks and gifts. Our collection includes photographs from across Australia, from the heights of the Snowy Mountains to the Outback’s red centre, the Great Barrier Reef, and everything in between. I head up all commercial aspects of the business, predominantly working with our commercial partners and clients. Naturally, I also lead our finance, HR, legal, marketing, and procurement areas.”

What inspired you to start the organisation?

“I’ve always enjoyed time outdoors and love being able to share the natural beauty of Australia with a global audience.”

What do you consider to be your organisation’s key strengths?

“Our strengths are the depth and breadth of our collection, as well as the quality of our finished products. We have a wide range of premium and unique photographs from across Australia. Every state and territory is covered and the collection is continually growing. As a small business, another strength is our agility – the ability to make a decision and move quickly allows us to respond to the changing market and meet evolving customer requirements.

“Our ability to be creative and also understand business is a unique strength. Many small business owners are creative but don’t necessarily have the business acumen and experience to support their ideas. Scott and I have a great balance in this regard and are better together.”
