Capturing Moments as Unique as You Are

IT ALL STARTED WHEN...

As a little dreamer, I aspired to become the next Andy Warhol or a leading photographer for Rolling Stone magazine. I grew up in a household saturated with art and music. Drawing inspiration from a kaleidoscope of eras, old Hollywood movies, and high fashion magazines, my work reflects a nostalgic yet contemporary vibe.

During the 2000s, when music festivals were truly at their peak I had the honour of being an official photographer at iconic festivals like 'The Big Day Out' and 'Good Vibrations.' Gosh I miss the days when we could immerse ourselves in live music without a sea of iPhones obstructing our view!

HERE’S MY JOURNEY IN FOCUS...

Having accumulated over 15 years of invaluable experience, I've had the absolute-bloody-pleasure of photographing an illustrious lineup of names that spans the spectrum of greatness. From Silverchair to Snoop Dogg, The Roots to Red Hot Chili Peppers, Childish Gambino to Vampire Weekend, and the legendary James Brown—my lens has danced with these iconic musicians, etching their unforgettable presence into timeless images.

I’m based in the vibrant city of Melbourne but thrive on adventure and will eagerly travel across Australia to bring my creative vision to life. Whether it's in the heart of the bustling city or the serene landscapes of the outback, I'm ready to embark on a visual journey with you.

I thrive on embracing my creative, eclectic & bold style. Boring is simply not in my vocabulary. I am deeply committed to celebrating individuality and ensuring that every shoot or artwork I create has that unmistakable touch of uniqueness! Above all else, Im fuelled by my love of people. There's nothing quite like the magic that happens when we collaborate and combine our creative energies. Together, we'll make art that resonates and leaves a lasting impression.

So, let's create something truly extraordinary!
