An Award Winning professional photographer based in Fremantle, Western Australia.
Specialising in Astro/Night Landscape images and also daytime landscape photography too, I am open to all challenges and experienced in many photographic techniques.
A love for travel was my original pathway into photography. I've always had a passion for art and an interest in technology and through much dedication, capturing beautiful moments has become my main goal in life. The power in a photograph is, in my opinion, unrivalled.
Exploring, experiencing and embracing new places is an incredible pastime alone but to capture this world's beauty, to then encourage other people to think, be curious, be entertained or even to question what they see and feel is something that fills me with energy. This is why one of my main objectives is to shoot landscapes at night that show the diversity and wonder of what this world (and the universe!) has to offer.
Since I first picked up a camera, long exposures have always intrigued me. Not only do they provide an opportunity for creativity and imagination but also, as a truly personal reward, moments of reflection and serenity.
Through practice, patience, education and experimentation, long exposures after dark have become a primary love.
I now run workshops in the field of creating Astrolandscape images for both groups and individuals.
They consist of an indoor class where I teach everything about the planning, preparation, safety, equipment, settings and techniques of a successful night shoot. After this we go out to a dark sky spot to put what was learnt into practice. I teach with enthusiasm and patience, am happy to answer questions and help you get the most out of your current gear.
I can't even begin to describe the joy I get out of teaching and bringing the incredible and unique experience of shooting landscapes underneath the awe inspiring night sky, to people like you! It is always a fun evening and I've met lots of fantastic people through it.
Please see my workshops pages on this site to see my reviews and feedback. There is also a form to fill out to contact me for bookings and further information.
Finally, all of the images on this website are available to purchase as as prints. Please feel free to get in touch to talk about projects and opportunities.
