The Photographer

Thirty years of
making magic

My first advertising shoot was with Sir Edmund Hillary for the Daihatsu Sherpa — ok, fine, I was only the intern and mostly made terrible coffee — but I was intrigued by the magic we produced that day.

I spent the 90s with a Polaroid under my arm and a second timer running in my head. Today I operate as a certified drone pilot, producing aerial video and stills alongside commercial videography, corporate video, social content, and television commercials — all from my base in Sydney, Australia.

“We live in a world full of beauty, charm and adventure. There is no end to the adventures we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open.”

What I shoot

Disciplines

01
Advertising
Brand photography that introduces your world to new audiences with state-of-the-art production values.
02
Automotive
Epic cars, epic roads. From the Audi R8 in the Dolomites to local launches — pulses racing.
03
Architecture
Patient, obsessive. Waiting for the single blade of light that reveals the soul of a building.
04
Beauty
Collaborating with hair, makeup and styling talent to produce something genuinely special.
05
Editorial
Hasselblad Masters finalist. Storytelling through imagery — raw, gritty, serene, masterfully executed.
06
Events
Fast, fluid, decisive. Capturing the energy and emotion of any occasion, large or intimate.
07
Portraits
The moment when pretence is stripped away. Actor headshots, boardroom portraits, stolen street moments.
08
Travel & Lifestyle
Light, carefree authenticity — almost like a memory from a holiday where life was all about living in the moment.
