About me

I'm a Gold Coast based photographer with a love for all things sport, fashion and weddings. Outside of photography I usually spend my free time surfing, trying (and mostly failing) to be a calisthenics athlete and hanging out with friends & family, most of all my partner Hanna and our Border Collie x Kelpie, Willow.

I’ve never wanted to be labelled as just “that guy with the camera” and to that end I’ve taken a bit of a meandering path to get here. I hold a degree in electrical engineering, have worked as a management consultant, and for a significant part of my life being a competitive swimmer was my serious career plan. Unfortunately my shoulder didn’t agree and 9-5 has never been the lens through which I want to see the world.

Thankfully, photography has been an ever-present force in my life and as I head towards eight years in the industry, there is no doubt in my mind that I’m not me without a camera in my hands.

I have an obsession with capturing the way light paints the world and if the work on my website has at all captured your attention, please don't hesitate to get in touch and we can discuss how I can help bring your vision to life. 

Thanks for stopping by!
