BEHIND THE LENS
I’m a photographic artist based in Brisbane, Australia, with more than 20 years of experience behind the camera.
I trained at RMIT in Melbourne, and my work has always moved between two things that are, at their heart, one: fine art and people. Still-life work that explores the beauty of the natural world. Images that reveal something true about a person: honest, considered, and genuinely them. My portrait sittings are relaxed and personal, a space for people to settle into themselves rather than perform for the camera. The thread running through all of it is presence, and the sensitivity to recognise it.
My photographic work is exhibited and held in private collections. In 2026 I presented Alter, a solo exhibition at Artspace - Jan Manton Gallery in Teneriffe, Brisbane, bringing together works developed over many years alongside new pieces made since moving north.
Twice Nillumbik Prize finalist. RMIT BA Photography. Exhibiting artist. Available for commissions elsewhere by request.
