I love capturing the essence of people, the power of planes and helicopters, and the intricacies of the defence and industrial sectors, no matter the scale.

While I’m based in Adelaide, South Australia, my work often takes me wherever my clients need me to be.

My journey with photography began when Polaroids and film were king, and while I’ve since embraced the digital world for stills and motion, film remains my go-to for personal projects—there’s just something timeless about it.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with a diverse range of clients across the industrial, defence, and people-focused sectors. Some of the names I’ve collaborated with include:

Aerobond, Aerotech, Adelaide Airport, Adelaide Convention Centre, Babcock, BAE Systems, Coopers, Concordia College, Collins Trucks, DefenceSA, Dept. of Education and Study Adelaide, Dept. of Innovation and Skills, Enerven, Epic Energy, Green Industries SA, Melbourne Airport, Mercedes College, Neutrog, Prohibition Liquor Co, Saber Astronautics, SA Tourism, Santos, Silentium Defence, SmartSatCRC, Stratco, Telstra, Thomas Foods, Vailo, Weber Australia, Wilderness School.

Whether it’s working with a large crew on set or connecting one-on-one with my subject, I always make sure to come home with the shot.

I bring a wealth of experience to the table, especially when it comes to understanding the critical importance of safety in potentially hazardous environments. I also fully appreciate the sometimes highly secure nature of certain subject matter. I hold a current Australia-wide aviation ASIC pass.
