Ever since I was a small child I remember being fascinated by my father’s Super 8 camera and intrigued by the notion of capturing life on celluloid. My earliest memories were of film projection nights at home with my family. I loved those days.

I collaborate with talented actors in motion pictures, television, theatre and live performance, as well as creatives in the fine art and commercial industries. My photographs harmonise cinematic beauty and highly conceptual narratives.

In 2012, off the heels of graduating with Honours from COFA, I held the first photographic exhibition at the Sydney Theatre Company, transforming the Richard Wherrett Studio into an enigmatic vista of faceless portraits. More recently my work led me to New York and Los Angeles where I worked with Britain’s most renowned fashion photographer RANKIN on a GQ magazine cover shoot of Heidi Klum.

I continue to collaborate with Australian and International artists to produce works that break through the mask of celebrity to reveal an honest and unguarded exposure of the true person.

I believe photographs should linger questions not prescribe answers. I believe that we are in a constant sate of change and the still image evokes life’s motion. I’ve learnt to listen to my instincts and allow space for impromptu moments to be discovered and captured.

I’m currently in pre-production for my film directorial debut ‘Sept Seductions’ about the death of 35mm film.
