Welcome

I was born and raised in Narrogin, Western Australia. I picked up my first camera at the age of seven. It was a Kodak Brownie which I had a lot of fun shooting Black & White film.

After a few years I progressed to a 35mm fixed lens camera and won the
Junior Section of the local Agricultural Show Photographic awards on a
couple of occasions. After that I progressed to my first SLR and won the
Senior Section of the local Agricultural Show Photographic awards on
three occasions.

I learnt to develop my own black and white films and prints and also
experiment with Cibachrome Colour prints from a number of colour slides.

I commenced shooting Portraits and Weddings in 1982. In 2005 I had the room to build my own studio and really expand my equipment.

Over the past couple of years I have had the opportunity to photograph
some exceptional model talent in addition to family portraits and
weddings.

I primarily shoot digital now but still shoot film when I have the
chance.

I have been happily married to Brenda for 18 years and we have a
beautiful daughter (Rebekah) who was born in January 2006.

Experimenting with my new tripod and panoramic head I was able to capture these images. The Cottesloe Beach image was taken at sunrise and the Perth City image just after sunset.
