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.

Project 365

Commencing 1st January 2010 I will be embarking on a project that many other photographers have done in the past.

The aim is to take one photo a day for the year and post it on this blog.

It will be quite incredible to look back at the end of 2010 and be able to reflect on what I was doing every day of the year. It seems to be a common concensus that as we get older the years seem to go quicker.

I’ve no doubt also that this concept has to make one a better photographer as you become more familiar with your equipment and try new ideas and techniques.

If you are up to the challenge, why not take on the Project yourself and let me know you are participating so we can share our journey. If you need help on how to set up a blog site to participate, drop me an email and I will give you some ideas.

I hope you enjoy the journey as much as I hope to.
