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.

Day 59

Rebekah's Favourite Toy Store

I went down the street with Rebekah this afternoon looking for today’s photo and she pleaded with me to photograph one of her favourite shops. Fortunately for the sake of my wallet it is Sunday and the shop was closed!

Day 58

Narrogin Speedway

This long weekend sees Narrogin hosting the National Title for Production Sedans. The 83 cars competing all lined up on the track for the opening parade before the first of 24 heats that have been scheuled this weekend.

Day 57

Old AMP Building - Narrogin

The AMP Building in Fortune Street was built in 1933. It is now occupied by a local Law firm.

Day 56

Kindy Party

Rebekah’s kindergarten gives those children who celebrate their birthday during school holidays the opportunity to bring a cake on a normal kindy day to celebrate with their friends. This way they don’t feel they are missing out. Here Rebekah’s teacher (Mrs McDougall) is assisting with the candles before the traditional Happy Birthday song.

Day 55

Narrogin Saleyards

I’m not sure if these saleyards are even used any more. I have memories as a child when my parents were farming of coming here with dad to sell our sheep on regular occasions. What a busy place it used to be on Sale days.

Day 54

Artistic Aloe Vera

As I have not been at work today due to illness I needed to find something close to the house to photograph. I found a slightly unhealthy looking plant and thought some artistic treatment would offer a different perspective.

Day 53

Mother and Son

Another portrait shoot today. They were so easy to photograph.

Day 52

Bush Portrait

I really enjoy the opportunity to do portrait shoots in natural bush settings. I photographed this family in the bush first and then we went and had fun shooting on the beach.

Day 51

Neil's Party

Rebekah had two birthday parties to attend today. Here she is practicing her aerobics at Neil’s 4th Birthday party across the road from us.

Day 50

The Chicken Run

We’ve had these chooks from 2 day old chickens and Rebekah enjoys being the egg collector.
