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.

Road Kill

Whilst travelling home from holidays on the weekend I oberved an eagle feeding off this kanagaroo carcass. Unfortunately, I was unable to stop in time which resulted in the eagle soaring back into the sky. It would have made a great photo had I been able to capture the eagle feeding.

Day 86

Vintage Transport

On our trip home from Esperance this unique car was towing a little caravan. It was such an unusual sight that gave us a laugh.

Day 85

Passenger Ship - "ms Volendam"

This ship arrived in Esperance at 8am and is seen here departing at 6pm. We met some of the passengers whilst having morning tea in town who were from Canada. The informed us there was 1400 passengers and 700 crew on the cruise. It was quite a spectacle watching its departure as it set sail for Albany.

Day 84

Sea Eagle catching fish

This was the first day out with the new Canon 400mm f/5.6L Lens and I was most impressed with it’s performance. We took a trip out from Esperance to Woody Island and also managed to photograph Seals, Sea Lions and Dolphins.

Day 83

Eleven Mile Beach - Esperance, Western Australia

Another beautiful beach on the coastline west of Esperance.

Day 82

Twilight Cove - Esperance, Western Australia

Just before the setting sun there was a glimpse of sunshine fall upon the rocks. This is one of the most popular swimming beaches just west of Esperance.

Day 81

Pink Lake Caravan Park - Esperance

After a 8 hour trip from Albany we arrived in Esperance to a light drizzle of rain. It was a scurry to get the tent up with the assistance of our neighbours in the park only to have the rain stop once we had the tent up.

Day 80

Cappuccino and Cake

It just wouldn’t be a proper holiday withoput good coffee and carrot cake. This was the start of much food for the week.

Day 79

Let's go camping.

This is our camp site set up for the first two nights in Albany (Western Australia) and I’m looking forward to working my camera overtime.

Day 78

NSHS School Ball

When setting up the lighting for the School Ball photos these two girls jumped at the chance for some test shots to test the lighting. You will have to wait a week to see the real photos as we are heading away in the morning. The theme of the Ball is Winter Wonderland and I think they did an excellent job creating the backdrop for me.
