I am a self-taught photographer from Melbourne Australia who enjoys shooting everything from people to landscapes and all that is in between, but I if I had to choose I would say environmental portraiture of both humans and dogs is my biggest love. While I do practice and enjoy colour photography, there is something about the art of black and white photography that I am drawn to. I am driven by passion and inspired by the unique way I see and experience the world. Hyper-phantasia and synaesthesia combined with ADHD has me seeing ordinary visual imagery with a creative lens which I was fortunate enough to discover in the depths of the Covid-19 lockdowns in 2020 seeking mental stimulation and reprieve from ennui which is detrimental to the mechanics of my neurology. Aside from photography I enjoy travel and have a keen interest in Hawaiian culture. I also enjoy interior design and I am a huge dog lover!
