A few months ago I worked with the creative team from Laundry Group to put together a campaign for Broadway on the Mall.

The awesome Red Brick Studios built a wall on their cyc for me, and we shot a bunch of images up against it.

Thanks to Nic, Amy & Janet from Laundry Group, Viviens and Dallys for supplying the talent, ARC for their brilliant hardworking team of hair, make up and stylists and of course my team as well.

Made a few images for AMP Capital.

We got together a really fun hard working group of young talent and shot them just being kids.

The cityscape elements were shot from the ocean about 1 km offshore.

I just recently got back from a trip to LA, San Diego, Jersey and New York. I took a lot of pics while I was there, professionally and personally. Here are a couple of my personal favourites, all shot from the hip with my point and shoot, the Fuji X10.

Waiting for light instead of lighting , selecting instead of retouching images. Shooting subjects instead of working with talent. Not styled, but style, not well lit but well visited. Swapped studio fees for plane tickets and fuel. Billboards are out now around town. Enjoy

Creative industry mag Gifted and Talented recently did a feature on me. You can check out the article here:

As a long time resident I was honored to be involved in a project for a city that I love living in and calling home.

The City had put together a group people who had made a difference in the last year within our society, and we shot them with a modern clean style on white. Each person had made outstanding contributions in areas such as City Mayor, junior mayor, cultural ambassadors, disability and community activism, and volunteer services.

It was awesome shooting all of these great people and connecting with each one during the shoot. Below are some of may favs, plus a couple of tears from print.

The brief from Smart was to create shots which depicted a sophisticated lounge atmosphere celebrating summer and our outdoor lifestyle. We assembled 10 talent one sunny afternoon and shot a series of day and night shots using natural & artificial light, with coloured gels to simulate candlelight.

As I was driving around today I spied a couple of these on buses, look out for them on billboards and on other media.

Happy to be interviewed by creative industry magazine Design Montage. While people wanting to know more about me is a pretty new thing and probably not something I'll ever get used to, I'm stoked to be along side a lot of people I've looked up to in the industry for a long time.
