A very brief Bio.

I studied photography in the early 1980’s at the Queensland College of Art. I was at the same time teaching photography (elsewhere) before and during my time as a student. In my final year I began assisting local fashion & glamour photographer Daniel Nolan and relocated to Sydney when he decided to try his luck there.

As a freelance assistant in Sydney in the late 80’s I worked for established Australian photographers such as Brett Hilder and American and European Photographers who had made the trek down under in an attempt to launch their careers. Some of them had only recently stopped assisting themselves for some of the biggest names in fashion photography of the 70’s & 80’s.

It was in this ménage of techniques of masters (once removed) and youthful desire that I was able to assist on shoots for the Australian imprint of magazines such as Vogue, Harpers, Cosmo, Cleo; locals, Follow Me, Mode (whom I eventually shot for myself) and a host of others.

I specialised in B&W photography using Nikon 35mm & Hasselblad 6x6 equipment & have always developed and printed my own B&W work. Colour was always shot on transparency film.

Fast Forward to the new millennium.

I am now shooting mostly digitally with a smattering of film when I need that specific look and feel. I am shooting Fashion and Architecture, People and Places. No job too small and hopefully no job too large.

The majority of recent fashion testing has been styled by me with the gracious assistance of some talented Sydney designers. Hair and Make-Up has been provided by likewise talented people. Please contact me if you would like to discuss any photographic job or project you feel my work is suited to. I am happy to answer any queries.
