About Me

I’m a photographer with a passion for capturing images across most genres but with a primary focus on Motorsports, Sports and Wildlife. Born in Melbourne, Australia. I began my photography journey early in life via a series of point and shoot cameras. Although I seemed to always have a camera with me, I wasn't really focused on it as a passion and I eventually moved on to other things in my life. However, after a break of more than 25 years I returned to photography via the purchase of a Pentax digital camera in early 2012, following a health scare that forced me to find a new direction.....the purchase of the Pentax ignited a passion in me that now burns fiercely. Since 2013 I have been shooting regularly and exercising an insatiable appetite for knowledge in this space with ongoing study, reading, seminars and attending many, many workshops all with the view of improving the quality of my images. In 2014 I committed to a 365 project which got me out shooting every day and despite being a serious challenge it helped rekindle the joy of just getting out and capturing images which only added fuel to the fire that I hope is never extinguished. So, to today. I have moved from my trusty Pentax to Nikon, and I shoot almost exclusively full frame using several bodies with a Nikon Z9 being my go-to. A superb piece of kit that is so customisable and flexible. Currently my back up body is a Nikon Z6III. In recent years I have begun to explore Sports Photography with a very keen focus on Motorsport Photography. Motorsport has always been a passion going back to my days as a paperboy when I would take the opportunity to stack the shelves with the latest Auto Action, Revs, Motorsport News, etc and get a look at all the action on the pages and marvel at the images on the pages. Who could have known that I would end up in a situation where I spend around 50% of my yearly weekends clicking off images at the track and having an absolute ball doing so. Attending/Shooting everything from grassroots through to national and international events. All of the time, learning, improving, and getting to hang with some of Australia’s very best Motorsport Photographers is a blast. It’s a great family and I love every minute of it. Finding this passion at my age is a blessing and one that I intend to embrace wholeheartedly until my last days, whilst hopefully being able to share that passion with my children and grandchildren. Hopefully you will enjoy viewing some of my images. FOOTNOTE: ***** PLEASE DO NOT STEAL MY WORK ***** My work is protected under the Australian Copyright Act 1968.
