Background info
"The first photograph I ever took was while travelling in Malaysia, visiting family as a 13 year old. I'd spent my hard earned on a 110 film cartridge camera and set about photographing our family travels".
"It wasn't until 10 years later however, returning to Asia to work and travel as a mechanical engineer, that my interest in photography became serious. During later work in the UK and travel overseas my photography developed into a full-blown passion and after completing studies in commercial photography, I left engineering to pursue photography full-time in 2006 in my native Cairns".
"I love the diversity and room for creativty that photography brings. I love to shoot a wide variety of subjects and styles, trying always to invoke a mood or emotion combined with great light and vibrant colour".
