Nature nominee

In Autumn 2014 I made a day trip to McLean Falls with a close friend from Queenstown. It was a solid 7.5 hour return drive followed by a short 20 minute hike into the base of the falls. I spent a good few hours experimenting with different compositions and shutter speeds before finally leaving, confident that I had nailed the shot I was after.

Later that night, while reviewing my shots back in Queenstown I became increasingly disappointed. I realised that my camera should have been half a foot to the left for the perfect composition I was after. I asked my friend if he would mind doing the 7.5 hour return drive with me again the next day. He was astonished at my request but surprisingly agreed. The next day we returned and I setup my camera in the perfect position. I then experimented again with different shutter speeds taking a series of similar photos with slightly different patterns/streaks in the water until I nailed the shot I was after.

I'm a passionate landscape photographer with a love for the outdoors and sharing the magnificence of God's creation through my photography.

I've been a professional for over 20 years and with my amazing team, operate a retail gallery in Victoria, Australia. I specialise in traditional landscapes but also enjoy aerial photography from helicopters, planes and drones.

I've never been interested in how a camera works; for me it's just a tool that allows me to capture special moments in time and share them with the world. As a follower of Jesus Christ, I believe that my work is a testament to the truth and power of God and his incredible creation.

Through the ongoing support of my print collectors and workshop participants, I am grateful to travel extensively year round and enjoy capturing new and original work.
