about me

I live in New Zealand — the land of the long white cloud. It’s home, and most of my photography starts with simply being outside and paying attention. This isn’t my nine‑to‑five; it’s something I do because I enjoy the work and the moments it creates.

Out in the wild, nothing is set up. The weather changes quickly, the light moves fast, and you work with whatever you get. I like that. It keeps things honest. You turn up, stay patient, and wait for something real to happen.

Most of my time with a camera is spent in landscapes and nature. I’m drawn to small shifts — a break in the clouds, a change in the wind, a moment that feels worth holding onto. It’s straightforward, and that’s what I like about it.

Landscape and nature — that’s what I do. I don’t do events ;-)
