About Me

I am a photographer based in Melbourne who specialises in architecture and the built environment.

Born in New Zealand, I moved to Melbourne at an early age, with frequent trips back to visit family and pursue outdoor adventures. On each trip my family always captured the beauty of New Zealand and our memories. Experiencing this first hand inspired me to pick up a camera.

Whilst studying Architectural Design at Monash University, I had the opportunity to travel to China and teach sport to children ranging from 2-8 years old. During my stay I spent a couple of days a week exploring the cities, where I would capture the daily life, nature, architecture and the built environment. From then on my love for photography and documenting flourished, taking my camera on every trip I ended up being drawn to and inspired by architectural forms.

From there my skill and style has developed in to simple and clean images showcasing the beauty of architectural forms.

Architectural photography is coincidentally the perfect mix of a technical challenge and creative outlet for me.
