Portrait, Wildlife and Landscape photography

Hi, my name is

About Me:


I grew up in Oamaru, New Zealand - a quirky little town known as the “Steampunk Capital of the World.” Surrounded by Victorian fashion, eccentric costumes, and larger-than-life creativity, I fell in love early with dramatic style and bold aesthetics. Add in the charm of small-town life and the stunning landscapes just outside my door, and it’s no surprise I was drawn to storytelling through photography.


My journey took me to (windy) Wellington, where I captured the buzz of city life, and then to Sydney, where street and wildlife photography became my passions.


For the past twenty-six years, I’ve called the United States home, bringing a global perspective to everything I do. From bold, cinematic portraits to quiet, intimate moments, I see every session as a chance to tell a one-of-a-kind story.


Alongside my photography, I spent years in the corporate world learning how to connect with people from all walks of life. That experience helps me tune in to my clients’ needs, creating headshot and portrait sessions that are relaxed, collaborative, and leave you with images that feel polished, professional, and authentically you.


Why book with me? Anyone can take a picture - but not everyone can capture you. I look for the real moments, the spark, the confidence, the quirks that make your photos stand out instead of blend in.


Whether it’s a professional headshot, a romantic couple’s session, or a dramatic photoshoot, I aim to capture what makes you tick, preserving those moments so you can look back on them for years to come.


Everyone has a story worth capturing. Let’s tell yours in a way that makes a lasting impression.

Say hello. Let's work together.
