I had a trip up to the Sunshine Coast last weekend, to shoot the Sunshine Coast Marathon. Since I had to arrive the day before, I figured it would be a great opportunity to get out and shoot some landscapes, which I haven’t done nearly enough of recently. The weather didn’t really play along, but […]
Springbrook National Park
Recently, I’ve mostly been photographing people. Corporate portrait, events, promotional, sport. They help pay the bills, but gosh I love getting out and photographing some nature. As long as I’ve lived in Brisbane, I’ve only been to Springbrook National Park a couple of times, usually opting for the slightly shorter drive to Tamborine. But yesterday, […]
From Japan to Namibia
If you’ve known me for a while, you might remember that I took a trip to Japan in January 2015, to take part in one of Martin Bailey’s Hokkaido Winter Landscape tours. And I loved every minute of it. Firstly, for the opportunity to meet photographers I’ve known, or known of, for a long time […]

We would often share a rental house with the Briggs […]
Crash
The sea was angry that day, my friends. Like an old man trying to send back soup in a deli. View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize
Blue Serenity
Paragliding strikes me as one of those sports that could either be very exciting and nerve-wracking, or really serene and relaxing. These gliders were over the Carlo Sandblow at Rainbow Beach. View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize View fullsize
Noosa National Park
The internal alarm clock went off and woke me just before the 4am alarm on my iPad, and I was up and away. Walking a couple of kilometres through the Noosa National Park in the dark towards Granite Bay. This place really shines at high tide, with the smaller boulders creating a colourful polished look […]
