I was born in the small East coast town of Opotiki, New Zealand, and began to take photographs at a tender age of 10 with the help of my grandfather.

I like my images to be fresh and simple, but at the same time I want them to evoke emotion and beauty, to be able to capture that tear when it escapes, and the happiness on your family and friends faces on your special day, these will be some of the memories we I capture on your behalf.

As part of who I am, I like to talk to my clients and really get to know them, but more so, to let you be comfortable with me, I am a funny and outgoing person who will keep you at ease and bring out your character when in front of the camera.

I come from a family where as far back as I can remember there has always been a high importance placed on being creative. Crafts and hobbies, painting and writing were all things that were not only encouraged but indeed there was always a role model to follow.

I found that seeing a picture and capturing that image in the camera were not as easy as first thought, so I sought learning. The more I learned, the more I explored - I joined local camera clubs and the PSNZ and haven't looked back since.

Photography is more than a hobby for me now, it's a passion, and I like to think that passion is transferred into my images!
