A bit of story

My interest in photography was nurtured by my parents who always had a camera handy to record and document our family life. In recent years I have taken an interest in digital photography and have been recording community gatherings and events in Brisbane.

My images have been published in print and online by Brisbane City Council, the Australian Democrats, the Gay and Lesbian Welfare Association, Queensland Peace Network, various University Student groups, The Catholic Leader, Kiaros Magazine, St Philip's Church Annerley, Junction Park The Annerley Primary School, Oxfam Australia and Senator Andrew Bartlett's web.

Use the menu on the sidebar to explore some of my work and learn about photographers that inspire me.
