My story begins with the first picture that I took with my dad's phone, which used to light up with disco lights every time he got a call or message. As I grew older, I moved on to using my brother's phone, which was a slight upgrade and slowly, the phone camera and I became friends.

I found myself always looking at things from a different perspective, whether it was going out for walks or being at an event with friends. I would take pictures from all angles and eventually became the designated photographer in my family and amongst my friends. I've been using different cameras for the last 5-6 years and have gone through different learning curves. After moving to Adelaide more than three years ago, I found myself going out for walks around the city and capturing people and their precious moments. I felt a connection with the city and its people in this way.

Now, as a photographer based in Darwin, I am taking it to the next level by capturing you in the most genuine and authentic way that represents yourself, your values and your personal brand. I am here to capture those precious "OOOhh" moments when you wish there was a photographer around, so you can enjoy being present without worrying about anything else. I want to use my lens as a tool to perceive everything differently and create something beautiful that represents you.
