Photography: A Lifelong Passion and Practice
My journey in photography spans seven decades, beginning as a school photographer and evolving into a lifelong dedication to the art form. My core focus remains on Landscape photography, though I maintain a deep fascination with the human element and the stories that can be told through People. This commitment led me, alongside colleagues, to co-found the Contemporary Photography Foundation. I have also held memberships with the Auckland Photographic Society and the Warkworth Camera Club.
My work has been recognized with several awards and exhibited in numerous shows. My photographs are held in several public and private collections, notably The Art House Trust, and have been published across New Zealand, Australia, and the USA.
Collaborative Art and Book Projects
My interest in Art Photography led to a course at the National Gallery, London, and culminated in cataloging art and making books for leading artists like Toss Woollaston and Philip Trusttum.
Mentorship and Continuous Inspiration
A personal highlight has been the opportunity to shoot alongside many top Australian and New Zealand landscape photographers, including Ken Duncan, Christian Fletcher, Mike Langford, Jackie Ranken, Michael Ng, Charles Howells, and Damien Nakora. plus many more. Today, my continuous motivation comes from the writings of Tom Ang, a true master whose ability to explain the way ahead in photography keeps me focused on the future of the craft.
