My passion for photography first took hold in 1988 when I was fortunate to work as an assistant to Los Angeles travel photographer David Finer.

​

 

During 1990s I studied photography at a private college where my own style of work was encouraged to flourish. Since the changes in technology with the digital era, I found it necessary and a great pleasure to go back to being a student with the intention of making the most of all that the digital approach to image making had to offer.In November 2011, I gained my Diploma in Photoimaging and was greatly encouraged by being awarded: 

 

* MSIT Photoimaging Student of the Year

 

* Queensland Student Folio of the Year as judged by Australian Institute of Professional Photography, Queensland.

 

* MSIT, Griffith University Scholarship for Visual Arts

 

* Westfield Artist in Residence

 

More recently, I have been fortunate to have been awarded each year at the AIPP National Awards.
