Good question... I'm just another laied back Aussie who has turned his passion into their dream job as I do this gig full time. I'm based just outside of Sydney on the Central Coast of NSW, Australia.
I am always out shooting and adding to my collection of images. If you see me standing on the edge of the water line or at the edge of a sea cliff, please come up and say hi. (If I'm on the edge of a sea cliff best not to suprise me)
There is always something special about shooting slide film and waiting for your express post pack to arrive back from the lab so you can see all the crazy and wonderful colours slide gives you.
With the birth of digital cameras has seen a lot of new photographers emmerge from the woodwork as the high cost of shooting film and buying a panoramic camera set it outside the everyday enthusist.
In the last few years with the birth of the 1ds Mark II and now the 5D Mark II film has stiff competition.
I now shoot both at a professional level with my landscape work and each has their strengths and no real weaknesses.
Fuji GX617 (90mm f5.6)
When I first started out I had a good old trusty Fuji G617 with the fixed 105mm lens. Then a buddy of mine (Christian Fletcher) put his GX617 up for sale and I snapped it up. I recently bought back my trusty Fuji G617.
Fotoman 6x24 (110mm Symmar f5.6)
At the end of 2008 I decided to treat myself and buy the unique Fotoman 6x24 medium format camera. Fitted with a 110mm Symmar f5.6 Schneider lens the camera is a dream to use and the ultra long image you get is amazing.
Canon 5D Mark II (24-70 f2.8 and 70-200 f2.8)
Last but not least I own and shoot a lot with my digital SLR. With a digital camera and a panoramic setup you can shoot and replicate any film format you like. lots and lots of fun and its all cost free. Got to love that.
My work ?
The majority of my collection is shot on Velvia slide film. I love the ability to capture that colour. But since the birth of high end digital cameras I am shooting more and more with my digital outfit. Stitching images to create wide angle panoramic images. I still love shooting film and will do so until the day comes when they decide not to make film anymore. Thats will be a sad day !
My website ?
At this point in time I unfortunately don't have a physical gallery. My site is my portal to the great wide world. My site is frequently updated with new images, content and products. I write frequently on my "Blog" and post new images. Even if they dont make the main site. I discuss new topics from camera gear to experiences I have out in the field to amusing stuff I come upon or against with running my business.
