I love capturing moments that help families cherish their relationships and memories with engaging photographs. My family photo studio is located in Marrickville in Sydney’s Inner West where I’ve lived for many years.

New Born Photography – Family Photos
Corporate Photography – Personal Branding

My story:

“Since I was 15 years old I had been taking photos including developing my own film and printing photos in the darkroom. I was fascinated by the photographic process and I admired the classic portrait photographers of yesteryear as much as I did the contemporaries of the present time.

Although I embraced digital technology, I think it was my association with film that gave me an added appreciation for the preservation of one’s family history through the printed photograph. Holding an old photograph in your hand evokes memories in a different way compared to looking at images on a computer or portable device. I was lucky to be part of a family that loved photos- we had loads of albums at home. “

Your experience with us:

I understand that natural timeless photos are the result of a photographer building rapport with their subject, and I do this by partnering with you and your family in the creative process.

How will I tell your story? Create an environment you feel comfortable in, let moments unfold naturally and focus on photos that reflect you.

Candid, traditional, formal or spontaneous? Perhaps a combination of all of these, most importantly being yourself is when the magic happens. You set the pace, there’s never any hurry.

“In a nutshell I tell your story, not mine. I’m not here to promote my brand through the photos; I’m here to cater to individuals. Candid, playful, classical, or a combination of all of these.  Because of this the style of the images can be quite varied. After all the images are for my clients, not me.

The common element I strive for is to show the relationships, personalities and connection between people. I guess I also have a signature lighting style for portraiture; it’s usually very emotive yet flattering while avoiding the clichés of glamour photography. This harks back to the days when I was perfecting the contrast and tonal range of prints in the darkroom. Our cameras are digital and although editing software has replaced the darkroom we still  put a lot of time and care into preparing your photos before they are printed to ensure they look amazing.

I prefer simple, timeless images that won’t date. We don’t often use props although we’re happy to if our clients ask. For example our newborn photos are a basket and flowerpot – free zone. I think a much more meaningful photo is a newborn cradled in their parent’s arms or hands instead of being placed in a basket. I think the baby will treasure those photos more once they have grown up.”
