Biography: Based in Sydney, I have traveled the world extensively photographing in some of the most remote destinations, including The Arctic, Antarctica, Galapagos, Azores, Africa and the South Pacific. As a wildlife photographer I have spent hundreds of days in pursuit of different wildlife and been privileged to be up close and personal with many creatures. I have spent the last decade working with Humpback whales photographing and filming their behaviour. I have received a number of internationally acclaimed awards with works appearing in a multitude of magazines and publications.
