When did the photography bug bite? Photography is an important part of my life. Ever since I can remember I have loved capturing precious moments. My earliest photographs were portraits of friends and family.
Why do you enjoy photography? I enjoy freezing a moment in time, capturing images that are fun and full of expression. I also enjoy the challenge and believe, as Plutarch did that - "The mind is not a vessel to be filled but a fire to be kindled."
Where can I buy your photos? I have a red bubble store, a stock photo account with fotolia and a profile on gekko images. I enjoy doing photography courses and photography challenges. If you would like to purchase or rent an artwork for your business or organisation please contact me.

What education have you received in Photography and Design? I have a Bachelor of Education with a specialisation in Information Technology and Communication from the University of Wollongong. As part of my course I studied multimedia education, photography, website design. During this time I borrowed a digitial camera from the Curriculum Resources Center and used the photos taken in assignments and personal websites. Later I purchased my first digital camera and started selling photos to publications and stock photography agencies. I have upgraded cameras several times since then and although I love to shoot with film it is through digital photography that I was able to experiment and learn through trial and error.
What Workshops have you attended?
I have attended a number of workshops in Wollongong and Sydney as well as online workshops and taking part in the Adobe Roadshows over the past few years.
Some of the off-line workshops I have enjoyed include:
* WEA Digital Camera Workshop 1 with Alex Ball - introduction to digital camera technology, colour temperature, exposure, composition, lighting, weekly assignments and feedback
* WEA Digital Camera Workshop 2 with Alex Ball -digital asset management and workflow, the Digital Darkroom, weekly assignments,composition, light meters, metering mode, etc.
