About me

I've been many things before I became a photographer. 

I've got a degree in Cultural Anthropology, I was a chef and a dive guide in Africa among other things. None of them made me truly happy and I couldn't see myself doing them for the rest of my life.

Then I moved to Australia with my girlfriend. I got a job I hated but which paid the bills. And one day I came across a website explaining how to make a simple matchbox pinhole camera.

In retrospect, that website changed my life. One camera led to another and then another. Photography became my hobby, passion, and eventually my job, although the beginnings were not easy. 

I didn't know what sort of a photographer I would be but I decided to stay away from weddings. Wedding photography seemed uninspiring, full of posed and cheesy images.

Well, I was very adamant about not photographing weddings until I photographed one and things changed again. Now I shoot 30-35 weddings per year and love it. Every wedding day pushes me creatively in ways I never imagined. Weddings combine fashion, portraiture, documentary, event and product photography. They are never dull, and never repetitive. Every one is an opportunity to create or capture a stunning photo and I get very excited when that happens. 

I believe every couple deserves authentic, happy, creative photos. Photos that make them feel and remember and I’ve photographed nearly 300 happy couples to date.
