When asked me to shoot the stills for 's film, Made In Netball, I felt so honoured. To be a part of a piece that champions women in sports, strong community and teamwork... how could I say no?
Here are a few stills I shot for the film.

Creating on a white backdrop should never be boring. By using a warm key light on the left with a black form board on the right I had a lot of fun playing with the contrasting shadows on this shoot.
Not to mention 's top added a whole new level of texture and movement to the image too.
Shooting her portraits is always a blast.

I was updating my website recently and I came across this image I took for the production of 's Photograph 51. It was one of my favourite shots of the show.
Like many of my stills, they would not be possible without the set and lighting designers and their dedication to their work -- thank you.

What I loved about Simon's work was that he could switch on and off at the drop of a hat. As soon as the director yelled action he was in the zone and the most gruff farm boss imaginable, but off-camera he was the friendliest and told some of the best stories.

It’s NETFLIXMAS! 🍿🎄🎬✨
Huge shoutout to the crew — the production, detail, and direction that went into the setup (wait for the last slide!) was absolute *chef’s kiss*. But the real magic? The lively bunch of characters that came through and brought the whole vibe to life. It didn’t even feel like work, just pure holiday chaos in the best way possible.

It’s always fascinating to see where it all starts. ✨
I’m sharing a throwback moment to the very first table read for Heartbreak High Season 2.
For me, capturing the table read of any production is always a highlight: witnessing the team gather, seeing those first-time script reactions, and documenting the raw, collaborative energy as the cast and crew bring the story to life. It was truly the spark of the season ahead (and what a season, season 2 was. Looking forward to the 3rd)!

Swipe through to see some of the faces behind the brilliance that is Heartbreak High.
(Not pictured, but a BIG up to for asking me to shoot this. Thank you.)
