Mist in the air, sun barely up, and arenas already built, that's how the NSW State Dressage Championships began for me.
Over two days I clocked up early starts and long ones to match, I captured more than 65 dressage tests on video and shot over 750 behind-the-scene photos for Equestrian Australia.
Steaming breath in the cold air, plaited manes catching the morning sun, the quiet focus before each test, officials quietly overseeing the whole process; it's a different kind of storytelling to the competition itself.
Simply because none of this happens without the judges, stewards and officials who make it run and the body of work I captured exists to support EA's ongoing commitment to training the people who keep the sport running.
My camera just gets to be there for it.

There's a particular kind of magic that happens when someone completely new to horses meets one who's seen it all before.
Meet Tudor Fuca: model, actor, and, as of this shoot, an honorary member of the horse world.
Tudor spent his early years in Romanian countryside but had never worked with a horse in his life before stepping into the stable yard with George.
Enter George: a gentle chestnut with more patience than most humans I know, and with his wonderful owner Karen, who trusted me (and Tudor) to make this work.
What could have been an awkward first date between man and horse turned into an easy, natural partnership almost instantly.
Tudor's ease in front of the camera did the rest, that quiet, professional stillness that lets a story unfold rather than forcing it.
Add George's calm head resting against a crisp white shirt, golden late-afternoon light through bare winter branches, and a bit of stable-door framing, and we had ourselves a proper series.
Sometimes the best shoots go beyond just expertise, they're about trust, patience, and a horse willing to be the co-star.

Ebenezer Church
I'd set the drone up in the dark, half-asleep, half-doubting myself as I usually do, when that first shaft of light broke through the clouds like it was aiming straight for the old sandstone chapel below.
The camellia in full bloom didn't hurt either, bright pink against all that moody blue and gold, like the garden knew it was picture day.
Ebenezer is the oldest church in Australia still in continuous use, and hovering over it in that light, with the headstones laid out like quiet keepers of the story, you really feel it.
Two hundred years of mornings just like this one, and I got to catch a single frame of it.
Sometimes the best plan is just showing up before the sun does. This was one of those mornings.

In my mission to create outstanding portraiture I have knelt on a harbour rock whilst being crashed by waves chasing golden hour sparkle, ducked a flambé pan mid-flare in a restaurant kitchen, talked a very unimpressed cat into holding a pose, and had a horse try to eat the flowers mid-shoot.
Different briefs, different chaos, same rule: I show up, I read the moment, and I get out of the way of the story that's actually happening in front of me.
That's the bit people forget about portraiture, it's not about making everyone look the same kind of "nice."
It's a corporate headshot that actually looks like the person who runs the meeting.
It's the moody, don't-mess-with-me black and white a client didn't know they wanted until they saw it.
It's a horse and rider who trust each other enough to be in a vulnerable position and making it look natural.
It's a family who ask, "Can we add a photo with our dogs?" at the last minute.
Every one of those needs a different eye, and that's what I bring.
So, whether it's your business profile, your family album, your favourite (very opinionated) pet, or you and your horse, I tailor the session, the light, and the mood to what's actually in front of me, not a template.
