My lens is my compass, my camera the guide! Quality photography & video services.

Outside of my photography, I volunteer as a bus driver for Hawkesbury Neighbourhood Aid a couple of times a month, taking some of the Hawkesbury’s seniors on outings they might not otherwise get to enjoy. Last Friday’s trip was to Sculpture by the Sea at Bondi, and what a day for it!
Between looking after my passengers, I managed to grab a few frames of the incredible works on show: there was some outstanding pieces, and I was sorry I did not have more time to appreciate them in full.
Of course, the best artist on the coast is still Mother Nature. The swell was pumping along the cliffs, sending up spectacular spray, and the turquoise water crashing around the headlands was every bit as captivating as the sculptures. I even caught a couple enjoying the show from the rocks as a wave exploded in front of them.
It was a great day out for everyone, and I’m already looking forward to the next trip.

Putting the fun into fundraising!
I had the honour of donating my time and expertise as photographer at Cocktails for a Cause at Enzo's Cucina Dural, on Thursday evening. The night was raising funds for Pink Ink Australia, an amazing organisation that helps people rebuild after the aftermath of breast cancer.
Their message was on show all night: easing trauma, turning scars into strength and restoring dignity.
The room was a sea of pink, from the balloons to the dresses to the cocktails.
There was singing (Ascendo Entertainment), dancing, auctions and laughter that came from the belly, the kind that closes your eyes and squeezes your sides.
The cocktails and food kept flowing, and so did everyone's generosity.
All this for a cause on a very serious matter. It amazes me how, we, as humans use fun to deal with topics that can be tragic. I was truly humbled by the people who are behind Pink Ink and the people whom they have helped.
Nights like this reminds me why I love event photography. You can’t stage joy like this; you can only be ready when it happens.

"After the Ball"
Every fairytale has a chapter nobody paints.
Not the dancing, not the glittering entrance, but the quiet interlude before heading home.
The music has faded, the shoes have come off, and there’s just the water, the last of the light, and a moment to yourself.
That’s what I wanted to find here.
I placed the light low and behind our Cinderella, so it backlit the wind in her hair and spilled across the water like moonlight, then let the shadows take care of everything else.
Black and white felt right, because this story is told in glow and silhouette rather than colour.
Some of my favourite portraits happen in the pause between the big moments.
