AN ADELAIDE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

There’s nothing like the enthusiasm of youth. Within moments of arriving at Mike’s house on the morning of the wedding I knew this was going to be a super fun day, the banter between Mike and his 4 groomsmen was top shelf and I instantly felt like one of the gang (albeit the elder statesman […]

Stephen and his best man Robin met when they were 6 years old. As neighbours in Athelstone their friendship was based on riding bikes around the streets and the vacant block of land that is now a petrol station. 27 years later, at 7 in the morning, we returned to the streets of Athelstone to […]

There’s nothing quite like falling asleep in a tent. Nothing but a thin layer of fabric separating you from the magic of the Australian bush; the kangaroos, emus, wombats, platypi, dingos and deadly spiders. Naught but a totally ineffective and stupidly thin piece of fancy plastic protecting you from the elements of rain, wind and […]

When I shoot a wedding there’s normally a pretty big contrast between the respective houses where the bride and groom are getting ready. The guys’ place is generally pretty relaxed, just a few dudes kicking back and ironing shirts; whereas the bride’s house is a hotbed of hair and make-up, cars arriving, flowers being delivered, […]

Rain. Not enough of it and it’s bad for the farmers, too much and it’s the same problem. The comparatively wet and cool 12 months we’ve just had might be causing all sorts of headaches for SA winemakers but the flipside is lush green lawns and super picturesque vines and rolling hills which are perfect […]

Avid readers of my blog will know that I don’t particularly love spiders. Around this time last year I was fending off huntsmen and euthanising rebacks at my place in Firle, I’ve since moved to Athelstone and this past weekend saw me return to my redback slaughtering ways. After smiting two of these fearsome creatures […]

On Saturday I had the pleasure of documenting the wedding day of Emma and Scott, a couple of basketball lovers who also love combi-vans. And each other. As luck would have it Scott was actually my team mate on the first basketball team I ever played for – I was 9 years old and he […]

As Rob’s giant hand engulfed mine to bid me farewell on Sunday night I felt that I’d been part of something special. The stunning day ran as perfectly as a wedding can, but less than 3 weeks earlier things weren’t looking quite as promising. Rob (a Canadian) met Laura (an Adelaidean) at a hostel in […]

The year was 2007. I was in the lounge room of my Tabernacle St flat in London when I heard the noise. It was a noise that hard drives aren’t supposed to make and the next thing I knew my computer wasn’t recognising the device. I tried everything, I called in an expert, I scoured […]

On Sunday I made my debut on the stage that is Open Water Swim Racing. After winter basketball finished a few guys from my team, The Savoury Shapes, decided that we should keep getting together on a weekly basis to socialise and be active so the Savoury Shapes Swimming Club was created (actually, I think […]
