I’m a photographer and videographer based in Whaingaroa - Raglan, and specialise in adventure, social and environmental photography. Born and raised in Aotearoa, I whakapapa to Peru, Scotland and Ireland. With a background in photojournalism and documentary photography, the photos I create have a natural aesthetic and authentic feel.

I love outdoor adventure and working in natural environments. Whether in big surf, dense forest, mountains or blue water sea voyages, I have the ability to work in any location.

With people and environment, my work speaks to the cultural diversity of the people of Aotearoa. I aim to inspire others to feel proud of our place in the world and motivate them to help look after it.

It’s important to connect with people and their stories. To help share their ideas and experiences with the world. It is through the art of storytelling that we find our identity and help communicate our goals, values and aspirations.

If you share these goals and values as well, then please get in touch to talk about how we can tell your story.
