Well, sort of…the good people at Childwise have asked me to be one of their ambassadors and help promote their great work. It absolutely staggers me that one in five Australian children will be sexually abused, more often than not …

A big thank you to the guys at Australian Digital Photography, in particular Editor Greg Barton, who’s dedicated way too many pages to a photographer of my ilk in his great magazine. Anyway, if you’re at all interested in reading …

Devastating news today. Gary Andrews passed away with his wife of a few weeks, Basia, by his side. There were many goals Gaz had set for himself along the journey. First and foremost obviously was not to let the cancer …

Every time I shoot a portrait I have a vision of what the image will look like. And almost without exception the final image looks nothing like the one I had floating around in my head. Take this picture of Jesse Gerner, …

I mentioned a few posts ago that Ted.com wasn’t specifically aimed at photographers but provided pure inspiration. Well I found a photography post the other day about a French street artist JR (click on JR to go to his Ted …
