Hi there!

I am an artist, photographer and video editor. I have spent more than 10 years working as a freelance creative, working extensively with organisations, entrepreneurs, professional speakers and business owners to create multi media resources.

I specialise in photographing and filming professional speakers, events and keynotes. I have worked in many of Brisbane’s most iconic spaces including The Tivoli, Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre, Brisbane City Hall, Flight Centre HQ, Cloudland, The VISY Theatre and Powerhouse, Suncorp Stadium, ABC Brisbane, Tattersalls Club, Queensland Parliament House, University of Queensland, Queensland University of Technology, Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital, Queensland Children’s Hospital along with many of Brisbane’s conference venue’s.

I have also had the privilege of photographing and filming many incredible people over that time including Dr Glen Richards (Shark Tank host and NED, Greencross), Jane Anderson (Global Brand Guru and professional speaker), Alan Jones (radio broadcaster), Ita Buttrose (Australian journalist and business woman), Davina Smith (Channel 9 News presenter), Graham ‘Skroo’ Turner (co-founder and CEO, Flight Centre), Lexy Hamilton-Smith (ABC News reporter and journalist), Lynette Palmen (OAM recipient and founder of Women’s Network Australia), Ian Smith (Australian artist and 9 times Archibald Prize finalist), Tim Robarbs (actor and TV personality), Simone de Haas (award winning theatre director and speaker), Marayke Jonkers (Paralympic swimming medallist and speaker), Michelle Worthington (international award winning author and business woman) and so many more.

I have co-produced and edited the documentary video “Ian Smith: Island and City” in 2014 with Australian artist, Ian Smith. The video documents the influence of Lamb Island on Ian Smith’s art practices both on the island itself and then on his city work in Brisbane, Queensland. This documentary video now is held as archival footage in the Australian Library of Art, State Library of Queensland.
