ABOUT

Creative director + fashion / beauty / conceptual photographer, stylist and designer currently based in Perth, Western Australia working full time under both my own name and for art direction and design studio forks open doors.

Like Valentino with a hand grenade? ...is one way to describe my design stylings. Teaming high fashion aesthetics with rock’n’roll attitude and old style punk integrity, it's design with bite…and a grain of salt wink I have an insane passion for music, fashion and art and my work I believe, is both a reflection and an outlet for this.

Simply put - I'm an art director / image maker ... I'm not so much interested in the 'capturing' of images so much as designing them! With a background in creative advertising design (art direction), illustration and fashion where the the concept is key, my photography becomes another medium for me to execute these ideas. Either working from a brief for a client or for one of my own creative projects, I art direct the concept, look and style in my photography (unless otherwise indicated) and the concept / communication design aspect of the image is the most important aspect of the work for me. I spend a great deal of time and energy conceptualizing and designing an image, as well as often making props and accessories before I shoot it, doing all post-production retouching and image manipulation work also.
