Some great news from the 2017 Capture Magazine Emerging Photographers Competition: my landscape series, AustrAlien (it was a last minute name, soz), has been commended. It's a huge honour to be recognised in such a prestigious comp and to be up there with Australia's best up and comers. Check out the winning series below.

The fine folks over at The Creators Project, a division of VICE, have chosen one of my images as one of their favourites from the 92 finalists in the Adventure Handbook Photo Competition. Finally, I feel like a DO and no longer a DON'T.

AS SEEN ON
After picking up silver in the 2015 International iPhone Photography Awards, one of my images has made its way around the web. It's been spotted on the above publications and more. Not a bad result at all.

My first photography job, the lookbook I shot with Christian Kimber is out in the world and the world seems to be enjoying it. Our work has been spotted on news and lifestyle publications, as well as high profile fashion sites in the Netherlands, America and Australia. Well mad.
