who am I

I am a commercial lifestyle photographer living in Brunswick, Melbourne.

With past two decades in the scientific sector, I embarked to do what really brings sparks in my eyes, image making.

I have 13 years of photography experience and hold a Certificate IV in Photography and Digital Imaging from RMIT (2023).

Authenticity, belonging and collaborative work summarise my practice. My work wants to showcase who the people I photograph are about, their brand and message. I frame spaces with personality, colour and mood instilled with style and design. Film, fashion editorial and fine arts inform my professional practice.

When I'm not creating visual stories, you'll find me exploring illustration, writing, analog photography, cheering at my two kids' soccer matches, lifting weights in a group training session or occasionally dancing at a music event.

what I do

I produce images within the commercial and lifestyle, working with people and interiors. I imprint authenticity and editorial feel to every work I do.

I enjoy photographing people in their places where they feel more comfortable and themselves, for that reason I offer on location branding and headshot sessions.

I work with interior designers, home builders, landscapers and architects looking to showcase their portfolio. I craft lifestyle branding images for creatives, business owners and organisations. I absolutely love working for non-for profit organisations and fully customise the service for the people who are here to make the world a better place.

I don't do cookie-cutter. Every project is a unique canvas—meticulously crafted. I'm obsessed with quality, design, and the subtle details that transform a good image into an impactful one.

I work on location half or full day. During our location scouting meeting, I like organising a mood board and image listings of the shots that need to get done. We also discuss a bit more about what aspects of the project you want to highlight thru the imagery. I we are lucky to see each other on the day of the shoot we can sign off images as we go and collaborate with ideas to create even more impactful images for your brand kit or business image library.
