It’s a pleasure to meet you!
I’m a photographer and outdoor enthusiast based in Christchurch, New Zealand.
More often than not, tramping in the Southern Alps with a camera clipped on my hiking pack. Failing that, you’ll find me capturing the finest canines in Ōtautahi.
I am currently based in glorious Canterbury, pursuing some (at least I reckon) really exciting creative projects, including the Dogs of Ōtautahi. A community-spirited project to capture the many unique, 4-pawed characters in our local area.
I’m also a member of The Last Cache team, an Antarctic Expedition to tell the story of Shackleton’s lesser-known support team: The Ross Sea Party. My role is crafting designs, socials and helping in any way I can to make this expedition a success.
I hold over 10 years of experience in photography, inspired as a teenager by the rural landscapes and British wildlife. Starting my career officially in 2017, studying Photography at North East Scotland College. Followed by a degree in Marine and Natural History at Falmouth University, graduating in 2021.
Since then, I’ve had a unique blend of different jobs, from a Paddlesport Assistant in Scotland to a Nature Guide in Fiordland.
In Cullen, Aberdeenshire, I taught weekly photographic classes to 5-7 year olds whilst running landscape photography workshops for adults.
From 2022 to 2023, I had the pleasure of working and living at Glenmore Lodge on the Instructor Development Scheme.
Jumping across the ocean in 2023, I found myself as a Mountain Dispatcher at Treble Cone, then shortly became a Glowworm Cave Guide in Fiordland National Park. Eventually leading multi-day tours across the South Island.
