Where it all began…
In 1988, I graduated with distinction from the Queensland College of Art in Morningside (ASSOC DIP Photography). In 2015, I completed a Bachelor of Media (Film and Television) at the University of Southern Queensland Springfield campus, also with distinction.
Based in Toowoomba, I now travel around South East Queensland, offering commercial photographic services upon request. I also conduct photography lessons, workshops, and online Zoom tuition.
