Why am I a photographer?
It’s so simple - I love it.
I just love it.
Originally a NSW girl,
I moved up to sunny Queensland with my parents and younger sister during 2014.
When I finished grade 12 in 2016 I went up north for two years, which is where I met my partner Charlie & bought my first camera. During my first year in WA, I worked on DeGrey Station in the Pilbara region for the mustering seasons and then spent some time on a property, Riverina Station, down near Kalgoorlie.
Once I’d finished at this place, I travelled over to Broadmere station in the NT. Here I worked for a contract mustering team, KD Rural, where I got to travel to various stations and take part in their mustering season.
Returning home from my time away, I completed a Bachelor of Agribusiness, mostly remotely (thanks covid) whilst working for Charlie’s family, in an effort to broaden my knowledge of Ag.
Charlie and I now live on one of his family’s properties, “Beilberanga”, which is between Roma and Condamine.
I’ve travelled all over Queensland and interstate to Sydney to photograph corporate businesses, weddings, commercial Ag operations and families.
I would love to capture you, your business or your family. Please give me a call or get in touch - I would love to hear from you.
