I’m delighted to welcome you!
My desire is to create depth; in connection and community that stems from Unity. You are a co-creator with me in this process. Yes!
I’ll share a bit about me and my passion for photography that has inspired me to share my journey here with you. I consider every one of you a valuable encounter and although we may not have met face to face, here we are meeting for the first time. It’s my pleasure!
Capturing life through a lens delves into the multifaceted perspectives one experiences and subsequently shares through a still representation. Moments that encapsulate a feeling, invoke emotion and express authenticity is a form of honouring life as it unfolds without words.
As a child I was curious about what could be achieved with a click of a button. With traditional roll film, the anticipation of waiting to see photographs was part of the process, which has now shortened to seconds. I remember experimenting with my mum’s Canon at family events, walks in nature and amusing myself in the garden snapping away at flowers, bees and butterflies. It has since developed into something I’ve come to appreciate on a much deeper level; an immense appreciation of beauty in all things.
Investing in my own first Canon DSLR was an opportunity to expand upon my interest and deepen my curiosity of the multifaceted views I perceived through my eyes, to the images captured on camera. I enjoy trusting in the process, the moment that sparks inspiration that is co-created to produce an image that is bursting forth with life and beauty; timeless.
Travelling for many years in Central and South America invited a new dynamic to photography for me; exotic, wild landscapes, dramatic city scenes, festivals of colours, faces among faces of the many people I met and met from a distance, animals, birds and wildlife, meeting them all for the first time and forming a collection of experiences that could speak the words I could not.
A free spirited explorer, writer and entrepreneur, I feel most at home in nature; standing still on a hilltop, breathing in mountains, jungle, coastal, or deserted landscapes; macros of wildflowers, insects and plant life. I’m humbly grateful for the opportunities my travels have presented me with and the beauty I’ve met in all forms of expression; people, places, nature and landscapes.
I warmly invite you to delight in moments of sacredness with me in the Gallery.
I share personal stories of my travels on the Blog, as well as inspired writing co-created with my pictures. I promote awareness of causes close to my heart such as the empowerment of indigenous communities, environmental and nature based projects creating an ethical, sustainable future in alignment with Mother Earth as the provider of life. If you wish to view prints available to invite into your home space check out the Flower Sanctuary.
With gratitude and blessings for your journey here today.
