Born in Bateman's Bay, NSW Australia 

​

I am a freelance photographer. My passion started when I received a Nikon for my birthday from my husband many years ago.

 

 During one of my first photography lessons a mentor told me, "this craft is less about what you see and more about how you see it". Years later after spending a large part of my life living in some of the most volatile - also some of the most beautiful areas of Papua New Guinea, I understood this with far more clarity.

 

My work is the result of a curious mind, a love for food, family, nature, undiscovered places and exploited places viewed with fresh perspective.

 

Courses in  photography by Rowan Bestmann, award winning industrial photographer.

Successfully attained a Diploma in Business Photography with a distinction and high distinction through the Australian College.
​
I love to travel, dive and I am  passionate about food and cooking. I would love to create and photograph my own cook book.
