Welcome to my corner of the world, where the beauty of wildlife and nature takes centre stage.
I’ve had a deep love for the natural world for as long as I can remember, and my passion for capturing
its wonders through nature photography began at a very young age. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of witnessing
and preserving the breathtaking moments that nature offers. If, like me, you share a love for the great outdoors
and its incredible creatures, I hope that this wildlife photography website inspires you and reminds you of the beauty that surrounds us all.
Thank you for visiting, and I look forward to sharing my journey with you.
About Me
As a dedicated wildlife photographer, I specialize in capturing the beauty and diversity of Australian nature through wildlife photography. From elusive threatened species to iconic fauna, there are many challenges still to be tackled. A significant proportion of our native wildlife are bats, and I have taken a special interest in these mammals. I have a PhD from the University of Queensland, Australia and have worked across many parts of Australia with various Government departments and also a private environmental consultant. My wildlife photography has always been an important part of my work, and I try to indulge my passion as often as possible.
Most of the galleries on this site feature Australian wildlife, although there is also a representation from other countries as well.
Many of my photographs are donated to support non-profit conservation organizations, helping to raise awareness and inspire action. Explore the photo galleries to discover captivating portraits of native wildlife, from delicate insects to secretive nocturnal mammals.
