Yeah Im Still Here.

Well you may think things here have been rather quiet over the last month or two and for that I do apologise. Behind the scenes I have been flat out working on a new project for the Whakatane Summer Arts Festival which runs in conjunction with the Molly Morpeth Canaday Art Awards. As a guest exhibitor I have been developing a new series of images that reflect the trials, changes and emotions we all experience throughout life's journey.

No, sorry but I cannot give you a preview just yet as its a series of six to eight images I plan to keep under wraps until the festival so you may just have to come along to the show in January next year for a look. All I can say is that these images are a new and exciting development in my photographic journey which I hope will prove to be better than anything captured to date.

See you there.

Kodak Gold Awards 2009

Well the results of the 2009 National Kodak Gold Awards are in and this Whakatane photographer has scooped a silver award for Weddings and a Gold award for portraiture.


After achieving three silver awards in last years competition, the gold was a sort after and now a welcome addition to the trophy cabinet.


Silver Wedding Award: Russel and Anna at Ohope Golf Course.
Fantastic day and many thanks to you both.

She was a great model and a pleasure to photograph.
