Just came back to Australia after a great time in New York. Took meetings, did pre production on my feature "Forget to Remember", walked the streets, ate in world class restaurants and bars. just so amazing. here are some frames from my time there. 

Im so proud to announce that i am now part of the cohort of the worlds best Food Photographers. Worthy forums and comps between photographers balance to create a platform to improve and enhance all participants work.

Thank you Foodelia.

yes i have taken a holiday. 2nd one in 10 years. honestly now i know what they mean about holidays. my mum just passed away and i needed to go find some great food, some glorious sunshine, and see my bestie's who now live in Monaco. 

italian food is the max. simple, some modern, some classic, but oh so good.

i am excited about upcoming projects which im writing myself and some amazing pitches that are in for others. i live eternally grateful. i love my job.

i have just returned returned from THE most amazing project with World Wide Mind and Warwick Thornton the acclaimed Director DP. working in the vast territories in far north Western Australia, in a small coastal town, Lombadina, on his docu- drama-food show 'The Beach' as his Props Buyer, Stand by Props, Food Stylist and Stills Photographer. i also cooked for the crew whcih for me was amazing as i cook every minute i'm not shooting. Co-pro with SBS and NITV, it will be on screens as soon as possible, and then i can share the rest of my images. 

every time i come to New York its different. i know im different each time, whether its post job, a working trip or just to see friends and catching up with work colleagues. this time its been all food and architectire. im feeling super observational so heres a few from this trip.

ive just come from Israel and Oman so im really pumped photographically. they were incredible places with incredible jobs and people so maybe this has washed off. 

i have just finished the most incredible job for Mandarin Oriental Residences in Muscat Oman. Paul Giggle Director and Producer Keith Reid from Binyan. Honestly one of the mst beautiful places ive ever been. impossible to shoot a bad frame. 

i love these jobs. beautiful creative ideas with stunning settings. whats not to love.

i have just been to Israel for the first time to shoot Aqua Minerale for Russia. Paul Giggle Director, and Dmitriy Timonov Producer of Profilm Moscow. @mar_alexandrova was our incredible actress from Catherine the Great. those eyes.

i shot on Arri Alexa with Cooke Ananmorphic series 4 and Waterwork shot on Phantom with Masterprime 100mm Macro and Leica Sumachrons. i love different lenses for different uses. they do balance up colour wise if you test before you play. i have mixed Spherical with Anamorphic before and it works well. im of the belief to find the shot and get the best gear not conform the other way. i dont make my lenses do all the work. its the composition and sutiabilty that finds the lens. then they take it up to the next level. so much fun.

i did press packages for the designer Akira Isogawa for his paris shows a few years back. in cataloguing my stills archive i came across them. enjoy!

i just had the pleasure of shooting HondaJapan with the director Eiji Tanigawa for Green Tea films. the producer Kanta Yamaguchi is world class. Micks grips and the Russian arm was insane. thanks guys.
