Save our Sons Charity Walk and Gala

Save our Sons Charity Walk and Gala

Along with working on the Gala Dinner on April 1st in the Palladium at Crown, I will also be representing Crown Resorts on the final leg of the charity walk for Save our Sons on March 31st.

Being out of the office for half a day on the eve of their Gala event may not be ideal, but after meeting Ellie and seeing how passionate he is about this cause, there was no way I could say no when he asked…

On the road

‘It is a rough road road that leads to the heights of greatness’ – Seneca

  There is something about the motion, depth of field and almost three dimensional feel to image that keeps drawing me back to it.

Looking for opportunity in every experience, I took a drive to the beach as an opportunity to try something different and this image was the result.

Crossing the bridge. Walking over this bridge Reflecting on my day It didn't kill me So I must be stronger in so manys ways 18 thousand steps Has brought me to this point Today really did push me I hope I didn't disappoint As I take this photo I realise I would not change a thing As I might have missed out on this sunset I can't wait to see what challenges tomorrow will bring (at Airport West, Melbourne)

Where I get shot done.

My desk.

My home office.

My side hustle.

Where the creative process starts and ink flows onto dead trees.

Where images get a touch up or are deleted from all existence.

Cameras on display daring me to take them out. Buy my film.

A $2 notebook containing my daily pages. Simple but significant.

A framed @trent_mitchell_ photograph. Inspiration.

A rather empty calendar overlooked for a digital cloud…

Double Exposures

A new technique that I have immersed myself in recently is double exposures

  A new technique that I have immersed myself in recently is double exposures. I have been experimenting with some old favourite images of mine with some interesting results. This image combines my portrait used for the Tableaux exhibition and a shot from Nikko, Japan)

The ride

‘Up and down, up and down. No, no, no! It should be round and round, round and round. Use your entire leg muscle group to turn that pedal.’

Most of the time I am focused on a podcast while I ride, however during extended periods of an exerted effort, self talk takes over.’

‘No way is that guys faster than me, catch him! Pass him! What HR zone are you in? Can you sustain this pace?’

‘Go, go, go,…

Under the bridge

A place shared by many, but where few want to travel at night.

For some it’s a ‘secret spot’ to park before a night out. Although it’s not so secret and tickets are often the consequence.

Taxis form a queue to get permission to enter the next queue, in hopes that someone will revert to this old world method of transport and not book an Uber.

Forbidden rendezvous are not uncommon.

Limo and black…

Chef Hari A portrait I shot of Crown Executive Pastry Chef Hari Unterrainer. This image was used to introduce the incredible dessert he created for the Shared Tables Gala Ball 2016 at the Palladium in Crown. I can personally say that the dessert he created for this event was amazing.
