In a Nutshell...

I grew up in a humble little town in New Zealand called Te Awamutu (Tee Awa-moo-too). When I turned 18, I decided to jump the ditch and complete my studies in Sydney. After growing into big city life and developing my passions for music and photography, I met my dream girl and made her my wife! We moved to London, fell in love with coffee, whiskey, history and travel. 2 years later, our visas sent us packing back to Sydney and a year later we welcomed our first born Arlo, made the move to Nelson, NZ in 2016 and have expanded the family with 2 more kids; Finley & Koda.

As of 2018, I began to transition my photography career in to the commercial world in the form of ‘Lumiere’ and am now placing a lot of my energy and attention on growing this exciting new business.

This now leads me to make the tough decision of slowing down the wedding side of things to allow me to have more time to being a present dad and husband on weekends and summer holidays. I will still be taking limited bookings for the short term while I am still enjoying riding this wave that I have been on for the past 12 years.

Here’s to the next chapter…
