The Collections
Shaped by looking slowly through shifting atmosphere and discovered geometries, these collections explore a connection to place that moves between clarity and ambiguity—where the landscape is not only seen, but continually perceived.
Trees in Mist
On certain mornings in Hawke’s Bay, the fog settles over the valleys long before the first light breaks. Shot from the hills above, these images capture trees emerging slowly through the mist like quiet punctuation in a landscape still writing itself. It is a look across a world in the process of becoming visible, where the fog doesn’t obscure the land, but simply reveals it in an entirely different way.
Above the Fog
There are mornings in the hills when the valleys fill with a dense ceiling of cloud and the familiar world below completely disappears. Shot from well above the weather, these images capture the higher ridgelines emerging like isolated islands in a vast, quiet, and strangely weightless landscape, where a simple change in elevation alters everything.
Still Waters
There is a particular quality to inland water on a still morning, holding the light quieter and more contained than the open sea. Shot at the edges of lakes and tarns, these images capture the hour when the surface is barely moving and the air is perfectly still. Whether the reflection is crisp or the mist arrives to soften the view, both conditions belong to this quiet, freshwater world.
Mirrored Waters
On the stillest mornings, the water becomes a second sky where mountains double, trees invert, and the worlds above and below meet in perfect symmetry. These images capture that precise mirroring, catching the fleeting moment when a reflection becomes just as real as the physical object it reflects.
Coastal Edge
At the edge of the land, the ground tells its own story through rock platforms worn by centuries of tides, boulder fields, and channels cutting through wet sand. Shot close in, these images are grounded firmly in the coastal surface, looking through the immediate terrain toward the horizon rather than scanning the view from a distance.
Landscapes by Location
The following galleries are organised by place rather than perception — earlier work from specific journeys and regions. Some images here don't appear in the collections above. Worth exploring if a particular location draws you.
Hawke’s Bay
North Island, New Zealand
South Island, New Zealand
Take One Home
Selected images from these collections are available as fine art prints. If something here has stayed with you, it can stay with you properly.
