Stories
These are personal accounts of my life as a landscape photographer — the journeys I make, the places that shape my way of seeing, and the ideas that emerge from time spent in the field. Some follow expeditions to remote places. Others are quieter, closer to home. All of them reflect what draws me to this work and what I find when I look carefully at the world through a lens.
A good place to start is the Antarctica series — Living Topography follows my passage through the Subantarctic Islands, where the boundary between landscape and life dissolves entirely, and Wild Light documents two contrasting passages through the Balleny Islands on the Antarctic Circle. Closer to home, Golden Hours: Four Mornings in the Mist explores the expressive possibilities of a familiar landscape at Te Mata Peak.
