Qualification?
Bachelor of Arts graduate from University of New South Wales, however I don't believe this qualification says much other than that I can do write essays and turn up to attend classes!!
What pays my bills?
Experience. Wedding photography was my core business for more than 6 years, before changing the main focus to commercial photography. Other types of photography I partake include engagements, newborn babies, pets and limited sporting events.
Why do I teach?
Should Not Be a Black Art. Sometimes, the photographic community holds in all of their secrets and is very reluctant to share with beginner photographers who needs a hand. There are many reasons for this attitude, but I am one against such view.
The photographic world is dynamic and fads comes and goes, however, principles and theories of lighting stays the same, its just that they are modified differently by the artists.
As a passionate photographer I enjoy instructing people who share the same passion how to improve themselves and I have the ability push people out of their comfort zone and squeeze the best out of them.
Why attend a FHphoto workshop?
Hands On Experience. There are numerous amount of information, video, tutorials, etc on the internet. Most of these contents are free, but there is nothing more frustrating than following a tutorial online and have no-one to answer your questions.
Workshop is a place for you to build on what you know and practice new techniques and receive instantaneous feedback either from myself or other students. One thing to remember is to come with an open mind, I can lead you to water but cannot force you to drink it.
A professional, paid model is always organised for FHphoto workshops. The model will be knowledgeable on posing so we can just concentrate on yourself.
Still not enough?
Try It. I welcome anyone to attend a FHphoto workshop and if you are not satisfied of the value, I am more than happy to give you a full refund.
