A Professional Photographer and Commercial Pilot, based in Lake Macquarie NSW, Australia, I have been fortunate enough to combine and pursue two of my great passions, flying and photography.

With over 40 years flying experience I have had the great pleasure to fly to many of the most incredible and remote areas of Australia. My aircraft is a Cessna Cardinal 177RG. A high wing, with retractable undercarriage and no struts to interfere with the view, this amazing aircraft is ideal for aerial photography. From outback dirt strips like the Burke and Wills 'Dig Tree' site (as pictured above) to international airports and the complexity of controlled airspace, no place is inaccessible with this aircraft.

I began shooting aerials in 1992 with a Pentax 6x7 medium format film camera. In those days you never quite knew what you had until a week later, after the lab had processed your images. It certainly taught you to expose correctly and shoot selectively, as every shot cost you a dollar. So different to today's digital environment. My camera these days is a digital Pentax 645Z and I am constantly amazed at the quality produced by this camera. I still however find myself shooting very selectively. Old habits die hard.

I hope you enjoy exploring the many images here and please keep an eye out for new images being added all the time.
