about
My wife's name is Gabe and together we have a dog Stella and two cats Stirling and Cyril. If you are a fan of the cartoon Archer you'll understand why I love our cats names so much. And Stella is a name that's just fun to yell. But she also has a whole lot of nick names like bean, bean-o-rino, bean tree, beaner, beany baby.. and whatever I feel like calling her.

Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is non-existent. And don’t bother concealing your thievery - celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: “It’s not where you take things from - it’s where you take them to."
- Jim Jarmusch
“Nothing is original.
I didn't grow up with a camera in my hand.. to the contrary I actually couldn't be bothered to use one because I thought it was just too much work. Then in 2008 when I was attending University and while studying in the Faculty of Architecture we were all required to take a variety of arts classes in order to present our work. So amid drawing, drafting, model building and digital design was photography. It was only once I realized the power I had behind a real camera I was hooked!
How I got started in photography
Very quickly I realized just how much there was to learn and that drove me to try new things, practice, get inspired and try the next new thing. Over the years I've tried all different types of photography and loved taking my camera along in my travels and still photograph landscapes whenever I get the chance. I discovered along my journey that I absolutely adore capturing weddings! Wedding days are always incredibly exciting and I thrive in the high of the day. Feeling so alive I knew I had found my happy place, combining photography (and now film) with the excitement and joy of weddings!
