I first began to look seriously through a camera lens while working as a doctor on voluntary assignments in the mountains of Nepal and India. Inspired by the wonderful images and technical mastery of outdoor adventure photographer Galen Rowell and spurred on after having a photo published in a US climbing magazine I began photographing in earnest while using my skills as a doctor and climber to find ways to explore new corners of the globe.

My photos have been published in numerous Lonely Planet book titles, Australian Geographic publications, National Geographic Traveler Magazine and in Patagonia's image based outdoor clothing catalog. In 2008 I won the 'Call of the Wild' portfolio category in the internationally recognized Travel Photographer Of The Year awards.

Inspired in the first instance by the landscapes and lifestyles of the outdoor adventure world, I am currently focusing on more project-based personal editorial work and seeking those elusive editorial commissions. When not enjoying life on the road I live on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia.
