I’m in business to bring back nature. I also happen to be a photographer.
I won’t bore you with a story of the first time I picked up my great aunt’s camera and heard my artistic calling. I’m not that kind of photographer. I’m a scientist at heart. I take photos, guide business owners, teach courses and create impact in my own business with a specific outcome in mind: to show people and businesses how to improve their impact on the planet.
I have an Honours degree in Zoology and worked as an environmental scientist for more than a decade. I still think like a scientist. Strategy, tangible action and measurable results are the tools I use to create.
But environmental science and photography aren’t all that different. They’re both acts of preservation, and they can both be acts of service.
Living on Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung Country, also known as the Macedon Ranges, near Melbourne, Australia, I’m surrounded by thriving forests, gullies and native birdlife. I feel really lucky to live in such a natural environment. And equally motivated to protect and restore the parts that I can.
My long term plan is to leave a legacy of conservation land to the community, and create a stewardship model for others who want to do the same.
