Alpine 1/7 Ed. 3 of 100

In my last few years of living in Melbourne, I’ve come to understand a culture I wasn’t exposed to in my rural NSW hometown. Every year snow enthusiasts, tourists, sports professionals and winter lovers flock to the fields from around the state, making the most of our short snow season.

When picturing an Australian landscape, red clay, eucalyptus trees, blue skies and endless horizons may come to mind. ‘Alpine’ showcases a hidden aspect of an Australian lifestyle, which juxtaposes this common perception.

I wanted to encapsulate the relationship between human and the mountain range; magnifying just how small we are in relation to the environment around us, and also creating a sense of appreciation that the ski-goers have for the slopes.

Growing up on acreage in rural New South Wales, I often spent my afternoons after school wandering around the countryside on pushbike or foot, capturing the landscape with my Dad’s film tape camera and experimenting with basic video editing programs. Not knowing at the time, this was later to become the foundation for a passion for landscape photography.With a strong desire to immerse myself in the art and music scene, I relocated to Melbourne to pursue a dream of film. During my studies of a Bachelor of Film & Television at Swinburne University in Melbourne, I became intrigued with the aerial perspective, seizing any opportunity to capture photography from the sky.Progressively over the university course, I naturally gravitated away from film and closer to photography. I worked professionally in the field of aerial photography in Melbourne, and after a long stint, I decided to pursue a lifestyle of travel instead. In recent times my focus has been primarily on capturing photography from my travels for fine art prints.My artistic style continues to develop as I find my niche and which aspects of photography I enjoy the most. Generally, my work showcases landscapes in its powerful form, with a limited presence of people and/or animals. Visually I am attracted to symmetry, shapes, and patterns.
