A little bit about me:

  • My niche obsession is exploring, photographing and writing about retro hotels and kissaten in Japan

  • I collect old and unusual cameras

  • I produced, shot and edited a short documentary about a community of ocean swimmers in Australia. You can watch it here.

  • I’m a HUGE Formula 1 fan #GR63

  • I love to share free photography education. Photography changed my life so I feel a duty to pay it forward.

I’m always open to discussing potential projects and collaborations. Please contact me.
