Photographic Services

I’m available to photograph sports events, meetings, kids parties and pretty much anything else. Just email me to discuss your photographic needs.

The whys and where’s

Since I was a kid, knocking around the hills and Mountains of Arthurs pass and then further afield I have always taken lots of photos – however, I have found it gets a little depressing just filling, first filing cabinets, and now terabites of hard drives, without an outlet.

So several years ago I set up this website to showcase some of my better (?) images for peoples viewing pleasure! It also serves as a travel log and depository for some of my travel articles, musings and links to interesting / helpful sites. I live and work around Sumner, Christchurch where I work as a self employed gardener, mostly working on the hills around Sumner and Redcliffs. In winter I like to photograph the local Sumner Rugby club games on Saturdays. In summer it's a bit of sailing and anything else that catches my eye.
