Our 3 hour roadtrip to Port Stephens ended with a last-minute visit to Anna Bay. Good friend Josh stood there, taking pictures of the water while I snapped a quick photograph of him in usual stance.

New castle is and will always be my favourite place. I have been craving to be at this place do a photo project with great dresses that could fly when the wind comes. The chances hasn’t come to me, yet I did went to this place for road trip with Adalai. The girl in the picture is tourist form korean. Didn’t got the chance to speak to her but she seems to have fun with the little safari Australia.

The road less travelled? Well, I think this might be one that’s not travelled very often.

I shot this from my balcony last year. I was upgraded for no good reason at all on a cruise during January, I was not complaining. I would often head out there just to watch the water lapping up against the huge boat. Is it not just beautiful? For a while this was my phone wall paper.

I love taking aerial shots. Nothing compares to the shores of a country and the waves of the beach. The colours and landscape of that which is offered always blows my mind. You gotta squeeze every creative drop out of these moments because they uniquely will never be experienced again.

Although a cloudy and partially rainy day, I set out with friends despite all the reasons telling me its not worth going. I found myself on the central coast in NSW of Australia, where I chose to be challenged instead of disappointed. This is one of the shots that came out of that challenge. Don’t despise the day of challenge.

Two friends and I found ourself on a road trip Saturday morning for for a photoshoot for an online clothing business called ‘Garb’. Bags packed with a Canon DSLR camera and a Mavic 2 Pro with a Hasselblad camera. Needless to say we enjoyed our time and got creative with some shots on the shore of Terrigal, Central Coast, NSW Australia.

Summer is coming and Australia is excited to be hitting the beaches again. As winter comes to an end we mass to the beaches. Although not everyone likes swimming in the ocean, we do enjoy the cool ocean breeze on our face. I expect summer to be full of fun and adventures, just as life should be.

Flying my drone over palm beach Sydney saw something a bit out of the ordinary a boat flying full pace towards the cliff, luckily he stopped just before hitting and threw a line out for a fish.

This is one of my favourite shots. It captures the serene nature of this beautiful location. The exhausting trek up the headland was worth it, it is quite an exquisite view from Barrenjoey lighthouse. The pure beauty of the Northern Beaches is one of a kind.

The swell off the coast of Sydney was cutting this sail boat in and out of shot. It even made a few of us sea sick as we searched for, successfully, the migrating sperm whales in the southern hemisphere Autumn.

This photo was taken at the Watsons Bay’s lighthouse, in Sydney Australia. We took the ferry at the end of the day and then walk 20 minutes to get there. We were almost running to not miss the sunset. To get the best shot I had to go at the edge of the cliff and some people yelled at me saying it was dangerous. I used a tripod and a filter to do a long exposure shot because it was still very luminous.

Whilst at a birthday at the zoo, we walked past two of these little guys, both of which were in two different pens, separated by a wall. The only way they could see each other was when they climbed to the top of their trees and tried to reach for each other.

We were on Taronga Zoo, in Sydney, and this Giraffe was quite curious about the Opera House.

There’s only a few times each year that the full moon sets behind the Sydney Harbour Bridge in this composition, and I’d planned this shot weeks in advance. This was taken after dawn on a cold Saturday morning in between the clouds. In person the full moon is a grand sight moving quickly through the sky towards the city. In this shot I’ve tried to evoke how I felt standing there watching it balanced between these two Sydney icons, which - open disclosure - required some adjustment to the moon size.

View of the Sydney Opera House from the Cahill Walkway after sunset. I just love the blue hour at that part of town…

It was that moment before the competition begins and I feel like they don’t really care who’s gonna win. Instead, it’s that moment when everyone is excited before jumping into the swimming pool or the sea or whatever you may want to call it. :) I love Bondi Beach!
