Back burn, 2025

Remnants found in The Paddocks. His horns remind me of a crown

June and August 💫

Persephone Rising responds to a shifting climate and a fraying sense of seasonal certainty. This year, the temperature has remained 2.3 degrees above average, and by mid-May, when frost would usually signal the arrival of winter, I am instead surrounded by dry earth and dying plants.

My first ever zine Persephone Rising is available via my website. $40 AUD The work was made hurriedly over the extended summer and all profits from sales will go directly to @warriors4wildlife who support wildlife and their carers.

I submitted my an article for my PhD (writing is not my strong point) now I cannot stop photographing….

Happy world Bat appreciation day 🖤

I love photographing when I am deep the teaching semester because I have to think of my own advice. Trying to help students be open to reflexivity and nuance. And that sometimes you to just love an image because it makes you feel something

On the precipice of winter

March in The Paddocks

I picked up my rolleiflex after 7 or so years. The format really defined so much of the portrait work I used to do that once I shifted to large format I doubted I’d ever use the camera again. It’s been lovely to be proven wrong. I still don’t have a scanner but kind of love the curls of the film

Two older favourites from the ongoing series The Paddocks

Early fog in luk (eel) season and a curious bystander watching me get the shot

c4journal.com/phenomena-mo... Really lovely review of Phenomena up on C4 journal today. I particularly appreciate the attention Jack gave to the image of the Kangaroo. That image is so important to the work as a whole and I was thrilled it made it in the edit.

5 years ago we brought Shadow home to heal our broken hearts. I’ve spent much more time cuddling him than photographing him but I do love this image that made it into Extraordinary Experiences

It seems ridiculous to share large format photos on a phone screen but I’m hoping they will be printed in the near future 💫

The paddocks 2023 An image I really love that has never found a home in book or exhibitions.

Still dreaming of winter….

Winter 2023

Diptych from 2020. Making this on the photocopier at work was the first time I considered putting my work into book form. Getting ready for a new semester, looking forward to being inspired by the possibilities of what students can make.

I’ve been asked to put together a submission for The Paddocks and though I don’t love the admin it’s good to take stock and look through the work. First image is a selection of what I’ve made, second image is a 1840 map of the western port district in which the paddocks are identified

Feeling somewhat desperate for winter to arrive

I get asked sometimes what the little aberrations and dots are in my landscape. In this particular one it was butterflies 🖤

Wild kangaroo at The Paddocks , 2025 Approaching the middle of my PhD focused on these sweet, social misunderstood beings. Am learning their communicative cues and have found some Kangaroos will patiently let me photograph them with large format 🖤

Works in progress and night walks to keep me sane in Biderap season ( high summer)

Nice to be starting fresh here

bsky.app/profile/did:... A good spot to start connecting with photographers on this app. Thanks @flakphoto.news

🖤 large format and animals

I’m liking the feeling of re-discovering old and new photos for this app. Feels much less self conscious than Instagram

In our Shifting Landscapes Film Series, four storytellers respond to uncertainty and loss in the places they call home, each holding both catastrophe and love as our landscapes change and disappear. https://buff.ly/3VYHZ8g
