GUNS + HANDS
I have begun a new photo series this week focusing on different types of guns juxtaposed with a portrait of the owners hands.
Here is my first series of my Opa's rifles and hands.

WARHOL TRY HARD
I am constructing a new series of food products that are perceived as quite plain & boring. I am then going to try interpreting them in a visually interesting & powerful way in a minimal environment (not so minimal lighting set up however).
Here is my Warhol impersonation on the Campbell's Tomato Soup...
Sanpellegrino - Melbourne Fashion Festival
Found a photo from my Uni days in the Melbourne Fashion Festival Official Guide!
GAZI for Mildred Magazine
I have had the privilege to work with the girls from Mildred Magazine on their "Chowing Down" section.
We recently shot at Gazi owned by chef George Calombaris. Its a beautiful inspiring space which reflects onto the exceptional dishes served. My favourite dish on the menu is the "Bend Over Box" which is a take on the Bento Box that is served on a backgammon board.
Check out the restaurant on the corner of Exhibition St & Flinders St, and check out the review in Mildred Magazine here: http://www.mildred.co/issue-46/chowing-down/gazi/
Beards of Soundwave
This year I decided to document a few awesome beards.....
Stop-Motion Studio Test
Testing the light and playing around with shapes in the studio with Mati Munoz and stylist Greg Dennis.
We have created some pretty cool stop motion videos... watch this space...
Here is a outtake that didn't make the cut....
MonashHeart - Port to Port 2013
Back in November I filmed the MonashHeart team on their Port to Port ride.
The ride was a gruelling 400km over two days with a relentless headwind for the entire ride.
8 of the 19 riders completed the full 400km, others riding far greater distances than they have ever achieved.
The team raised over $18,000 to go towards new cardiac monitors for MoanshHeart.

Dark Side of the Moon
We had this copper device in the studio that would make perfect spherical ice-cubes. They looked stunning & somewhat reminded me of a mini death-star. I couldn't resist to take a few stills of them.
