Photography

Conferences, festivals, activations and everything in between.

Natural, energetic event photography that captures the people, atmosphere and moments that make an event memorable.

I’ve photographed events across Canada, Australia and New Zealand, from large-scale forums and conferences for organisations including AWS, Macquarie Bank and Air New Zealand, to smaller festivals, community gatherings and brand activations.

My approach is unobtrusive and people-focused. I’m looking for the big moments, but also everything happening around them: the conversations, reactions, details and small interactions that give an event its character.

Conferences & Corporate

From keynote stages and panel discussions to networking and behind-the-scenes moments, I photograph the full rhythm of a conference without getting in the way of it.

Two women having a conversation and drinks on a rooftop terrace in an urban setting.
Two people standing in front of an orange backdrop with instructions for taking selfies and printing photos. The man on the left is smiling, holding a playful cardboard hat, and the woman on the right is holding a paper mustache prop near her face. The backdrop displays photo strips, instructions, and hashtags for an AWS summit event.

FESTIVALS + COMMUNITY

Festivals need something a little different: atmosphere, movement and personality. I’m looking for the moments that make people wish they had been there.

Two women embracing each other warmly, smiling, with an emotional connection, in a cozy indoor setting with other blurred people in the background.
A man with dark hair and a beard carrying a young boy on his shoulders at an outdoor event or festival. The boy is pointing to something in the distance and appears excited. The background shows other people, trees, and some blurred lights.

ACTIVATIONS + BRAND EVENTS

For brand activations and launches, I balance candid event coverage with clean, usable imagery of the brand, environment and guest experience.

Silhouettes of people dancing and enjoying the sunset at the beach with ships on the water.

Behind the scenes

THERE WHEN IT MATTERS. OUT OF THE WAY WHEN IT DOESN’T.

I’m used to working in fast-moving environments where schedules change and important moments happen quickly. I work quietly, anticipate what’s coming next and make sure the people, atmosphere and details are covered without turning the event into a photoshoot.
