Every individual has a unique role to play in creating lasting change.

Ethical
Transparency: Communicate is the key. • Clients are guided through the process every step of the way. • Prices and services are clearly communicated. • Questions are always welcome.
Collaborating with Clients: Collaborating with clients is essential in the creative process. The sharing of a vision and ideas make the experience more personal and respectful.
Consent: I will always seek permission from subjects, especially in sensitive situations.
Confidentiality: Confidentiality is maintained of personal information and/ or photography of sensitive subjects.
Representation, Inclusion, diversity:
My aim is to promote inclusivity and I welcome subjects of different ethnicities, groups, body types, ages, and backgrounds to be photographed.Cultural Sensitivity: I am mindful and respectful of cultural differences, and understand the importance of image representation in various cultures.
Continuous Learning: Learning leads to growth. I am constantly working to improve my business through education.

Sustainable
Environmentally Friendly Choices: I use sustainable materials and methods whenever possible. This includes choosing rechargeable batteries over single use, minimising waste during photoshoots and recycling where possible.
Local Collaboration: Working with local vendors and businesses to reduce my carbon footprint and support the community. I often work in conjunction with other local businesses. Including partnering with other Photographers. All my retouching work is done in house within Australia.

Social
Social change through acts of kindness, like helping others, positively influences individuals and communities. It’s important to give back where you can. Over the years I have donated my time to environmental, sporting and social causes.
My philosophy is simple:
Be kind to mother earth, to others and to yourself.
