National Photographic Portrait Prize
Honoured to be selected for the fourth time in the National Photographic Portrait Prize, with my portrait Blue Tongue.
This image of Annabelle and Dakota captures a pivotal moment in their journey into adolescence — a space between innocence and self-discovery. Part of my ongoing series Tween Twilight, it reflects my fascination with the fleeting transition from childhood to teenhood — something I’m witnessing in my own daughter and remembering from my own past.
I first spotted them hanging out in town, struck by their bold friendship. I raced home to grab my camera, telling them: “Don’t go anywhere!”
The opening night at the National Portrait Gallery in Canberra was a beautiful celebration of Australian photography.

Australian Life
Honoured to be part of Australian Life — one of the country’s largest photography prizes.
For over 20 years, both amateur and professional photographers have shared images that capture the unique spirit of Australia. From the epic to the intimate, the harsh to the fragile, these photos tell the many stories of Australian life.
Thrilled to have my image Hookah Horizons selected as one of 30 finalists to be exhibited outdoors at Circular Quay.
Captured over the summer holidays, this photo shows an Australian family enjoying a picnic, with the father smoking a traditional hookah. Part of theSummer Highwayseries, it reflects the vibrant blend of cultural traditions and Australian beach life, where families picnic, play and connect.
