2021 – Portrait
This photo came to be as an exploration of life’s major milestones, and how these changes are approached by other cultures. Every piece of jewellery that this Maasai woman is wearing tells a story about her life and these stories are totally unique to herself. She has a piece of jewellery for every stage of her life and she wears those experiences proudly.
2018 Commercial
This image is of the cube houses, located in Rotterdam. These houses are one of the most iconic attractions in the city, so I wanted to find a new angle to photograph them that perhaps hadn’t been done before and show off their interesting structure. In order to capture this perspective, I found myself wandering into the courtyard between the houses and pointing my camera towards the sky. The bright yellow colour of the houses and the repeating pattern of the windows creates visual interest, which makes it easy to get immersed into their distinctive charm.
2018 - Nature
Everything seemed to come together for this image and I just happened to be in the right place at the right time. I was originally trying to photograph a pack of Wild Dogs, when my Safari group happened upon this pair of courting Giraffes. Luck was definitely on my side; I had two great subjects to photograph, the sun was setting low over the horizon, creating deep oranges in the sky, and a small flock of birds took flight from the trees just as I was pressing the shutter. The thing I love most about this image, is it reminds me to stop and appreciate the world around me and that sometimes the best moments in life are spontaneous.
