PHOTOGRAPHER'S STORY (featuring @tattoodjay)

54040_468145343207203_1263992553_o.jpg

''I am originally from New Zealand, a country surrounded by beautiful beaches and the most stunning scenic landscapes and mountains. However, for over 33 years now I have lived abroad. I have lived in a total of 9 different Countries and visited over 60 countries each having its own special customs, cultures, religions and attractions all of which combined makes each of them so unique and special in its own way, good or bad depending on one’s perspective.

I started my photography Journey in my late teens when an Uncle gave me a film camera and some lessons, well quite a few lessons actually and also helped me to develop my film in his darkroom at home. I continued with film photography for about 10 years, until one day, whilst moving to another location, my box with all my camera gear went missing.

When the “point and shoot” digital cameras came onto the market, I did own a few, but never really got back into photography till 2007. At that point I started with a Fujifilm Bridge Camera, later upgrading to a Pentax DSLR which I used for a few years.

A few Years back I switched to a Sony Mirror Less starting with the A6000 and have just recently upgraded to the Full Frame A7iii as my main camera and the Sony A6500 as my backup/second camera when needed.

Although I have had prints sold and displayed on a few Magazines and printed larger for the Local Bank and Train Station, photography remains primarily a hobby for me. My favourite subjects are Landscape and Cityscape photography in Milford CT where I live as well as in NYC where I work. There is no shortage of stunning architecture and breathtaking landscapes all around, perfect scenes for awesome photography.''
