They say there's no place like home - and I've found a new one at

From today, the Film in Film Construction refers to more than just motion pictures.

and I have partnered to launch a new stills division for Film Construction - a new step into the future for a company with a rich 25 year history.

I'm excited to build our team and eager for the journey to come.

Last few days to secure one of these prints before we send to the printer!

Sales close Monday 11th.

Laleh - Water Tulips

Tulips (Laleh in Persian) are the national flower of Afghanistan and the focus of this photographic project.

The distorted flowers draw parallels to the circumstances for Afghan women. The tulip appears trapped and warped, its true self and strength shielded from view. This reflects the disruption that the women and girls of Afghanistan are enduring, due to the dire political climate they now face.

Women for Afghan Women is a 20-year strong organisation that works to support women and girls in Afghanistan and the diaspora. They are the largest non-government Afghan women’s rights organisation on earth. All profits from the sale of these photographs will be donated to this worthy cause.

Each photograph is $55 (including postage within New Zealand) with all profits going directly to Women for Afghan Women. The print store can be found in the link in my bio.

The political situation evolving in Afghanistan is heartbreaking to witness. Many women are seeing their human rights rolled back. Reading about this, I've wondered what I can do to help.

Here is my latest project 'Laleh' with all proceeds going to charity Women for Afghan Women.

Tulips (Laleh in Persian) are the national flower of Afghanistan and the focus of this photographic project.

Printed on Iilford Smooth Pearl, prints are $55 with 100% of profits being donated to help women in Afghanistan.

Have a look, and see the full set of images for donation on my website.

put my “A Woman’s Place” series on the cover of this weekend’s Canvas Mag.
Means a lot to have these images delivered to thousands of homes across NZ today as Kiwis settle into the first long weekend since lockdown has been lifted.
We have had had no new cases of COVID here in NZ for the past 8 days, but the effects are still ringing shock-waves through the economy, especially the hospitality sector. Giving these women the attention they deserve means that as we return to “normal” we might have the opportunity to make some new choices for ourselves, and for women the world over.

Big thanks to for printing this, and for all the wonderful women involved.

New Project Announcement: A Woman's Place.

“A woman’s place is the kitchen” - a well known, and oft-used phrase, yet when you look around most professional kitchens and read top chef lists, why do women feature so little?

Throughout history as cooking moved beyond the home and into a more commercial world, tasks that were once dominated by female “cooks” became those performed by male “chefs”. In recent times though, things are shifting. Flicking through instagram and the pages of food magazines, I see innovative female chefs rewriting the restaurant game, using their feminine appeal to reach new audiences. I see bloggers creating cooking revolutions from their home kitchens. What was once a place of oppression, has been subverted by many women to bring them success and personal agency.

This project examines the changing role of modern women in the domestic and commercial kitchen. Each subject is a forerunner in their field, helping to defy preconceived notions of gender bias. By showcasing the women in a hyper-feminised manner, I hope to evoke reflection within the viewer, on how much has changed in this industry over the past half century, and what we still have yet to achieve.

This series was created for a group show, Women’s Work.
In light of the financial impact that COVID-19 has had, I am releasing a limited run of prints. Profits are split with each subject in hopes that it will allow them to continue to work in their field.
Hopefully you can support us.

This year I entered the NZIPP - the New Zealand Institute of Professional Photography awards for the first time and I walked away with four Bronzes. I’m pretty proud of this achievement! I have moved in a new direction with my work in the past two years and it’s really great to get recognition that I’m on the right track.
