Trinity Beach is a quiet coastal village about 15 minutes drive north of Cairns city, and is where Sea Change Beachfront Apartments is located.

Pelicans
Last week I was kept busy with early learning shoots for Pelicans Childcare. With the images, I’ve tried to maintain a style that very much reflects the focus on discovery, learning and friendship which is the hallmark for Pelicans. In photography terms, it was all about keeping it as unobtrusive as possible and capturing those …
The Peak House
I recently had the privilege of photographing a beautiful residential home designed by Julianne McAlloon Architects. Sitting atop a hillside overlooking Cairns, the striking facade features cascading, irregular concrete steps through a landscaped garden.

It was very much a small community smashed up beyond recognition. Three …
Pensar Construction
This was something a little bit different: an opportunity to photograph a series of slope stabilization projects by Pensar Construction along the Kuranda Range road and Captain Cook Highway. While we all know the feeling of being held up by roadworks, we rarely understand what work is actually going on… in this case, projects that …
Jubilee Heights
I was recently down in Innisfail for the architectural photography of a new house for MiHaven, designers and builders of steel framed houses that can be built in relatively quick timeframes (8-12 weeks). This house, located in Jubilee Heights on the outskirts of Innisfail, has a fairly straightforward layout internally, with a rear deck that …
