schools and education
Light painting gets students out of their seats, working together and making things they didn’t think were possible.
I work with teachers to understand their learning outcomes and develop a session that supports them. Whether the focus is photography, creative expression, collaboration or problem-solving, we’ll shape the activities around your curriculum, students and goals.
Sessions are welcoming and carefully guided, with a focus on safe participation and room for everyone to ask questions, try ideas and learn through experimentation.
Alongside the practical activities, I share experiences from my life as an artist, photographer and filmmaker, opening up conversations about creative careers, finding your own direction and having the confidence to give things a go.
OLYMPUS - OM SYSTEMS
Since 2016 I have been involved with Olympus (OM Systems) Australia, for many of those years as an official visionary. With the sale of the business their structure changed, but even last year I represented them at a local camera show, and still use the equipment.
Over those years we held dozens of light painting workshops across Australia and New Zealand and connected with Olympus internationally at various events.
As part of a significant camera launch we created a series of tutorials on Easter Island. This was an incredible trip that had marketing legs for the lingest time.
FUJI FILM
Having tested, reviewed several Fuji GFX cameras, they are beast light painting cameras, we recently partnered on a project using Fuji Instax Cameras.
Light painting is always a way to both test any camera, but also blow people away with the capabilities, this project proved that any camera can make amazing images.
PORSCHE MIDDLE EAST
At the Icons of Porsche event in Dubai, I had the opportunity to create something pretty special.
We set up light painting activations where visitors could become part of the experience, creating incredible portraits unlike anything they'd normally get at an event.
After dark, I turned my attention to the cars, using light painting to bring out their extraordinary shapes, curves and details.
These kinds of creative activations bring a whole new dimension to an event. They're interactive, exciting and give people something unique to take away.
It's about creating moments people remember, long after the event is over.
SAUDI MOTORSPORT
Leading into the 2023 formula one race in Jeddah I created a series of marketing images and videos for Saudi Motorsport to promote the event.
Across a week we took a promotional vehicle to key Jeddah locations and created the work. Not only was this an incredible experience, but the week was full of people experinceing light painting for the forst time, which is always a thill for me.
Here is a comprhensive BTS video of the trip.
SALISBURY COUNCIL - Lights at mawson
The lights at Mawson event in 2026 was extreme on so many levels. Th tea,m at teh council had been to a light painting portrait event in the past, and invited me to do the same across three nights at an event.
We set up a room for members of the public to come into, and I created around 850 light painting portraits. Each family received their portraits free of charge 2 days after the event. It was a a logistical nightmare that was carried of to perfection. hundreds of happy families, all wrapped in light.
