ALL THE AMERICAN DREAMS BEFORE THE PANDEMIC #SHESHOOTSFILM | 2019 | SWINBURNE UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY

It’s obvious to everyone who meets me that I love to travel. The idea of travelling—packing my bags, and disappearing to someplace new—lives inside the brain all the time. I’m an observant traveller who always brings a camera with me, digital or analogue. The photos I capture through my analogue camera are full of surprises, which is one of the most exciting parts of travelling. Back in 2019, right before the pandemic, I had the greatest blessing to travel around the West Coast for three weeks. This is a series of few shots that I took from my perspective with my pocket analogue camera. I tend to make the bold statement that ‘film is on its way back into our modern lives’ for one reason. Slow, intentional, mindful practices are becoming more and more adopted into our daily lives. Analogue helps me live slow. It gives me the extra minute in the hustle and bustle of adventure to breathe, acknowledge the beauty, and relish in the intentional steps of documentation. It’s a beautiful thing.

PHOTOGRAPHY | 2018–21 | SWINBURNE UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY

A few selected works with a focus on portraiture using natural lighting. The majority of the images are focused on fashion from a variety of different briefs. However, all focus is on bringing allure to the audience. I wanted the models to convey a story that draws the audience in with their eyes, telling a story of their own.

TRANSLUCENT PHOTOGRAPHY | 2021 | SWINBURNE UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY

This project was made for Photography and Art Direction in semester one, 2021. The translucent bottle/brand I selected for this project was Campari. My intention with the brand portrayal was to keep the style and feel of the vintage posters that Campari is known for, except convey the style photographically. This led me to select the bright green colours to contrast with the deep red of the bottle. The social media image is contrasting with the poster and billboard by conveying an image of class and wealth. Meeting the audience on social media with a distinguished image that portrays who they could be if they drank Campari.
