“I am a self-taught photographer. During my years of practicing photography, I have continued taking landscape photos, sunset photos and it has been a hobby for me. I realised that taking my camera everywhere with me was my passion.

Portrait photography was such an amazing journey for me, as a photographer. I managed to capture some of my elders, in a small community called, Ieramugadu/Roebourne where I’ve lived most of my life. Living in this beautiful town has taught me so much about life struggles, family life and culture.

My life as a photographer has shaped me into the person I’ve become, with the support of my people in this community and I’d like to return that favour and give my elders a voice, to share through my photography.”
