Photography started for me at fifteen, when my uncle gave me his old darkroom equipment. At the age of twenty, I began my professional career as an on-the-run photojournalist, covering local events for newspapers. Later I worked as an assistant on commercial photo shoots.

In 2007 I had the honour of becoming one of 12 participants in World Press Photo’s annual Joop Swart Masterclass.
My photos have appeared in (corporate) magazines and trade journals, adverts and government publications, nationally and internationally.
