Hello there, Thought I would share few things about me so you know bit about the photographer on a personal level as this is more than just a job, I am here to document your love stories and the important day of your lives with your friends and family!

I am Ash currently living in Sydney, Australia. I have been in Australia for over 13 years now and I lived in Melbourne, Brisbane, Coffs harbour, Newcastle, Armidale and Sydney. I realised Sydney is the place for me in Australia. I have also lived in England, India and been very fortunate to travel to some amazing countries in Europe. So my accent is a bit of a mixture and I can’t really answer the question if someone asks me about my home town or who I support in sports!

I am a practicing Christian that’s far from being perfect. I love God, my family and furry little creatures! I have done Master of theology and Master of teaching in secondary (religion and history). I work as a casual teacher but my goal is to be a full time photographer.

I’m a huge metal head and to me it’s more than just screaming. I am in to progressive, melodic and metalcore! Those lyrics and music brings me energy, motivation and I mostly listen during my workouts. I also listen to Alternative rock, R&B, jazz, Chill tunes with piano and bit of techno!

I want to say few things about what influences my photography. Fashion to me goes hand in hand with photography and I’m falling in love with Parisian or European fashion. It isn’t about the labels or brands but the neutral colours, look and the feel. They are timeless! I appreciate the beauty of good architecture such as Gothic, Baroque, classical and Neo-classical. When I was doing landscapes and street photography, Architecture played a big role. I still love to include symmetry, leading lines and architectural details if I am shooting in a nice location. I love some of the streets in London, Paris, NY and several places in Europe because of the unified colour tones and architecture. I really miss that here! My favourite continent/place is obviously Europe. Italy and Scandinavia are my favourites. I admire architecture, mountains and beautiful landscapes there! Recently I have been loving elopement photographs from Oregon. So I need to plan a visit to USA and Canada soon! I love fantasy genre and I try to implement that cinematic ethereal feel in my images. I am naturally a big fan of LOTR, GOT and Batman 2022. The office (US) is something I have watched several times!

I try to eat healthy and go to gym few days a week but I do procrastinate sometimes and can’t resist the urge of sweet tooth. One thing I am proud of is that I am not addicted to coffee and it doesn’t dictate my day and mood. Being fit is more important to me than ever because I can’t be tired when I’m shooting a 10 hour wedding or take a sick leave when you have booked me an year earlier for your wedding. It is my responsibility. I have to say I have never postponed or cancelled a photoshoot so far due to health reasons and I am quite happy about that. My reviews are on the experience page.

I also value punctuality and I always arrive on time or earlier and I respect the clients who do the same or communicate few hours before regarding their estimated time of arrival. It also sets a positive mood from the start of the photoshoot which is very important.
