I came late to photography as a profession but early to it as a hobby - 39 and 8 respectively! Following life-changing heart surgery, I realised that my previous profession was not the real me and I ditched a 20 year career and re-invented myself. Still struggling upwards with that - but love every minute. I guide small group tours for photographers visiting NZ and Australasia, enjoy doing Mr Fixer roles for film and photographic projects from overseas and also grow olives!
