Ian is an award-winning photographer and member of the NSW branch of the Australian Institute of Professional Photographers (AIPP). 

At the age of 10, after marvelling at a neighbour bringing black and white images to life in his laundry darkroom, Ian was hooked on photography for life! 

Surrendering to Ian’s constant pestering, his parents bought him a Kodak Box Brownie, the most basic of medium format film cameras. So began his photographic journey.

Realising his passions were also for drawing and painting, Ian started experimenting with oils from the age of 13. After graduating school, he ventured into a jewellery design and manufacturing apprenticeship at Angus & Coote, one of Australia’s leading retail jewellery chains. He achieved his Trade Diploma, then formed a jewellery manufacturing partnership with, which successfully designed and made bespoke pieces, which they supplied to the finest jewellery stores throughout Australia for over 15 years.

After selling his jewellery business, Ian rekindled his passion for photography, travelling throughout Europe, Scandinavia, South Africa, India and Kashmir, capturing images at every opportunity.

His portraits of royal family members, prime ministers and CEOs are well regarded. Ian’s portrait of his good friend, the late Paul Ramsay, adorns the foyer of every Ramsay Health Care Hospital in Australia, and the cover of his recent biography ‘Paul Ramsay – A Man For Others’.

Ian’s aim is to capture lasting memories of those precious milestone family and corporate events for his clients, who will own all original print size files and all copyright for future use.
