I have been a photographer for as long as i have been able to hold a
camera, one of my earliest memories is of my father setting up a make
shift studio in the lounge to take photos of me and my sister then
converting the kitchen into a dark room and printing till the early hours
of the morning. This is also something I did in later life and loved.
His lighting was basic but effective, what he did have was a passion for photography the same way I do now. My dad gave me a camera and one lens
for my 13th Birthday, after I showed him my first roll of film, he gave
me another 3 lenses and told me he thought I had a talent. He said, now go prove it to the world.
The last 25 years of my working life has been consumed with the capture of images.
I have a wealth of experience in most types of
photography, having worked in Europe, America, Asia, The South Pacific and
Australia.
I spent a few years travelling the world working as a photographer on
cruise ships, firstly in the Caribbean then in the south pacific.
I have done postcards for the Gold coast and Vanuatu. Having photographed
weddings in Europe, the Caribbean, Jamaica, England and Australia, has been a great experience. I spent 8 years working for Canon Australia supporting professional
photographers, professional photo retailers and news papers, this incresed
my technical knowlege to a level that allowed me to train other
photographers.
Now it is time to use all that knowledge in my new Studio... I have
just opened a Studio and Gallery, called Main Street Studio, 12 Main
Street, Beenleigh. My aim is to be the local contact for all photographic
related business.
Drop in for a coffee and say Hi... thanks, Vince
