The second story I worked on was about the surf industry in the Victorian coastal town of Torquay.

It’s always great when shooting with a relatively open brief like I’ve done for Swinburne University. This year I’ve been commissioned to shoot candid daily life photos around two of their Melbourne campuses. Below are some examples of how pictures have been used for the covers of their course handbooks.

Earlier this year, I was invited to be one of the photographic contributors to the Thames & Hudson published book ‘Characters: Cultural stories revealed through typography’ by Stephen Banham of Letterbox. The book presents extraordinary stories behind the signs seen around a city, in this case Melbourne. Having lived in Melbourne my whole life and being a collector of old signs, this was a dream job for me. I was lucky enough to shoot at some locations that are normally off limits to both photographers and the general public. These included inside the towers of the Manchester Unity and T&G buildings, and the derelict toilet block from the former Safari Park in Rockbank. The book is released nationally in early September. Below are my spreads from the book and a 2 minute youtube clip of me at work at a few of the locations. Follow the book on Facebook HERE
