Photography

My passion for photography began in 2020, when I moved to New Zealand and started exploring the country on foot, with a new camera in hand. The trails took me to places like the black sand beaches of Raglan, the volcanic landscape of the Tongariro Alpine Crossing, and and the dramatic scenery of the South Island. Somewhere along the way, the hikes became a way to find the shots, and photography became a thread running through my time here.

Sets

  • A steep grey wall of moraine above pale green water, with snow-streaked peaks under heavy cloud behind it.

    Aoraki National Park

  • A snow-dusted volcanic cone half in cloud, above red and ochre craters and a wide, bare plain of volcanic ground.

    Tongariro Alpine Crossing

  • A long beach and rolling surf seen from a grassy headland, through flax flowers and seed heads, with hills along the coast in the distance.
