Helen Goninon | Van Wonderland

Helen lives just past the TinPot Café in Melbourne, I did managed to get lost finding her place, but I always get lost in that little cluster of streets. Once I found Helen’s place I got to have a close look at her bird creations. They are all hand made and mostly produced on the [...]

Ghostpatrol | Van Wonderland

I ventured over to Melbourne to photograph Ghostpatrol. It’s not the first time, but it was the first time I had visited Mitten Fortress Studio studio. Another eclectic collection of bits and pieces everywhere, it is a fantastic space to get inspired. We even climbed out the window and took some photos a few floors [...]

Megan Perkins | Van Wonderland

I seem to be going through Huonville a bit more than usual the last year or so. Wedding, just out driving and now looking for Megan Perkins’s studio. It’s situated at her parent’s phenomenal place, I know I’ve written it before in blog posts, but I really could have spent many house photographing details in [...]

Tara Badcock | Van Wonderland

A couple of years ago, Tara dropped by the office to see if I could take some photos of her tea cosies. Artistic tea cosies on people heads. From then on I have photographed a heap of her artworks, and I am always impressed with what she puts in front of my lens. The day [...]

Anita is one of those people that I have kind of known for a while. I kind of met her through various people and heard rumours of jewellery creations. I head talk of tea pot rings and tea tiaras made of exquisite metals. I finally saw some of these creations and was amazed at the [...]

Weekend Wandering

After a frantic couple of days in Hobart, Vee and I took the long way home, travelling some back roads to see what we could find. Our first discovery was actually suggested to us by friends in Hobart, Puddleduck Vineyard. It’s in the Coal Valley just before Richmond and is a very cute little cellar [...]

Matt and Megan Preview | Engagement Portrait Launceston

And Jasper came along too, he has the fur on his feet. Matt has fur on his feet too but hides it with shoes. OK, i’m not sure if Matt has fur on his feet, but as he is my dad’s godson, i can pick on him if i want, i think that’s in the [...]

Friday Urban Adventure

A hidden little street/driveway near the hospital

Hideyo | Van Wonderland

I first met Sam and Maya at a market in Launceston and, like everyone who sees their things, was mesmerised by their paper folding abilities. The other thing that gets you is the paper. It’s no ordinary paper. Pages of old books are carefully selelcted for paper thickness and storyline to make their creating even [...]
