All about David

I grew up under the big skies of rural Australia, working with livestock and learning the rhythms of the land. That life gave me a deep connection to nature - one that still drives my work today.

From the cockpit, the country transforms into bold colours, textures and patterns no human hand could design. Aerial photography became my way of sharing this raw beauty with others.

The outback keeps calling. Its vastness fuels my creativity; its moods humble me. Through my camera, I hope to share the peace, colour and power of Australia’s wilderness — art shaped not by me, but by nature itself. 

“Aerial stories of Australia’s timeless wilderness.”
