About Me

This is the official caspix blog. I shoot digital and film. I heart square crop. I love holga. All photography is my passion.

I have had a camera in hand for years. I have worn my heart on my sleeve since I was born. I have worked in creative fields for years. I have shot live music, chefs in the kitchen, pregnancy at dawn and Australian fashion week. I have shot 16hr weddings, witnessed broken wrists at Roller Derby, been sprayed with sweat at Muay Thai fights and documented a birth. And I loved every minute of it. Why? Because it is all part of life, and that’s what I capture. Life and the in-between. I capture it as creatively as I can. I shoot with a documentary/editorial eye and love shooting warmth and emotion. Life is emotional.

I don't make people do cheesy duck lip kisses, awkward Charlie's Angel poses or pretend album covers. And absolutely no jumping wedding parties. Just natural, fabulous and real.

I am available for commissions Australian wide and beyond and do not offer pre-packaged ad nauseum. Cross my heart.

Wedding commissions start at $3,000
Portrait and editorial commissions start at $500
Commercial commissions POA
