Hi Frothers !

I can thank my father’s interest in photography for my 30plus year passion, even though I only turned into my professional career 4 years ago.

Originally from Bondi and now living on the Far North NSW Coast, in what I consider my little piece of paradise I find myself spoilt with a selection of beaches which allows me to pursue the shorebreakers for that illusive perfect wave.I love to capture the individual personalities of the micro wave, the smaller the better!

So after many hours in the water in pursuit of that perfect shot you can imagine my delight to receive news from Surfing Australia that I have made the finals for the Nikon Surf Photo Awards putting me into a line up of Australia’s Top Surf photographers. The last two years I have made the finals, being the only female to do so which makes it all the more special. Actually this is one of those Awards that humbles me, whether it be that I have made an imprint in a fairly male dominated industry or that my images are up against Australia’s best Surf photographers, it leaves me feeling very humbled and proud.

So on the 12th of Feb at Surfing Australia’s presentation night held in Sydney the winner will be announced, for me I feel I have already won with just making the grade!

Wish me luck!

Oh, I almost forgot: wanna win a double-pass for the ”Spirit of Akasha” at the Bondi Open Air Cinema on 11th February ? Be the first to answer this simple question by replying to this email: who, of all the Frothers photographers, has got the largest number of Instagram followers ?

…and since you’re there looking for the answer, give them all a follow…:)
