Now working primarily in editorial and commercial portraiture, he has an expanding client list and a number of accolades to his name. His images have been published internationally and appeared in titles such as NME, The Monthly and The Australian. He has been recognised as one of the top young photographers in the country by Art and Australia magazine and the SOYA awards and he was also a finalist in the 2011 National Photographic Portrait Prize and the Head On Portrait Prize.
