When the digital revolution arrived in the early 90's Peter was the first Australian
photographer to offer stock images on CD, and one of the first to have a
stock photography website.
Over the years he has photographed several coffee table books. These
include “Tasmania”,“ Red Centre”, “Landscape Australia”, now in its second
printing, and the recently reprinted Reader's Digest book “Australia's
Most Scenic Drives”. To photograph it Peter and his wife Margaret drove
almost 100,000 kilometres around Australia.
His love affair with photography rem ains as strong as ever. As well
marketing his stock image library www.australianscenics.com he continues
to photograph around Australia and has plans for more overseas
assignments. |

Starting out in a commercial E6 photographic lab and then moving on as an assistant to a
commercial photographer, Michael learnt the trade by working in such areas as product,
architectural, corporate and public relations photography.
Moving out as a freelance photographer, where a passion for wildlife and nature
developed into a decade of natural history work for the NZ Geographic Magazine
focusing on close-up and technically challenging projects.
With a desire to incorporate studio quality lighting, and to put the viewer eye-to-eye
with the subject in its natural environm ent; Michael developed specialist one-off flash
lighting systems for macro and close up photography which gave performance and
flexibility not available with any commercial systems.
Now fully digital and mainly doing commercial work, the DIY spirit is far from dead.
Challenges from commercial and personal projects, now keep his creative spirit alive. |
