Some time ago I staged a shoot at my studio for the talented, intelligent and vibrant Australian fashion luminary, Glynis Traill-Nash. It was a great afternoon of creativity, fun and really, really stunning shoes!
We worked on imagery for Glynis’ performance at the PICF which is happening in June. However, little did I know that Glynis, a renowned fashion writer, is also an accomplished jazz singer (by night).
The show sounds great…incorporating her talents as a singer together with stories, anecdotes, advice and Q&A on the wacky world of fashion. The title is “In These Shoes – Glynis Trail-Nash. See this link:
Last week, I had the incredible opportunity to attend a dress rehearsal at the Hayes Theatre for the upcoming production of Andrew Lloyd Webber and Don Black’s musical, Tell Me On A Sunday. As a lover of theatre and photography, I was thrilled to be able to capture some behind-the-scenes moments of the talented cast and crew in action.
Capturing these moments on camera was a privilege, and I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to document the hard work and dedication of everyone involved in bringing this show to life. I can’t wait to see the finished product on opening night, and I know that audiences are in for a real treat with this stunning production of Tell Me On A Sunday.
If you’re a fan of musical theatre, be sure to grab your tickets to see Tell Me On A Sunday at the Hayes Theatre.
Tell Me On A Sunday commenced performances this weekend taking audiences back to the heady days of late 70s New York City and some of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s most hummable, emotionally engaging, touching and melodic work.
Working with lyricist Don Black, Lloyd Webber’s song cycle tells the story of a young Englishwoman navigating a new life – including work, culture and love – in New York City.
It includes the classic songs Take That Look Off Your Face, Tell Me On A Sunday, Nothing Like You’ve Ever Known, Capped Teeth and Caesar Salad, It’s Not The End of the World, Come Back With the Same Look In Your Eyes and Let’s Talk About You, among many others.
This musical features a knockout performance from Erin Clare as ‘The Girl’ and is directed by Blazey Best, with Musical Supervision by Guy Simpson. This is a unique piece of musical theatre featuring a multi instrumentalist six piece band on stage.

I was commissioned to capture a series of images documenting the activities of some of the team at Xenia Construcitons, working at a new site in the inner Sydney suburb of Darlinghurst.
Xenia are managing a refurbishment on this building which includes upgrades to the roof. I followed the team on their inspection of the “work in progress” and captured images of these men at work.
Mainbrace Constructions, a well known, Melbourne based construction company has recently installed a series of high-tech charging stations for “Team Global Express” at Eastern Creek.
I headed to the facility in Eastern Creek to document the new infrastructure which furnishes a new fleet of battery powered trucks
The lines of vehicles positioned at the power stations were quite impressive as they “re-fuel” for the next days work.
We took drone footage of the site as well. Video footage below.
