So delighted to be included in "Inside the Curve" by National Geographic, curated by Claudi Carreras, a remarkable book out now charting stories of darkness and light during the pandemic. It's something rather rare for a single book to portray a topic that literally everyone on the planet can relate to. This work will hopefully prove a lasting and valuable document of a period none of us will forget.

Vale! A fond farewell in the Sydney Morning Herald here.

Delighted to be exhibiting as part of the Head On Photo Festival's '2020 Vision' touring show, in which photographers were asked to portray how their local communities confronted the challenges of 2020. The exhibition will tour NSW regionally before culminating at the 2021 Head On Festival in Sydney.

Massive thanks to the National Geographic Society for awarding me a generous grant under its COVID-19 Emergency Fund to produce a project depicting aspects of the COVID-era in Sydney. The fund has been created for selected visual storytellers and writers to memorialise this unique moment in history as experienced within their local communities. Hugely excited and honoured to be able to participate in this.

Thank you very much Andrea Bruce, David Campany and Masoud Gharaei for selecting 'Against the Tide' as a finalist in the Street Photographers Foundation Award. Looking forward to the exhibitions in Italy and Tehran along with the book to be published by Street Photographers Foundation later this year.
