Born and raised in Sydney, Addrian is our head photographer, videographer, and cinematographer.

Be assured that he brings his A-game on set and be wary because of his game face. It’s a big smile waiting to capture your special moments. He considers himself to be a bit of a comedian, with one main purpose …to make everyone around him smile, but do not fret because he’s always got his camera on him to make sure he captures the moment!

So scroll down and get to know him in a not so ‘usual’ about page, where we press on questions that you should always ask your photographer/videographer.

Get to know me a little better with some questions!

1. What is your biggest motivation to take pictures/videos?

I truly do believe that inherently we are all storytellers, and I guess that’s my biggest motivation. To be able to tell a story and to inspire even a hand full of people. Just being able to have them look at a picture and take a moment to themselves is what makes me pick my camera up every day.

2. If your pictures could tell a story what would it be and how does that translate into your pictures?

I think my personal aesthetics play a major role in the pictures that I take, I’ve developed a particular style over the years which comes to each photographer with time and experience, for e.g when I want to capture a landscape I want to do so in its true essence and grandeur, I angle and frame it accordingly.

I do focus on the contrast and texture of the picture, I think it personally delivers pictures that you could immerse yourself into.

3. Which photographer do you draw your inspiration from for your photos/videos/career path?

It has to be Peter Mckinnon for me right now. he’s a brilliant modern-day photographer. He inspires me to be out in nature and just use my camera and capture nice bright pictures. He has a diversified portfolio and really well and just branched out with his career

4. What motivates you to continue taking pictures?

So let’s rewind…I’m a 14-year old kid and am absolutely in love with Stop Motion Animation and I would just take my phone out and just take pictures of these LEGO characters and I just fell in love with the process, and that’s where my passion really began. I think I get my creative side from my mum, she would have these albums just full of pictures of me and my siblings capturing all our special moments. When I look back, I have all these memories to look back on, and to think I could do that for someone else is truly a blessing… Photography is part of me and I just don’t see myself doing anything else I absolutely love it and that’s why I continue doing what I love the most and believe I’ll never stop.
