Just a couple of months after completing my first year at photography school I had two photography stories published in Marie Claire Australia, a total of thirteen pages. Just two years later I signed a publishing contract for my first book Italian Joy, a monography of my life in Italy published by Penguin Australia.
Thirteen years have passed since my first photographic story was published and I have since had my photography (fashion, interiors and travel) published in hundreds of magazines, journals and newspapers worldwide including Australia, United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, Greece, South America and published 6 books with my photography and have my 7th on its way!
How did I do it? I have been asked this questions hundreds of times.
During the past 13 years I have had the chance to work closely at all levels of image making with the magazine and publishing industry including art directors, publishers, journalists and editors and in this ONE DAY WORKSHOP I plan to share with you what I have learnt.
