1966 Plymouth Barracuda
Started doing some work for Australasian Classic Car Magazine. One of my favourites was this cool Plymouth Barracuda. Still all original V8 and daily driven. (update 2019 recently I noticed it was bought by Deus Ex Machina and given a bit of a makeover. Nice […]

Paul Castagna Chopped EK Holden
In January I was in Canberra working for Street Machine Magazine during Summernats. Now while you may be thinking ‘lucky bastard’, it was mainly super long days inside at Channel 9 studios moving lights around for Uber-photographer Helmut Muller. He was charged with photographing all […]

Nat’s Subaru WRX
My first shoot for Fast Fours Magazine! Shot at East Perth and also up at Barbagallo Raceway. And through the Graham Farmer Freeway Tunnel.

Australia’s Oldest Split Window VW Beetle?
Could this example be the oldest in the country? It’s a 1949 split beetle from the Volkswagen Spectacular show in 2004. Perhaps someone could review the images and chime in?

Jeff Bakers Volksrod
Jeff’s Volksrod just did my head in. It was the first time I’d really paid attention and the bloke built a Frankenstein. The details made me laugh and lose sleep and I wished I owned it.

Jeff Baker’s 1956 Oval Beetle
I was so stoked to be asked to come to Valla Beach in NSW and shoot a weekend of Volkswagens at the bi-annual Volkswagen Spectacular. Jeff Baker and Peter Klaak brought two bugs up from Sydney. This is the first…

Some promotional images for Marks Workshop for Perth Street Car Magazine

Robin Julius Toyota Celica
One of my first studio attempts and I had no idea what I was doing. Perhaps I’ll do a blog post on tips for the upcoming automotive studio photographer soon?

Dave Williams Candy EK Holden
I believe this was my first photoshoot for Street Machine Magazine? The Perth brothers stunning EK Holden with its supercharged six cylinder engine deserves the many awards it has already won. Every nut and bolt has been chromed or painted and the interior in white […]

Jordan Leist and Clayton Leist Mazda RX3
Shooting with film again while really wanting to rob a bank for that lovely Nikon D1 I previously borrowed. Film scanned using a potato again.

Ford Falcon GT
My first practice with one of these new-fangled digital cameras for the Drivepix website. Went out to Northam in the WA Wheatbelt. So impressed with this new technology for taking photos. Amazing that traditional film was being replaced by computer chips. The Nikon D1 was […]

Mick Williamson Holden Premier EH
Another photoshoot from Northam testing the Nikon D1 first generation digital SLR.

Christian Calvert VW Karmann Ghia
I remember shooting this on Kodachrome 64 and totally stuffing it up. The Ghia was yellow but the slides were shaded all over the place as I didn’t pay enough attention to my metering. Check out the pics scanned below HAHAHA – Soooo many mistakes. […]

Vince Mosachino Fiat 124
I’ve got a recollection this was shot for a new online magazine? We shot it at Hillary’s Boat Harbour. I really can’t remember but again it was on film and scanned badly by me. I really had no idea what I was doing but that […]

Brian Parkes Turbo Datsun Morris Ute
Some extra practice shooting Brian Parkes Morrie ute. Brian was our mechanic as we owned a 1956 Morris sedan at the time. Shot on film and scanned with a potato.

Drew and Chris Tarrant’s Mazda RX2 and RX3
Photographed near Grafton, NSW with Kodak 400 transparency using a Nikon FM2 (and badly scanned years ago by me)

Andrew Davey Holden Gemini
Photoshoot and article for Gemini Fever Magazine in 1998. This is my Cousin Andrews stunning example.

Steve Hoad’s Mini
Another article of Grafton local Steven Hoade and his super cool Mini.

Ron Williams Minis
My first official photoshoot, first magazine, first cover. Shot in Tenterfield, NSW, myself and Jon Smith (journalist) took a drive a few hours North of Grafton to meet up with Ron and check out his collection. Twenty years later it appears Ron is still building […]
