I am lucky enough to be good friends with the superheroes behind Sorry Thanks I Love You, the beautiful concept store built around the reasons why people choose to give. They encourage people to Give Different, with high quality, ethically sourced artisan products and boutique designers whose attention to detail verges on obsessive. With designers including Issey Miyake, Hender Scheme, Mykita and Dinosaur Designs, as well as a range of products from local makers… In short, it is gorgeous stuff.
Read MoreSydney Mardi Gras - 2017
This is the fourth year Gareth and I have spent the day wandering around the outskirts of the Sydney Mardi Gras taking photos. It's always a fantastic day, such a good vibe, everyone is happy and it is one of the rare moments in Sydney when it feels completely acceptable to start a conversation with a stranger.

Read MoreNice Cannes
Way back in June 2011 I travelled to the South of France for the Cannes Lions festival. I saw some amazing speakers including Malcolm Gladwell, Eric Schmidt and Patti Smith. I also had many many drinks at some amazing parties with some amazing people. In between all that, I took some photos with my Canon AE-1 loaded with some trusty rolls of Tri-X.
Singapore Stopover
In the beginning of 2015 I was lucky enough to travel to Singapore with Ogilvy (for my day job as a Strategic Planner). Whilst I was very busy all week, I did manage to sneak out to take some photos before flying home on my last day.
