Brett offers itinerary advice for a South Island road trip and explores infrared photography. Packed with insights for photographers and adventurers, this episode is a must-watch! Subscribe and join the live chat.   =========================================== Another self-confessed photography addict, Brett has a burning passion for capturing the beauty of landscapes and nature across Australia, New Zealand, and beyond. For Brett, there’s no better feeling than being immersed in nature, camera in hand, enjoying the scenery and the adventure that comes with it. Before becoming a full-time professional photographer, Brett built a successful career in sales and operations within the construction equipment industry. A born and bred country boy from Wagga Wagga, NSW, Australia, he now lives on the NSW South Coast with his partner Lisa and their dog, Twizel. Lisa also plays a key role in the business, working alongside him to guide their landscape photography workshops. Together, they form a formidable team, splitting their time between Australia and New Zealand’s South Island. Having lived and spent over 20 years in New Zealand exploring and photographing it, Brett affectionately refers to it as his “spiritual home.” His deep connection to the land and extensive knowledge make New Zealand workshops his specialty and seeing clients capture stunning images gives him a real sense of fulfilment. His landscape photography workshops continue to grow in popularity, a reflection of his skill, dedication, and genuine passion for guiding and teaching. He doesn’t do this job for the money—he does it because he loves it. For Brett, photography isn’t just a career; it’s a dream come true.
