Greg has had a lifelong obsession with wildlife and in particular birds. Growing up in Adelaide, South Australia, he spent countless hours of his childhood in the bush watching and studying these unique creatures. Combining this love of nature with a strong interest in art and photography, he began painting birds from a young age. After moving to Victoria, he studied Art, Design and Photography at Monash University and has worked as a Graphic Designer since. He is currently a Creative Director in a leading design firm. Although “dabbling” in bird photography from a young age, he spent many years just birding - focusing mainly on chasing the next new species. After years of owning traditional film SLR’s, his first digital camera in 2001 was a Fuji Finepix DSLR combined with a Nikon 400mm. He has had Nikon gear ever since, becoming “serious” about bird photography around 3 years ago. His work has been published in several books, magazines and websites and he is currently building a large catalogue of images of Australian avifauna.
