Gold Coast

Life Story

I grew up on a mixed farm in a small country town called Walla Walla in N.S.W. My parents thought it vital that my 4 brothers and I attend a private college to enhance our education and that we also learn a musical instrument to aid our social development. I chose piano, and studied fervently for 6 years … and have barely played since. On the farm we had chickens, cows, cats, dogs and at my constant insistence, my Dad finally relented and bought me a horse. When my natural abilities shone bright I began to break them in and even retrain ex-racehorses. As an adult I’ve kept many different animals on my own properties over the years, having lived in Albury N.S.W., South Melbourne and Cockatoo in Victoria, Mount Best and Foster in South Gippsland before moving out of the state entirely.

I currently live on The Gold Coast Of Australia

HOW I GOT STARTED – I’ve been creating, editing, compiling and constructing websites since 2007 when one of my adult sons came back home to live for a year. I’d just been given my very first computer and he started by helping me learn how to use it. My son was building his own gaming website at the time so I asked him to teach me what he was doing … and day and night we sat side by side just playing with web building and enhancing pictures with photoshop.

At the beginning I used FrontPage, which is now Expression Web and quickly progressed to the ease, functionality, and flexibility of WordPress and WooCommerce.

AS A TEACHER – I’ve assisted many small business owners getting started with “Build Your Own Website Classes” and I’ve donated my services freely to help others improve their internet presence; providing website appraisals, starting facebook business pages and setting up local clubs with a striking portfolio site.

THESE DAYS – I build a lot of websites for myself and monetise them with google ads. I’m selective about the clients I do take and work mainly with businesses and entrepreneurs, celebrities, actors, models, artists, singers that turn over more than $1 million annually, and those who are really positive and passionate about life. My son proudly tells me that I’m much better than him now and it’s common for me to still be up when the sun rises, creating, improving, designing, thriving. I absolutely adore my work.

HOW I GOT STARTED – After being gifted a fabulous SLR camera in my late teens and playing around with it until it broke during a trip to the United States, I gave my hobby away for many years until I renewed my interest in photography again in April 2008 by buying a nice little point and shoot camera (a Canon S5 IS). Despite NOT having highly professional equipment and only limited experience, my results were good enough to get attention in various places. Back then, my work was seen on advertising brochures, newspapers, other websites, real estate billboards and even local television.

NEW PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY EQUIPMENT – My pictures received so much attention that in May 2009 I purchased one of the best cameras on the market, the new Canon 5D II along with some of the very best luxury lenses that Canon makes. The level of Commercial Photography work I was asked to do grew rapidly, thanks to all my supportive clients, people finding me through random internet searches and a very strong Facebook presence.

I’ve always been able to adapt quickly into any field I choose to master, but I only ever do the work that I really love to do. That means, when I focus on a task, I give it my heart and soul. ~ ER
