TedX Sydney It was an honour to be part of the team of photography who captured images of the TedX Sydney event at Sydney Convention Centre in 2018. Posting live from backstage, we had a huge team of shooter, runners and computer gurus ensuring that everything ran smoothly. I have been a fan of TED Talk for many years, finding great inspiration and information from amazing speakers around the world. Being there amongst the speakers and organisers was an energising experience. TEDxSydney is the leading platform for the propagation of Australian ideas, creativity and innovation to the rest of the world. TED is a nonprofit devoted to spreading ideas, usually in the form of short, powerful talks (18 minutes or less) and covers almost all topics from science to business to global issues. Here are some of my event photographs from TedX Sydney. Magda Szubanski Magda silenced the TedX audience with her heart wrenching stories about her family’s past, her childhood and her public “coming out”. She is an incredible speaker and entertainer. It was a privilege to witness this fragile side to Magda as I grew up seeing her on TV as a confident and […] Read More
I was asked to do photography of a Kempsey Riversideside Markets special event, the Kempsey Twilight Markets. I’ve always loved markets so covering the event photography for this special Christmas market was a lot of fun. Riversider Park was packed with stalls, showcasing many locally made arts, crafts and food. There was an abundance of local produce with fresh fruit and veggies and gorgeous flowers. The entertainment was mainly singer songwriters from the local area and I enjoyed discovering some of our local artists from around the Mid North Coast. If you are looking for an Event Photographer for your upcoming event in Kempsey, Crescent Head, South West Rocks, Port Macquarie or elsewhere on the Mid North Coast, please get in touch to discuss how I can help.

Tastings on Hastings Photography by Port Macquarie Photographer Alicia Fox Tastings on Hastings is one of the highlights on the Port Macquarie calendar. This year I was thrilled to be invited to Near River Produce‘s farm west of Wauchope to photograph their renowned Meals in the Fields. This pop up dining experience presented guests with a genuine paddock to plate experience thanks to Mid North Coast chefs Carla Jones, former head chef at 4 Fourteen, and her partner, Richie Dolan, former head chef from Chiswick. Near River specialises in ethically raising a rare breed heritage pork on pasture and growing seasonal vegetables. Read More
Last week I was in Port Macquarie to photograph the launch of Energy Forever’s first 100 percent community funded and owned solar panel system at St Agnes Early Education Centre. This not-for-profit organisation has spent years rallying in the local Mid North Coast community to raise funds for this incredible project. It’s wonderful to finally see the results of their hard work. The 72 panels are split over 4 roof faces to best cover the load at the centre. The DC from the panels is converted to AC grid power. I fully support what Port Macquarie Hastings Sustainability Network and Energy Forever are doing for the community and the environment which is why I photographed the event for them on a pro-bono basis. If you have skills that you’d like to share with the organisation, get in touch via their Facebook page. To see more of my work with not for profit organisations please visit my website Read More
