John grew up in Brisbane and has been photographing on and off since he was a child. In 2005, John decided to take his photography more seriously. For a number of years, he pursued straight photography until he was introduced to more expressive photography. At the time he was introduced to this style of photography, he found that a passion had been lit which had previously been missing. Since then he has been honing his photographic voice.
More recently, John has found that he is an autistic person. On this discovery, he has worked out why his style of expressive style of photography makes sense to him. It is a reflection of who he is.
John now calls his style of artwork as divergent photography as he believes that his artwork reflects his autism. Due to this, all his artwork is now printed on Chromaluxe metal as he believes that this material truly reflects himself as an artist.
