ABOUT ME Hey there! My name is Dean, i'm a 22 year old, legitimate blue eyed Australian (that's a selling point right?) Currently i'm based in Brisbane, Queensland and work full time on a freelance basis as a photographer and cinematographer for various local creative companies, agencies and news media organisations. Primarily my work is centred abound the subject matter of music, photojournalism, abstract/experimental media. So without spending hours typing away getting all meta and at the risk of sounding douchy here is a quick sentence about myself and what i like doing: I'm easy going but quite excitable and always up for a challenge and new experiences, I enjoy all things music, food, travel, spending as much time as possible at gigs plus a whole lot of galavanting, adventuring and living that sweet-sweet Hemingway lifestyle. PHILOSOPHY Generally i appreciate when somebody is willing or open to push their comfort zone and experience unique situations although they mightn't be inherently 'safe'. I suppose if a person can display that level of tenacity, independence and enthusiasm they're living a full life. I came across this quote years ago and it best sums up what i've outlined above: "Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up."- Thomas Edison.
