Brisbane photographer reveals a creative life shaped by stillness, simplicity, and a deep appreciation for quiet moments. Dallas reflects on how his earliest experiences — photographing flowers, family, and road trips with a small Kodak camera — planted a spark that resurfaced years later when he picked up a mirrorless camera and began teaching himself the craft.
Dallas describes himself as naturally introverted, and photography has become his way of expressing something personal without noise or pressure. He shares how he gravitates toward calm, contemplative scenes, favouring black and white images for their ability to strip away distraction and bring light, texture, and emotion to the forefront. Long-exposure work plays a key role in his style, allowing him to slow time, soften movement, and create images that feel reflective and slightly surreal.
Whether crafting fine art pieces, portraits, or commercial projects, Dallas approaches each frame with the same quiet intentionality — clean compositions, space to breathe, and mood shaped by natural light. Beyond photography, he talks about his love of cycling, exploring new places at a slower pace, and the way these experiences feed into his creative mindset.
Through his thoughtful process and grounded perspective, Dallas reminds us that photography is as much about paying attention as it is about making images — an invitation to pause and notice the quiet beauty in everyday scenes.
I hope you enjoy the show!
