Sarah Andersons Capture Tree Project. A fruitful harvest of peers from the ACMP
5 May 2013
Sarah Anderson who has been working with Trampoline Melbourne for the last few years shares about what she gets out of being part of the project.
In 2009, after many years of assisting and a two and a half year stint in Canada I decided it was time to break up with my assisting career and start my photography business.

I was lucky that I had experienced photographers to call on for advice and support and give me cheap rent at a studio to get me started.

Photographing in Public
7 April 2013 - ACMP
It has been 4 years since my last exhibition, so I recently started thinking about the next one! I shoot mostly people for my commercial work, but generally exhibit industrial images for my fine art. Nice & easy - old factories do not answer back, or demand to know "why are you taking my photo, mate?!?" So... I have some images I have been shooting for the last couple of years - crowds of peopl

Adding to these traumas, as a toddler he was rushed to receive an antidote to a poisonous spider bite.
