Back in school whenever we had to read in the library I always got told off because I would be reading the one Manual Mag that was in there and not a story book.

It got to the point where I had to hide it in front of the biggest book I could find so it looked like I was reading something different. I studied that book and examined every photo inside of it just wishing one day I could get one of my photos published in it.

At the start of this year Stephen hit me up and said he was getting a story in the upcoming Manual Mag and asked if I could take some photos of him after seeing a few of my shots on Instagram. Not gonna lie I tried to play it cool but inside I was frothing because I had a chance to hopefully get one of my photos in a Magazine I grew up reading.

Now the latest issue is released and I get to see my photos across 3 pages. To some people this isn’t much but to be honest it’s a low key bucket list moment for me and it’s only made me more motivated to do more! I even feel like a cheesy fan boy writing this but I know my 13 year old self would be proud.

Make sure you go out and get yourself the newest issue.

One of my resolutions this year was to open up more.

I struggle a lot with being proud of myself or being happy with what I’ve done. I put a lot of pressure on myself and I’ve realised a lot of people probably think like this too.

So here’s my way of saying, well done! You’re doing great, I know you’re trying your hardest and you should be proud of where you are! 👏🏽

Walked past the old stomping ground the other day and of course all the memories came flooding back.

This place will always be special to me and everyone involved. It’s a feeling you can’t explain.

Mangawhai Bowl Bash 2026 - This year I wanted to sit back and enjoy it from the stands. I purposely didn’t bring the fisheye so I physically couldn’t go and shoot, however I did end up bringing my Fujifilm because I knew I’d get the itch.

It was also very cool sitting back and watching the kids with their cameras getting amongst it! Reminds me how I was when I first started.

Another great year at @mangawhaibowlbash

All shot on @fujifilmxseriesnz X100VI

2025 was a crazy, hectic, fast paced, wild ride. While it was probably one of the best years of my life, I still need to learn to take a step back and take it all in.
This year, 2026 is for living in the moment 🫡

All taken on a Fujifilm X100VI 🤝
