My name is David Perry, and I'm a freelance photographer based on the Gold Coast of Queensland. My passion lies in landscape and travel photography, where I capture the natural beauty that surrounds us.

While landscape photography fuels my creativity, a significant part of my focus is event photography, particularly within educational settings. I have extensive experience photographing a wide range of school activities—from Pre Prep activity days to School Musicals, Concerts, Carnivals, and Senior Formals.

In addition to ground-level photography, I also enjoy aerial photography using drones. To ensure compliance with regulations and safety standards, I hold a Remote Pilot Licence (RePL) recognized by CASA (Civil Aviation Safety Authority) in Australia.

Having spent my career in education, I find joy in sharing my photography knowledge and post-processing skills with students. Photography allows me to immerse myself in the moment—whether capturing the brilliance of a sunrise or the innocence in a child's smile. Each moment is unique, and through post-processing techniques in software like Photoshop, Adobe Camera Raw, and Lightroom, I refine and develop these scenes, akin to the craftsmanship once practiced in darkrooms.

Photography is not just a profession but a creative journey. If you're interested in joining me on this journey or have any inquiries, please feel free to reach out. I look forward to connecting with fellow enthusiasts and creating memorable images together.
