Behind the scenes capturing something far bigger than just another corporate event.
At the stunning Crown Sydney, I had the privilege of documenting Paula and the incredible work of St Merkarious Charity as they partnered alongside leaders in the AI space, including Alfred AI and Palantir Consulting, during the prestigious Radius 2026 event.
What I love about moments like this is seeing innovation, leadership, and influence used to create real opportunities for real communities. đ¤
My role wasnât simply to capture photos and videos.
It was to help tell the story of impact, partnership, and the people working faithfully behind the scenes to make a difference.

I found myself on YouTube đąand it felt like looking into a mirror I wasnât ready for.
This conversation with Nathan Chanski isnât a highlight reel.
Itâs the tension behind the scenes.
The long nights.
The wrestle between faith and fear.
The quiet question: âAm I actually trusting God⌠or just saying I do?â
Yes, we talk about building a business thatâs done ~$300k.
But this isnât about numbers.
Because numbers donât tell you about the sacrifice.
Or the moments where obedience costs more than comfort.
I donât claim Iâve made it.
If anything, this is just a checkpoint⌠not the destination.
What Iâm learning:
This business isnât mine to own.
Itâs mine to steward.
This is the Lordâs business⌠I just get to carry it for a season.
Every booking.
Every opportunity.
Every dollar.
All of it â entrusted.
All of it â for His glory.
Grateful for Nathan, not just a brilliant business coach but one that sees live through the lens of Christian faith and the business blueprint heâs poured into me.
Not just for growth⌠but for alignment.
And for those who ask what it means to specialise in Christian weddingsâŚ
Itâs not a niche.
Itâs a conviction.
It means honouring the covenant, not just capturing the event.
It means creating space for prayer, not just poses.
It means understanding boundaries, not just directing moments.
It means pointing beyond the couple⌠to Christ.
This isnât just storytelling.
Itâs stewardship of something sacred.
If youâre building something right now and it feels heavyâŚ
youâre not alone in that tension.

When I was led to the baggage carousel and fully expected a Toy Story moment â
Belts criss-crossing like highways in the sky â bags splitting off, merging back in,
all finding their way to the right aircraft at exactly the right time.
Turns out⌠itâs just lanes. Very efficient lanes. đ
Spending two full days capturing Menzies Aviation, I saw what really keeps these âhighwaysâ moving â strong team culture, shared responsibility, and a real sense of brotherhood across departments.
My role was to showcase that unity: different teams, one mission â serving airline partners and keeping planes moving safely and on schedule.

What does feeding the homeless look like when the camera has to look away? đ
Behind the scenes at St Merkorious Charity this Australia Day, where the mission was bigger than the footage. Some moments welcomed the lens. Others needed privacy, dignity, and space. The challenge was holding both at once while still telling the story truthfully.
Meals shared. Haircuts given. Clothes passed hand to hand. Conversations that mattered more than coverage. Care in motion, often in the quietest corners.
Grateful to witness a kind of generosity that does not perform, yet transforms lives every single time.
@stmerkorious welcomes sponsors and volunteers as thereâs plenty of needs on the street.

Come and capture our church service with me đđĽ
We had our senior pastor Mark and the worship team from Kingdomcity Perth join us for Revival Night â what a powerful atmosphere! đĽ
It was so good seeing Ps Mark again. The last time he was here, he announced Ps Blake & Lizzieâs move to plant Kingdomcity USA⌠and honestly, this time we were very thankful there were no announcements about Ps Matiu & Kady moving on đ â¤ď¸ Weâve grown so fond of them. đ
Such an amazing night of worship and a word in season from Ps Mark.
If youâre looking for a local church to call home in Sydney, weâd love to have you.
We run services 10am & 5pm at Parkroyal Parramatta.
Come and be part of what God is doing đâ¨
