Beginning his day on a 6:15am train. Home by 11pm that evening. Ballarat to South Yarra. South Yarra to Prahran. Three trains in total, one way. Then back again. Six days a week. Damn! The formative years for Jimmy Morrison’s barbering apprenticeship consisted of up to 30 hours in weekly commuting, many hard knocks and a helluva lot of determination.
Fast forward a decade later and Jimmy has cemented himself as one of Australia’s most well-respected barbers, an anchor to the Victorian community of Ballarat and the proud owner of ‘Jimmy’s Barbershop’ – located inside an ornate, heritage-listed building situated in the heart of Ballarat’s main street. A true testament to sticking it out for the long haul. Hard work paying off. The Uppercut way!
Both a family man, powerhouse and yet also a gentleman who’s highly skilled in his craft; we’re proud to be able to finally introduce the world to @jimmyrmorrison .
Welcome to Uppercut Deluxe, mate. It’s a pleasure to have you on board!

Ever wake up and just go ‘damn, I wish my hair would sit like this all time?’ Yeah, me either. That’s why I’m cutting this mop off. But I’m glad someone documented it. And that someone is @julianlallo . He didn’t actually get me out of bed before sunrise to shoot the hair, but he did want to shoot the truck. I said yes, now we have proof I was the poor man’s The Iron Claw actor once upon a time.
"Out in the field, shooting on location, the last thing I want to be doing is running back to base to restock equipment. The Venture Sling - Camera Edition has become the latest staple in my arsenal, so extra batteries, filters and lenses are never too far away. It's big enough to load up with the items I'd usually have an assistant carry, but small enough to not get in the way of shooting and allow the camera around my neck to still be the main thing."

Meet our first camera bag, the Venture Sling 10L – Camera Edition. It has a streamlined shape that hugs your body. Popout internal dividers that silently adjust to your gear. And a strap and zipper that both work one-handed, letting you swap lenses without fumbling. So if you can't get the shot, don't even try to blame the equipment. 😉
