To escape the hard reality of growing up in Apartheid South Africa, Oliver dreamed of an enchanting land with lush forests leading up to snow-capped mountains fringed by the vast ocean below - and the freedom to explore. His opportunity came when his family moved to Colorado, USA to start a new life.

With his camera, he toured the Rocky Mountains on skis, wheels, rope and foot, then travelled through Southeast Asia and China and climbed the mountains of South America. To his delight, Aotearoa New Zealand fit like a fairytale slipper and it all clicked into place.

To this day, you can find him exploring this enchanting land of lush forests, snow-capped peaks above the emerald coloured sea.

He is proud to include National Geographic Magazine, LVMH, New Zealand Department of Conservation, MEO, KONO, Nelson Regional Development Agency, Pic’s Peanut Butter, New Zealand Government and many more as clients

Oliver passionately shares the magic - the essence of the open spaces that echo deep within.
