I visited my Grandfather in England, Jack Freakley, who was a acclaimed amateur photographer who gave me a tour in his dark room. I really enjoyed seeing what he showed me. Apon my return, I show my interest in photography by insisting that I would take all the family photographs. With very little knowledge and dare I say, talent my parents gave me my first camera. It was an old Minolta compact camera. I took many photo's with it, reading several books. My favourite being John Hedgecoe. After a year or so, my parents saw that I had the makings of a great photographer and bought me my first SLR. It was a Nikon FE. After showing great enthusiasm and excessive practice, I decided that I really wanted to take it further and enrolled in a course at National College of Photography which was lecture by Martin Onsner and Bod Ried. I have a great time and was truly encourage by them. As I grew, so did my photographic skills and it called for me to open my own studio. I managed to spread the word through my job at FotoFirst, where I worked over weekends. The studio had lights and a dark room with changing facilities (My parents let me make use of the demostic quarters behind the house) which let me get into on of my passionate genre's, fashion and commercial photography. I regularily asked my Grandfather for advice who regreatably passed away before he could see how well I was doing. As time went on, my hunger for success grew greater and I knew I needed to do something to satisfy it. I took my studies further after Grade 12 in graphic design. Seeing what I could do with graphic design and photography in my arsenal, I studied marketing and had a two job offers at the end of my first year. I took a position as Marketing Director of Lasrow Construction (Pty) Ltd where I thouroghly enjoyed building the corporate identity of the firm but never had the passion in the construction industry. I moved on to a high performance protective clothing company as a sales manager called Pulse Shield (Pty) Ltd. I worked very hard to give the corporate identity to be aligned with the competition in the market. Through doing this, I became a director of HazCor, the complete facelift of Pulse Shield. I ran the marketing and sales department, even headed up a new design fire suit development team but still was craving more. I then moved on, still with a sense of frustration, wanting to take my skills further and went into the consumer market. I was given the opportunity to own a stake in Modular Comforts (Pty) Ltd. I really had a great and exciting challenge with Modular Comforts, really pushing my skills but something was still missing. During these years, i leaned the art of lightning photography and got involed in active storm chasing, this is when I was known as DangerousDave. After many years of chasing, I eventually got my photographs published in the Pretoria News, front page. I knew the power of nature and how awesome it is. Ithen got myself interested in reptiles and reptile photography. Having many specimen's of my ownI started researching them and found that many people were killing these innocent creatures out of superstician and ignorance. I decided to volunteer at Chameleon Village Reptile & Conservation Park. Volunteering was not new to me as I am a member of Round Table Pretoria 136 and have done much to help the communities around us. Unforunately there are very few organisations that help the ones which freak us out. I then decided to give everything up and joind the team at Chameleon Village Reptile & Conservation Park and use my skills in photography, graphic design, marketing and business management to save those whose can't save themselves. ]]> http://www.modelbase.co.za/viewpic_159460.html Mon, 22 Mar 2010 16:24:43 +0200 My passion for photography started when I was 13.

I like relaxed shoots & just to have some fun & get a few shots in the process. Being new to this side of photography I'm no pose expert, so any experience in that department would be a great help as I keep finding myself going back to a standard head & shoulders. If you're keen for a shoot, drop a line at adrenalinstar@hotmail.com or give a ring 082 697 9946 ]]> http://www.modelbase.co.za/viewpic_159442.html Mon, 22 Mar 2010 12:48:41 +0200 I mainly shoot action sports, but have found myself getting more & more into portraiture & am really keen to improve my people shots.

I believe that one never really gets to the point where you know it all and enjoy discovering new things about this wonderful world of photography daily. I consider myself fortunate to earn my daily bread on both sides of a camera]]> http://www.modelbase.co.za/viewpic_159430.html Mon, 22 Mar 2010 11:23:57 +0200 I am a young, outgoing model, with a spontaneous attitude.
