Hello, my name is David Rogers and I am an over-enthusiastic landscape photographer currently based on the beautiful South Coast of NSW. I had the great fortune to grow up in one of the idyllic seaside towns on this amazing coast, and spent my youth rock-hopping along unspoiled coastlines and exploring the numerous National Parks, lagoons and forests.
After many years of living and working in cities I recently returned to focus on my photography. My goal is to capture this spectacular landscape in an intimate way – by watching and understanding how each location reacts under different environmental conditions – whether it be the seasons, sun-angles, swell-size, tide-levels, wind directions, cloud patterns, star trails or moon cycles.
For me, loading the backpack with photography equipment and hiking out to shoot sunrise or sunset is the ultimate bliss.
My working background is in publishing, advertising and lifestyle media. I have been extremely fortunate to work with some of the world’s leading brands at Australia's top publishing houses. My shift in career was prompted by my observation of the changing nature of media consumption. Consumers are now focused on mobile devices, and as peoples’ digital attention span decreases, I can see the immense importance and value of a powerful image to command this attention. I hope to combine my two passions – photography & media – to help brands achieve their marketing goals through powerful imagery, and to remind people of the beauty of this planet.
I hope you enjoy my work… and my journey.
