Justin's style is heavily influenced by West Coast coastal beach and bush. He tries to eliminate housing and to bring in the feeling of isolation, away from the mechanical city's hustle and bustle of every day life, although he does enjoy taking shots of surfers on waves to show movement and people at play.

He enjoys tackling storms to capture the different moods of the rugged West Coast and can't get enough of the magical sunsets and gold reflecting clouds they create.

Justin fell in love with the West Coast at 12 years of age and as a young surfer, it has been a goal of his to live and own a house at Piha. He fell into photography due to the mere beauty of his surroundings and wanting to capture the way he saw the coast on camera.

Showing his friends and family they soon became interested in his work and started buying his pictures and pushing him to get them into galleries. This lead to showing in a couple of galleries who really appreciated his style and since then his works have been selling successfully.

In the future, Justin would like to travel from the top of the North Island all the way to the bottom of the South Island, along the West Coast, capturing NZ's entire West Coast beauty.
