    Living with neurofibromatosis is what fuels Thomas' passion for this art, and he loves going into Melbourne regularly to capture the moments on the streets, both by day and night. Thomas is also incredibly proud to have spearheaded the World Neurofibromatosis Awareness Day project, personally uniting over two hundred landmarks across Australia to illuminate in blue and green in May to raise awareness for NF.

  • Cats vs Dogs... but for Photographers - The Random Photography Show
    Aug 17 2026

    Cats or dogs. It's the oldest argument going, but tonight we're actually settling it as photographers.

    Greg's a cat person. Justin's a dog person. And it turns out the two animals are completely different to shoot. Dogs give you everything, eye contact, expression, they'll hold a look and they actually want to please the camera. Cats give you nothing on purpose. You have to wait and steal the moment when it happens, a bit like street photography with claws.

    So the real question underneath all the tribal stuff is this. Do you prefer a subject that performs for you, or one you have to catch? We go back and forth on it, drag in some real pet shoot footage, and let the live chat pick a side.

  • A conversation with Aaron Walker (EP208)
    Aug 13 2026

    Originally from London, Aaron ran away with the circus to become an aerial acrobat touring the world, an aerial coach and show consultant. His love of travel and working with physically dynamic artists led to a deep passion in capturing these moments with a creative photography practice that celebrates the power and uniqueness of the physical form.

    Aarons photography is how he see’s the world around him, full of people and places that are full of energy, vibrancy and colour.

    From dynamic editorial portraits and lifestyle hero shots to immersive coverage of events, live productions, and brand promotions, Aaron works across the full lifecycle of a project. Whether it's crafting a visual identity for an event or documenting the atmosphere as it unfolds, he brings a cohesive, story-driven approach to every shoot.

    Aaron works with a wide range of clients spanning visual and performing arts companies, tour operators, government, not for profit organisations and the corporate sector.
