Selected Work · Travel & Adventure

The Acropolis catching the last warm light above Athens, Lycabettus Hill beyond, pines in the foreground.
A backlit stone path below the Acropolis, a lone walker heading into golden light. A narrow Parga alley with late light falling down the stone.
Diving from the deck of the gulet, paddleboards scattered on the water below. The town seen through a ruined stone window frame. Laughing over dinner, foreground blurred, the table falling away behind.

Photography is how I hold onto the places that move me. From the sea, to the mountains, and everything in between.

“What stands out in Taylor’s work is his perspective. Whether shot by drone or camera, each frame tells a story of exploration.”

Lighting candles inside a dim Athens chapel, warm flame light.
A high five in the golden tussock above the Pacific, New Zealand.
Standing on Trolltunga with a flag, the fjord far below, Norway. A red door, cacti and hard afternoon light on a back street in Mallorca. Laughing at a harbourside table, warm lights blurred behind.
The sun going down behind the headland, boats anchored in silhouette.
Guests boarding the tender alongside the gulet, ropes and fenders in the foreground. Choosing pintxos under a ceiling of jamón, Donostia-San Sebastián. Boarding the gulet in Gaios harbour, framed dead centre by the bow.
A waterfall pouring into Milford Sound between dark fjord walls.
Two figures watching the island at dusk, the moon already up. The path into the Belogradchik fortress, Bulgaria. The striped arches and frescoes of Rila Monastery, Bulgaria.
Golden-hour giggles over a glass of wine on the harbourfront. Walking up to the Basilica of Covadonga as mist rolls off the Asturian hills. A couple wrapped up in each other in front of the Parthenon.

Personal Project

Personal Project: “Coastlines”

A visual study of coastal environments across Europe, focusing on colour, scale, and the relationship between land and water.

The coast has always felt like home. This one is ongoing.

A speedboat towing a ring across deep water, wake trails cutting the frame. Boats moored either side of a pier, seen straight down. Warm granite shelf meeting turquoise surf from above, one tiny figure on the rocks.
The curve of a beach where turquoise shallows meet deep water.
A tiny island church at dusk, the water gone soft and blue. A ringed green islet from above, a boat passing, Azores.
Rows of striped parasols from directly above, the sea cutting a diagonal across the sand.

Field Notes

The lookout, with my brothers

Humpridge Track, Southland · 2025

After five years away, I got home last summer. My brothers and I walked the Humpridge Track together, my first of New Zealand’s Great Walks.

This is the frame I keep coming back to: the two of them above the clouds as the light went down. Some of the best memories of my life.

About

I’m a New Zealand-born photographer living in Amsterdam. I’ve spent ten years carrying a camera through the places that move me: the sea, the mountains, and everything in between.

Photography is how I hold onto the moments that feel too good to forget. The look on someone’s face. The scale of a place you’re now dying to visit. My mum photographed families for a living. I think I inherited the instinct.

I shoot warm, colourful and alive. Stills, film and drone working as one kit, chasing natural moments, wide perspectives and the feeling of being properly inside a place.

Always keen for the next adventure.
