Welcome to MARTY POUWELSE PHOTOGRAPHY
I'm a Brisbane based portrait, wedding, event and commercial photographer. I'm friendly and down-to-earth with a strong focus on creativity. My images are striking but affordable.
I also have a passion for cityscapes, landscapes, and severe weather. You can check out my storm chase pics and reports mainly from around Brisbane and SE Qld, but I've also made a couple of trips to Darwin and the Top End during it's magnificent wet season.
I've been lucky enough to capture images while flying with the aerobatic stunt team, the RAAF Roulettes, and from aboard the amazing powered blimp, the Holden Airship.
Most of my images can be purchased for corporate use or as framed, unframed or block-mounted prints.
