After a brief holiday to Darwin as a teenager, visiting Kakadu National Park, and witnessing the intense storms during the Top End’s wet season, Beau Mitchell knew he had found his true passion in landscape photography.
Drawing inspiration from the stunning locations he had visited on this trip to Darwin, Beau purchased his first digital SLR camera and began his journey, adding photographs of classic Australian landscapes to his now ever growing collection of images.
Currently based in Perth, Western Australia, but having also spent time living on Queensland’s Gold Coast, has allowed Beau the opportunity to travel extensively to a diverse range of locations around the country. From the lush sub-tropical rain forests of South East Queensland, to the harsh red landscapes of Western Australia’s Pilbara region, Beau has witnessed and captured some amazing light and scenery along the way.
As a completely self taught photographer, over the years Beau has developed his own distinct style of photograph; that of strong composition, vibrant colour and deep contrast.
For Beau being out in the wilderness shooting photographs is an escape from the routines of an everyday life. Forever in search of the perfect photograph, the journey continues…
