For the past couple of years I’ve been very happy to contribute photographs to the Groundswell journal. If you haven’t yet jumped aboard Groundswell is a giving platform for climate action and anyone can become a member. They are a highly effective organisation with a mission to accelerate and amplify climate action in Australia by creating a community of givers who fund strategic, high-impact climate advocacy. They pool their money and make grants to people and organisations tackling the climate crisis in Australia.
For this assignment, I was asked to capture Hollie Kerwin lawyer from Environmental Justice Australia in the casual setting of her family home for an article that would be featured in Issue 4 of Wonderground Press as part of a community partnership with Groundswell.
I love doing these assignments as I get to spend time with some of the best community activist minds in our country. Hollie was no exception. Her fierce intellect was coupled with a generosity of spirit that made for a wonderful couple of hours spent. I feel honoured to be a part of these assignments.
You can read the inspiring article by Jessica Bineth here. Another article that I contributed to were these ones about climate campaigner and Campaigns Director for Seed Indigenous Youth Climate Network Tishiko King and Denise Cauchi the Executive Director of Doctors for the Environment Australia.
Last three images were supplied by Wonderground Press.
