Yes Campaign

Photographer & Videographer

Emotions were running high during the plebiciste that would ultimately decide the fate of Australia’s LGBT+ citizens. Though many had the loving support of broad communities, rural queer people were left especially vulnerable.

Heading the call, a group of gay men from every political persuasion descended on rural areas to help turn out the YES vote - including myself. Along the way, I came to document this mini-campaign in a series of videos and photos.

The road to equality was long - but like no journey you've ever seen before.

I acknowledge the First Nations Peoples of the land in which I work - the Turrbal from the Northside of the Brisbane River and the Yuggera from the Southside of the Brisbane River.

I honour their Elders - past, present and emerging – and show respect for their continued cultural and spiritual connection to the lands and waters.
