POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Pivoting is natural in both business and life. I chose to invest in videography because I genuinely love it. Like most videographers, I’ve tried a bit of everything to figure out what I enjoy most and what suits my lifestyle.

After some thought, I’ve decided to focus on wellness and fitness events. Not only do I enjoy capturing this kind of content, but the community and sense of purpose it gives me is exactly why I want to pursue this path. I’ve run six half marathons and am taking on my first full marathon with my brother in six weeks. Everyone has a story and a reason for being part of these events, and I want to be the one to showcase them.

This passion led me to filming an Ironman with my best friend, and it was the most fun I’ve ever had behind the camera. Capturing the tough moments, the support systems, and the pure sense of accomplishment from something someone has worked so hard for is incredibly rewarding.

With that realisation, I’ve begun to slowly rebrand and I’m excited for this next chapter. If you’re an athlete, event organiser, or business within the wellness industry, let’s connect. taken in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia by @authentic.takes

August marked 6 very special months of Navix Performance Community Sunday Sessions 🫶🏻

We’ve had the pleasure of bringing together so many amazing people through movement, training and community, and we couldn’t be more grateful for everyone who has shown up along the way.

We had the pleasure of collaborating with @authentic.takes to capture our Sunday community session, and we couldn’t think of a better team to tell the story of what Navix Community is all about.

Authentic, welcoming and inclusive.

A space where you can come exactly as you are, train alongside others, challenge yourself, have a laugh and feel like you belong.

Because for us, performance isn’t just about what happens during the session. It’s about the people you surround yourself with and the community you build along the way.

6 months of community. So many memories. And we’re only just getting started. 🫶🏼

Thank you to everyone who continues to make Navix Performance what it is.

Gold Coast Half Marathon through my eyes

Amongst cheering for friends and taking in the atmosphere of the Gold Coast I did take a few clips while I was amongst the action. I didn’t take as much as I wanted to but from what I did I’m very happy with the clips. Capturing the feeling of nerves and excitement on the start line to seeing the hard work and determination right at the end. You can see how much it means to these runners on their faces at the end. This is running!

Congratulations to those who took part and a special mention to those who came out on top

At 27 I finally figured out what I want to do with my life.

When I left college I had no clue what I wanted to do with my life. That lead me to follow Paige to Melbourne at the age of 18 and it was the best decision of my life. I found my passion for cameras and I’m finally documenting my journey of making this full time. With my love for fitness and story telling, I am excited to be working within the wellness community and share individual and businesses stories to the world. Let’s get creating! taken in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia by @authentic.takes

Few of my favourite snippets capturing the essence of a fun filled day with @dayonephysio

These are just a few examples of shots you can use to elevate your running/sport content. Capturing community, reactions and of course the action. taken in The Tan Running Track, Royal Botanic Gardens by @authentic.takes

The definition of a run and gun video shoot

Trying to keep up while capturing the pace, the people, and the energy of the morning. Safe to say Kris and I got our steps up on this one!

Loved being part of the @dayonephysio run and bringing the atmosphere to life through this video.

Nothing beats shooting events where the energy is genuine and everyone’s just there to show up and have fun!
