Richard studied Fine Art in his native UK
before moving to Hong Kong to work in
TV commercial production. Encouraged
by his boss, Richard branched out on his
own as a commercial and advertising
photographer, shooting for advertising
agencies throughout Asia. Relocating
to Australia in the mid-1990s, Richard
changed direction to concentrate on
editorial work and has worked regularly
for a host of local and overseas magazines,
including Who, Women’s Day, FHM,
Qantas Magazine and Virgin Voyeur.
Rikki-Paul Bunder studied photography at
James Cook University and graduated as their
highest achieving photography student. Upon
graduation, Rikki made the move to Melbourne
and embarked on a career as an advertising
photographer. The first few years he shot
everything from architectural photography
to lifestyle before specialising in automotive
working with some of Australia’s high profile
advertising clients, including Honda, Lexus,
Toyota, and General Motors just to name a few.
Rikki has also travelled throughout SouthEast Asia training police forces in the use of
advanced high resolution crime scene capture
cameras. Rikki brings to CATC an enthusiasm
to share this experience with the next
generation of young aspiring photographers.
Guy’s passion for photography grew whilst
studying at Charles Sturt University,
where he successfully graduated with
a Bachelor Arts Photography and
Master of Arts Practice Photomedia.
Some of his more celebrated subjects
have included Oscar winner Geoffrey
Rush, the late crocodile hunter Steve
Irwin, singer/songwriter Delta Goodrem
and entrepreneur Sir Richard Branson.
Richard is as excited today about
photography as the first time he picked up
a camera: “Teaching’s a great way to share
my passion as well as my experience.”
