Anglican Church’s asylum ‘sanctuary’ bid

The Anglican Dean of Brisbane, Peter Catt, has proclaimed Queensland’s most prestigious cathedral a “sanctuary” for about 270 men, women and children facing deportation to Nauru, after the High Court, yesterday entrenched the legal basis for offshore processing.

The 115-year-old St John’s Cathedral — an emblem of the Queensland establishment — has today become one of at least ten churches across Australia to begin shielding asylum-seekers by invoking the ancient Christian tradition.

I'm based in Melbourne and needed images for a story on a really tight deadline. Called Glenn and he did the photoshoot, emailed me low res proofs and then delivered high res images in the space of a couple of days. Fantastic work that made my life easier but also images that were perfect for what we needed.

I’ve worked with Glenn on several occasions to shoot covers and features for two of our magazines, and am never disappointed. He understands the brief every time and takes a genuine interest in the mood we want to convey and the story we want to tell. He takes the the time to capture the perfect image... even if it means starting before dawn!Glenn is always helpful with retouching the final image selections. He’s easy to communicate with and friendly.Highly recommend!

The images Glenn captured as my wedding photographer were incredible. My husband and I were impressed by his ability to capture the essence of who we are as a couple and the personality of the bridal party. He put a great deal of thought into the locations we shot in and the style of the images. We have received many messages from our friends and family complimenting us on our wedding photos. Glenn was professional, thoughtful and has a real creative flare that is evident from his photographic masterpieces.

I recently worked with Glenn on a shoot for our brand campaign. His professionalism, and eye for detail made the shoot very easy for both myself and the subject. Combined with the fast turn around time in getting me the edited images made the process all the better. Definitely recommend and will use him again.

I have known Glenn for several years through our work in the media. He's a great photographer who easily adapts to whatever he is covering. Glenn is polite, respectful and friendly. He's also excellent at helping people to feel comfortable in front of the camera. Glenn recently took some professional photos of me when I launched my own business. I was incredibly nervous but he made me feel at ease and relaxed, which led to better photos. I'd recommend Glenn to anyone.

Glenn captured finalists and guests at our 2018 Three Minute Thesis competition final (a corporate event held in the evening), and was a pleasure to work with. Highly responsive in the lead-up to the event, Glenn was on-time, professional, took charge when required (to direct subjects), polite and friendly. He also managed to edit and email us event photos on the same day, which was wonderful. Very happy with his work, wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others.
