In the 1960s & 1970s he photographed for advertising, fashion, magazine editorial and theater, and worked on numerous short films as a cinematographer. In 1974 and 1977 he received 2 Visual Arts Board Travel Grants from the Australia Council for the Arts, which enabled him to live in London and later New York. He had exhibitions at Light Gallery, NY in 1976 & 1977 as well as Photographers’ Gallery, London; Australian Centre for Photography, Sydney; and Powell Street Gallery, Melbourne. In 1977 he moved to Los Angeles, and in 1979 there was a survey exhibition of his photographs at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Wash., D.C.; the same year he began to show at the Rosamund Felsen Gallery.
In the 1980s he had editorial assignments for American and international publications including Harper’s Bazaar, Esquire, Fortune, House and Garden, Architectural Digest, Vanity Fair, Los Angeles Times, New York Times, among many others.

The exhibition traveled to Philadelphia Museum of Art; Centre Georges Pompidou; The Museum of Modern Art, NY; Museum of Modern Art Gunma, Japan; Kimbell Art Museum, Ft Worth; and Wexner Center for the Arts, Columbus, OH.
