Hey - That’s Me!
Hey there! Welcome! Thought we would do a little bit of an introduction to Raw Media Co. For those who don't know me: I am Josh, the creative director and photographer behind @rawmediaco.aus!
For the last 10 years or so, my photography journey has specialised and revolved more around The Liquid Collective (@liquidcollectiveau), specialising in commercial lifestyle and action sport content, mainly based around snowsports and surfing lifestyles. As part of this, there have been periods where I delved into shooting some real estate and houses for friends and family. This ultimately allowed me to start assisting with a number of other amazingly skilled photographers working in the same space, assisting them to shoot luxury homes and prize homes and, thus, sparking my own personal interest in architectural photography that you can finally see here now.
In conjunction with this side of my life, I am also a SBINZ qualified Level 3 snowboard instructor for the last ten years, with a huge amount of this work based internationally, travelling and living around the world (including in New Zealand, Australia, the United States, Canada and Japan). I love to travel and experience beautiful new places and cultures, new mountains and meet new friends, documenting the ride along the way.
A few fun facts:
✖️I grew up surfing and love to be around the ocean
✖️I am an average mountain biker (it scares the shit out of me but I love it - it’s nice to feel like a loser at something every now and again. Reminds me that there is always room to improve)
✖️I love cars and motorbikes, especially old muscle cars and custom bike builds, and have just upgraded to my first 4x4 which means a lot more beach driving, camping trips and adventures are to come - stay tuned!
✖️I have the biggest sweet tooth you have ever seen (blame my grandma for that one!)
✖️I work hard for everything that I have and do, and have such a strong intrinsic drive to do well, better myself, grow, and make my dreams a reality - cause I don’t really know what else I would be doing if I wasn’t doing this!
I'm sure there's a lot more I could talk about, but that's a start. Come explore my world by checking our website, the link is in our bio.
Thanks for taking the time to visit. It’s very appreciated and we hope you will enjoy the journey with us.
