Petrina Tinslay
Welcome back to season two of The Photorian. My first guest in the new season is the brilliant Petrina Tinslay. I first became aware of Petrina back in 90's whilst I was working for Marie Claire. The stunning images that she was producing with Donna Hay were to completely change food photography and propel Petrina to being one of the most in demand photographers of her generation. A huge thank you to Petrina for taking the time to chat with me about her career and I hope you will enjoy her story.

John Gollings
I’m thrilled to have the master Australian photographer John Gollings on the show. Part of the inspiration for The Photorian was to talk with the most important and respected photographers and John has been a mentor and inspiration for my entire career.
John’s global reputation as one of the most outstanding photographers Australia has ever produced and his lifelong love of photography, combined with his ability to find inspiration in both his personal and commissioned works.
John Gollings made his first photographs and received darkroom tuition at age eleven; he later studied Arts/Architecture at Melbourne University, supporting himself through architectural and wedding photography.
In 1967 he received private tuition from Ansel Adams in his darkroom at Carmel, California. He has taught the use of large format cameras, and lectured on architecture and advertising photography at Prahran College, Melbourne and Sydney universities and the Philip Institute, amongst others. Recently he has focused on longer-term projects including books, exhibitions and fine prints.
John Gollings specializes in the documentation of cities, old and new, a lot of it from the air. He has had a particular interest in the cyclic fires and floods, which characterize the Australian landscape. These have been documented with aerial photography.
