A specialist in performing arts and live events photography, Robert is a native of Toronto, Canada, now resident in New Zealand.

His work appears in 'The Making of The Lord Of The Rings' and the official LOTR Fan Club magazine, the Los Angeles Times, OnFilm, Organic Style, Rip It Up and D-Photo, and in promotional material for arts & events organisations throughout New Zealand.

"If there's one element that ties together my work, it is the feeling of being involved, rather than a spectator," says Robert. "That's what I aim for in any image, to capture or distill the essence of that instant - whether it's that key detail which summarises a certain place, or the perfect second of an event."

Robert is a member of the AIPA and Editorial Photographers organisations.

(And, for those who were wondering: it's pronounced CAT-oh, like cat, rather than KAY-Toe, like cake.)
