Luke Anthony Hugh Kneale was born in Sydney (Australia) in 1978. He maintained a
deep affinity for his coastal surroundings and natural environment
throughout his childhood.
His first interest in photography was evident in high school. At fifteen, he was inspired by such professional Australian
artists as David Moore and Max Dupain. He studied photography at school
and his natural ability was immediately recognised by his peers. He
started photographing the streets of Sydney and soon developed an
extensive portfolio. He began to take photography more seriously in 2004
and launched saltwater photography with a view to specialising
in large-format photography. His work is already being sold world-wide
and he has resellers jumping to distribute his work.
Luke has travelled the Australian continent extensively, from the
tropical climates of far North Queensland, to the snowy peaks of
Tasmania, to the serenity implicit in the far reaches of Western
Australia and the Australian outback. Travel inspired
him to photograph some remarkable landscapes of beaches, snowy
mountains, seascapes and other natural wonders. His passion to explore
has also taken him on expeditions to islands of the pacific and
southeast Asia. In fact, Luke was photographing some of the very work
displayed on this website only three weeks prior to the Boxing Day
Tsunami which devastated the southern beaches of Asia.
