About Bo

Creative Freelancer + Educator

With over two decades working as a professional photographer in the arts and culture sectors, Bo has become uniquely placed to understand the changing needs of creatives and small businesses in an increasingly digital landscape.

A natural collaborator, Bo brings expertise and humour to every program, project, workshop and conversation.

Bo actively champions other creatives and changemakers through mentoring, workshops, immersive programs, and consulting, while continuing to exhibit her own work.

Bo continues to be passionate about elevating the role of the arts in our broader culture – and caring for the wellbeing of our workers.

Bo lives, works and swims in two of the most beautiful places on earth: Kwoorabup Denmark and Walyalup, Fremantle in Western Australia.
