Description

Nestled along a quiet stretch of Queensland's Moonie Highway, Westmar is home to a welcoming country roadhouse and pub. With cold beers, warm hospitality and an authentic country experience, it's the perfect place to refuel – both your tank and your spirit. Recent rains had transformed the landscape, adding bursts of color to the usual earthy tones, with vibrant bougainvillea spilling over a lone phone booth. It's a striking yet gentle reminder of the unexpected beauty in the bush, the power of connection, and the resilience of those who call it home.

Biography

Growing up in a small border town, Stirling’s photography is deeply influenced by an idyllic childhood. Long days in the saddle chasing adventures, escaping the heat by the Barwon River, and sharing stories around the fire – always surrounded by family and friends. This instilled in Stirling a love for storytelling, rural Australia, and capturing authentic connections. Now based in Dalby, Queensland, Stirling brings this same passion to photographing weddings, families, events, and editorial projects.
