🌿📸 Here on the Mornington Peninsula, we’re surrounded by breathtaking coastlines, rolling vineyards, and hidden trails, and our local photographers know just how to capture the magic. In our Image Takeover series, we’re celebrating the talented visual storytellers who frame those perfect #MorningtonPeninsula moments to share with you. Each week, we introduce a new photographer, giving you fresh perspectives and stunning imagery that showcase the beauty and essence of our region. Today we meet 📸 @benjamineriksson.photography Hi everyone, I’m Ben! I’ve called the Mornington Peninsula home for around seven years, but my connection to this place began much earlier. As a kid, my grandparents had a holiday house in Rye, and I’d spend my days sailing, fishing, and playing in the sand (including one memorable encounter with a crab on my big toe!). It’s safe to say I fell in love with the Peninsula early, and I’m so grateful to now live and work here. I’m a photographer, workshop leader, and licensed Parks Victoria Tour Operator, running photography tours and fine art printing from my Rosebud studio. My passion lies in capturing nature’s quiet wonders from whales breaching offshore to birds in flight, from glowing ghost fungi to spectacular auroras and lightning storms that light up the sky. What I love most is sharing that passion with others. Helping people discover photography as a creative outlet and seeing them connect with the beauty of the natural world is endlessly rewarding. The Mornington Peninsula offers that magic in bucket loads; you have to step outside and look. I believe life isn’t short, and it just doesn’t wait. So, get out there: watch that sunset, spot that whale, and capture that fleeting moment that takes your breath away.

Today we meet 📸 @vicki_walsh_photography Hi everyone, I’m Vicki! The Mornington Peninsula has been part of my life for as long as I can remember; it’s where generations of my family have lived, laughed, and made memories. This deep personal connection inspires my photography and keeps me returning to capture the magic of the region I love most. The Peninsula’s landscapes are wonderfully diverse, from calm, glassy bay beaches to wild, rugged back beaches lined with cliffs and rock pools. Each has its own mood, its own rhythm, and its own story to tell. Through my lens, I aim to capture the ever-changing light, colours, and textures that make this place so special. Some of my favourite spots to photograph include: 📍 McCrae 📍 Dromana 📍 Rosebud 📍 Sierra Nevada Rock For me, each image is a love letter to the Mornington Peninsula, a way of sharing the beauty and emotion I feel every time I’m here.

Today we meet 📸 @tomputtphotography Hi everyone, I’m Tom! The Mornington Peninsula is my home, my inspiration, and the heart of my photography. For the past 10 years, I’ve lived here with my family, raising five kids and running my gallery on Main Street, Mornington. Every time I step outside with my camera, I’m reminded of just how breathtakingly diverse this landscape is. I love heading out before sunrise to watch the first golden light touch the land, or staying until sunset as the last glow fades into the horizon. Photography, for me, is about telling the story of this place and inviting others to see it through my eyes. The Mornington Peninsula is a living, breathing work of art, and every time I photograph it, I feel deeply grateful to call it home. I’m thrilled to share my latest project, The Mornington Peninsula Coastal Edition, a 240-page collection of aerial and seascape photography celebrating the raw power and tranquil beauty of our coastline.
