My name is Jean Pierre Mardaga and most people just call me Pierre. It’s a pleasure to introduce myself. I have been an AIPP photographer since the early 90s and have enjoyed taking part in many of the events held. You can find my listing by clicking here.
Yearly the AIPP hold many events such as the celebrated awards. I have been fortunate to have won many awards at this yearly event and some of my award winning photos can be viewed in the gallery above.
During a 5 years period I was part of the NSW state council. I was involved in helping to organise many of the events held throughout the year for the members and looking after the sponsors. Seeing how much work that goes on behind the scenes in this organisation is phenomenal and it’s all voluntary.
I started PM Photo in 1995 in Drummoyne and have enjoyed photographing thousands of photo sessions in Sydney. Being a photographer is a great privilege as we are invited to capture life’s most important people around us, being our family and friends.
