Here’s little more about Vicki

Vicki began her career with a Bachelor Degree in Education (Art and Craft). This journey commenced with a dual passion in Portrait Photography and Fine Art Photography. The visual possibilities bought about by the digital age opened the door creatively for Vicki.

Vicki has since been rewarded with many accolades locally and internationally, including the AIPP 2011 Victorian Fine Art Photographer of the Year and 2010 Victorian Portrait Photographer of the Year.

“I am an artist in my heart and soul, in the way I see, think and feel. Photography is my vehicle and my craft that enables my imagery to present itself. The journey from concept to presentation has to be exceptional all the way. The final print is the platform or stage for my imagery to exist on, for all time and beyond my lifetime.

I have a love of “childhood” in all its imagination and I create memories that have never existed. I aim to present a delicate dreamscape with a harmony of tone, texture and colour. All these elements come together to gift a story that the viewer can personalise and interpret.”

It has come to our attention that not all new Nikon equipment sold in Western Australia has been sourced from the official suppliers, Nikon Australia. This practice, sometimes referred to as Grey Importing, can have significant consequences for customers who unknowingly purchase from an unauthorised dealer. The equipment will not be covered by an Australian Warranty and will almost certainly have to be returned to the country of origin if service is required. Sometimes a little saving can turn into a whole world of pain.

Nikons policy is quite clear – here is a section from their website:

What does owning a “Grey Market” Nikon product mean to you?

Nikon Australia cannot provide any technical support or warranty service on Grey Market items. Please do not contact Nikon Australia for help with any Grey Market products. Please contact the reseller or importer of your Grey Market items for warranty and service information as well as software updates and downloads. However, Nikon Australia are still able to perform fee-based repair work on Grey Market items if necessary.

How do you know if it’s a grey import? Simple!

If the warranty card doesn’t have “Nikon Australia” in the red square as shown below, then it is a grey import product.

Here’s a link to the Nikon Australia authorised resellers page

Team Digital have always supported the local industry and will continue to do so.
