Over the Easter weekend families pack cars with tents and children to head off on a long weekend adventure. I awoke on early on Easter Monday to 100% humidity and little to no visibility in the Ku-ring-gai National Park.

Will Hartl is an Australian portrait and lifestyle photographer living and working on Gadigal Land in Sydney.

Blending documentary realism and advertising with a cinematic sensibility, his work captures quiet, human moments with a warmth and narrative clarity.

Drawn to the character of people and their places, Will creates images that feel intimate and considered, revealing the enduring hope within everyday life.
