Gusha Team
At GUSHA we are passionate about the coastal brilliance of Australia. With beautiful beaches, lagoons, and lakes, outstanding National Parks, and magnificent coastal walks, it’s God’s country for us.
“These are exciting times for the art of photography and we are embracing new technologies with the aim to produce artworks that are bigger and more dramatic than they have ever been."
Living on Sydney's northern beaches, Angus Benham and Shaun Struik started GUSHA five years ago in pursuit of the perfect coastal landscape.
“That’s what we do. We just get out there in this blessed country and capture what we see and feel – we love to show off what Australia has to offer.”
Our Background
With obscure backgrounds including a Master of Science, and a Hospitality Management degree, Angus and Shaun have had to combine their talents to create a business that was inspired originally by a five week tour of southern Africa. “We shot 35mm film and captured more than 300 photos each – wow that used to be a heap of photos! We had friends and family north of Sydney at Hawks Nest and Port Stephens.”
These are stunning locations for beach scenes and wildlife and we began photographing more seriously (now digitally) and began selling photography on canvas at the then, small café, ‘Nicoles Art Gallery and Café’ in Tea Gardens, and at a small gift store in Nelson Bay – ‘Entice U’.
Living on the northern beaches has enabled GUSHA to capture some of the best coastal scenery that Australia has to offer and as the photographic portfolio grows we’re excited about what the future has in store. As a small team of four professionals the landscape images have been captured to be displayed as large canvas artworks.
