About

Belle Tweedale is a fine art photographer whose practice blends visual storytelling, archival digitisation, and exhibition curation. Her work examines the intersection of historical narratives and contemporary photography, transforming overlooked moments into immersive imagery that challenges perception and evokes emotion.

With a Master of Arts in Photography, Belle’s creative approach is informed by historical research, experimental processes, and layered narratives. Her background in IT security at global organisations—including IBM, Ansett Australia, British Airways, UBS Warburg, and Coles Myer—has instilled in her an analytical mindset and structured problem-solving skills, which now shape her meticulous approach to photography, research, and curatorial projects.

Beyond her artistic practice, she is actively involved in photographic education, industry judging, and workshop facilitation, fostering creativity and professional development. Her experience spans curating exhibitions, digitising archives, and leading photography workshops, ensuring a methodical yet innovative approach to visual storytelling.

Her work has been exhibited in galleries across Australia and featured in leading photography publications, reinforcing her reputation as a storyteller who bridges the past and present through imagery.
