AUSTRALIAN EVENTS MISSION
Capturing the Spirit of Regional Australia – From rodeos to race meets, festivals to iconic outback traditions, Angela Butler brings your event to life through vibrant, storytelling photography. Book now to preserve the moments that matter.
After completing a lap of Australia, documenting outback events, photographer Angela Butler has now settled in the southwest region. From dusty rodeos to country race meets, vibrant bush festivals to the last of the old-world boxing troupes, she has captured the heart and soul of regional Australia—its resilience, traditions, and larger-than-life characters. Each event told a unique story, a fleeting moment in time that she preserved through her lens. Now, as she establishes herself in the southwest, she brings with her a body of work that reflects the spirit of the land and the communities that keep these traditions alive. Though her travels have paused, her passion for photographing rural Australia remains as strong as ever.
If you’re looking for an experienced event photographer who understands the energy, emotion, and importance of capturing these moments, Angela is now available to shoot your next event. Whether it’s a rodeo, race meet, festival, or community gathering, she brings years of experience and a deep appreciation for the outback spirit. Get in touch today to book your event coverage!
Rolling Stills & Shakey: A Creative Partnership on the Road
Rolling Stills & Shakey: A Creative Partnership on the Road
Photography meets live art in the Australian outback.
Ange Butler and Jacob "Shakey" Butler have carved out a unique space in the Australian creative scene — combining documentary photography and live art to capture and celebrate the spirit of regional Australia. Their partnership is more than a marriage — it’s a creative collaboration forged on red dirt roads, community events, and a shared love for storytelling.
Together, they’re building an art trail that spans the country, weaving through agricultural shows, dusty racetracks, tiny towns, and vast open spaces. As they travel, Ange documents the faces, stories, and landscapes of rural Australia, while Shakey paints live at events, offering his signature "live wedding art" experience and large-scale murals that reflect the local environment and culture.
Their shared goal?
To preserve and celebrate regional identity through visual art — creating a living, travelling exhibition of the people, places, and moments that define the heart of Australia.
What They Offer:
-
Event Documentation – Ange captures authentic images that celebrate local life and community spirit.
-
Live Painting Experiences – Shakey paints on site, offering a unique performance and a lasting artwork.
-
Collaborative Storytelling – Through murals, exhibitions, and social content, they tell regional Australia’s stories in real time.
Together, they bring something rare: art that moves with the people, honours the past, and uplifts the spirit of community resilience. Whether it's a bush race, a local rodeo, or a town hall wedding, Ange and Shakey are there to document and create, leaving behind more than just a memory — they leave a mark.
