Spreading Love & Good Vibes

Average papa that broke out of 9-5 to work 24/7 doing what I love. Spreading love & good vibes one pixel at a time, raising funds for Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre & Ukraine Support.

Hi, I'm Eugene & I Love capturing our local surroundings with my Droneski

Since June 2021, I've been capturing our beautiful surroundings to lift the moods of fellow lockdown inmates during hard times.

I share all of my work for free for personal use via this gallery. For commercial use, I accept a direct donation to Peter Mac and occasionally raise funds for Ukraine support projects.

I'm blessed to have escaped the 9-5, to work 24/7 on what I love, which is helping businesses succeed by building and ranking websites, as well as running SEO, Google Ads, and Facebook Ads.

I'm not looking for more work, but happy to give free advice to any local business in the Melbourne bayside area.

You can check out what I do here at Ranked and CMO Eugene.

My recent passion project is called Cossack Sauna, a range of portable woodfire sauna tents for 4-12 people.

Big shout out to Andrey from Laius Electrics in Aspendale!

I’ve worked with Andrey for years now, and he’s been a real support to our local community.

When we were helping a Ukrainian family settle in, Andrey was one of the first people to reach outto support! More importantly, he kept checking in and continued to help. That says a lot about the kind of person he is.

Since then, I’ve engaged him for a range of work, including, CCTV security, switchboard upgrades, EV charger installation and general residential electrical jobs.

He’s reliable, easy to deal with, and knows his trade. I’ve also seen him help local families, businesses, neighbours, and body corporate properties across Aspendale and the wider Bayside area.

It’s always good to work with someone local who genuinely cares. Thanks again, Andrey!

In 2021 I met John Isaakidis, a fellow Aspendale Community Hub veteran, and a professional photographer who runs a local print business with his son. John has golden hands and is your man in Chelsea to get these printed! John can be contacted on 0409 937 387 and here are some of his photos.

FAQ

No.

But if you're a non-profit, community event, reach out, as I may be able to assist.

I'm purely a hobbyist who flies in my spare time between nappy runs and building websites for clients.

When able, I volunteer my time to capture events at non-profit clubs in the area, but, once again, only on rare occasions that the toddler-and-wife-mood gods align.

I can recommend some local pros!

For small business videograph and social media content creation, Aaron from W-Key Media (https://wkeymedia.com.au/) is a gun - 0413670421

For drone-specific project work, Drone Pilot Pete (https://dronepilotpete.com.au/), is a local legend and a great bloke - 0413 596 581 - info@dronepilotpete.com.au

I'm a pixel nerd who figured out how to use Photoshop last century.

For video, while Adobe Premiere Pro is king for professional edits, I find that CapCut is perfect for a time-poor hobbyist like me.

For phone-captured clips, I love CapCut's cloud functionality to sync projects to the desktop for quicker edit workflows.

For images, I use Lightroom, which is automatically synced from the cloud to my phone or my Sony A7V camera.
