Dean has spent the better part of two decades travelling the world, taking epic photos and sharing his knowledge with people. An avid adventurer, he is at home equally on a camel in the Sahara as he is watching opera in Vienna. Over the past 8 years Dean has advised and coached more than 350 people on effective and enjoyable use of social media platforms, has his own YouTube channel and website, and has never met a sentence he can't improve with hashtag. A collector of GoPro cameras (he has about 8 at last count!), he has now added 2 drones to his stable (because one is always lonely!) and has produced some dreamy sunset shots along with some epic videos of his travels.

Justine has been travelling the world officially for four decades, and capturing images of those travels on a variety of devices over the years. An avid 'Grammer  for over 10 years - first whilst working in Event Management for a large sporting body, then on her personal account - she has an aversion to posting images of herself but is more than happy sharing her photos of icons, obscure views, glasses with inspiring backgrounds, and a lot of fridge magnets. In 2019, upon being given the moniker by a fabulous friend, Justine became the #FridgeMagnetBandit and in 2020 she started the Instagram hashtags #DreamTodayTravelTomorrow and #PostcardsOfFutureTravel because dreaming was all we could do at that point. A film editor in an alternate universe, music plays an important part in her videos. She is never far from her Samsung, FujiFilm or GoPro but also enjoys stepping away from the viewfinder and just watching the world go by.

HMW was born from a long friendship, a shared interest in helping people connect through social media and an autocorrect error. HMW - Horsey My Weaver - was a message Justine received from Dean many years ago that still makes them laugh today. Legend has it that Dean was walking and texting and autocorrect changed "happy with weather" to "horsey my weaver"...at least that's the way he tells it! It could have been "have more wine" or "how much walking", but horsey my weaver it was. Either way, the weather changed, wine was had, HMW stuck and now influences many things they do...including turning autocorrect off!
