Dreamscape shots served in Bellmere
LOCAL photographer Kieran Collard is bringing the Sunshine Coast’s natural beauty to Bellmere, with his new exhibition The Dream Coast now on indefinite display at AM Café.
The series features a collection of striking landscape photographs that transform iconic coastal scenes into dreamlike, ethereal visions. Using long-exposure techniques, Collard captures the magic of beaches, waterfalls, and hinterland escapes in a way that blurs the line between reality and imagination.
Collard said the collection reflects the sense of wonder and escape the Sunshine Coast offers, where visitors can move “from stunning beach to majestic waterfall in the span of a day.”
“Living in or visiting this unique part of the world can feel like entering a dream,” he said.
“That’s the feeling I wanted to capture with these images.”
Visitors can enjoy the exhibition while dining at AM Café, which has partnered with Collard to provide a permanent showcase for his work. In addition to landscapes, Collard also specialises in people, portrait, and fashion photography. His portfolio can be found on Instagram at @kierancollardphotography.
‘The Dream Coast’ exhibition is open to the public during AM Café’s regular hours at 96–110 Bellmere Rd.
