James Braund was born on the wild plains of Wallaroo, South Australia. Raised by his unforgiving grandmother who sadly had numerous ailments including a club foot, poor eyesight and Tourette's Syndrome. During a BBQ to celebrate James’ ninth birthday, his introverted and highly inebriated uncle gifted him a polaroid camera to play with as he was developing undesirable tendencies to remain in close proximity to his grandmother, especially on social occasions.

The rest is history.
