PHOTOGRAPHY

Freelance photographer currently working with a Canon 60D for still and moving image with varying lenses.  Prefer working with my Bronica medium format stills camera and 120 film, for the finish.

 

I began my journey into photography in 1997 after training at Whitecliffe College of Arts & Design.  I went on to capture and document the early New Zealand Graffiti scene on 35mm film, moved to DSL like everyone else and started working within the New Zealand music scene. I have well over 18 years of photographs and have made many great friends in the process.  I am currently organizing my archive collection into a manageable and accessible format. Watch this space!

​

I'm experienced in product liaison, positive relationships and networking, working to tight deadlines and fast turnarounds, maintaining and managing all photography equipment, art director and assistant editing, lighting set up and location scouting, talent coordinator and liaison plus I'm an all round good guy!

 

No job to big or to small . One prerequisite is it has to inspire.
