These locations are working office environments so we often have to get there and be shooting before the workforce arrive, early in the morning.
Ropata Medical Centre /
This is a good example of shooting in a busy environment but making it not look that way. These portraits of medical staff were shot between patients appointments and in tricky artificial lighting of mixed temperatures. All shot on one lens with available light in a tight timeframe!
Steiner School /
Candid shots taken for the Steiner School in Lower Hutt. Really nice vibe there and the children were all so well behaved!
Kindrik Partners /
These images were from a recent shoot for the technology law firm Kindrik Partners. Because its a working office in a city law firm lighting was out of the question so I was working with available light again.
Light Painting /
Last year I was asked to come into Xero to help them out with a light painting image they were trying to create for some internal photos of specific words. The guys were using light painting brushes made from fibre optics and I was just asked in to help with the technical problem they needed solving. I liked the effect of the paint brushes and yesterday received my own and quickly tested them out so here are the first test pics shot last night on the dining table at home!!
New work for Simmonds Stewart /
These were shot last week for technology law firm Simmonds Stewart who I regularly shoot for. These were mainly shot on the amazing Sigma 85mm art lens that is crazy sharp wide open, my new favourite lens! No lighting used here, just what was available!
The Treasury /
These images were shot last week in The Treasury for Workspace architects who I do a lot of work for. This was an interesting location to visit and shoot in and the guys at Workspace did another great job here.
Pass it On /
These images were shot recently for an upcoming book on Indian cuisine by Keryn Kalyan called ‘Pass It On.’ I look forward to seeing it in print.
Updates Coming! /
As a few people have been pointing out to me it’s about time I started to update the blog with some new work and personal shots. Starting off here are some shots I did a while back for Wakefields Lawyers and I will quickly update with some more recent work!
Simmonds Stewart /
This recent shoot for technology law firm Simmonds Stewart required as part of the brief quite a few portraits in a short time frame. One of the days was shooting in their Auckland offices and I flew up there without any lighting and so had to rely on window light. The following shots would have been a lot harder if I was not shooting on a mirrorless camera as getting critical focus hand held at F1.4 would of been too difficult in those conditions on a traditional DSLR.
Artisan Restaurant /
These are some of the images I shot last week for the Artisan Restaurant.....
BOLTON FOOD /
This was a really simple set up to get some nice clean food images for the Bolton Hotel recently
