I spent a half day filming and photographing AgCon, an owner-operated stump grinding and mulching business working across Southland and Otago. Owner Brent Burgess wanted his marketing to sell the service he provides and the what the finished job can look like. We delivered a 45-second service overview promo, 2 social media cutdowns (15 and 30 seconds), as well as 50 edited images.
The Snow League World Challenge brought Shaun White’s halfpipe league to Cardrona, New Zealand, in September 2026. I photographed it independently on a media pass. To shoot halfpipe, I think you need to get low so riders sit against the sky, use 1/1000 or faster with continuous autofocus, add exposure compensation for the snow, and learn each rider’s style and trick set before they drop in.
In August 2026 I ran The Content Engine, a two-session smartphone content workshop series, in partnership with the Queenstown Business Chamber and Noel Leeming. Local business owners and their teams learned to shoot, edit and plan their own content on the phones they already own, and left with the confidence to do it all themselves.
We talk through what you need, where the images will run and what it should cost.
You get a written quote. A 25% deposit holds your date, then we plan the shoot together.
Finished content delivered in roughly two weeks. Need it fast? Rush selects can arrive in 1 to 3 business days depending on the project.
Keen to chat in person? Pick a time that suits you. We’ll work out what the project needs and what it should cost. We can do a virtual call or phone call, whatever is best!
