Overdue Update!!
When you’re busy with work it is easy to forget to update your folio or blog and so I’m just putting these pictures up here as a bit of a refresh and give the site a little TLC!!
The work shown here has all been shot since the last post and it starts with a picture of the well known architect Fritz Eisenhofer at Peka Peka beach and some interior shots of his lovely guest house.
Recent Work
I have been really busy here recently with lots of commercial photography, heaps of real estate photography and a trip to Europe as well so haven’t had much time to update the blog! Anyway, it is about time I stuck some new pictures up here to show something new so the following are a very tiny sample of some of the real estate photography I have taken since I last put a post up on here. It also includes a few aerial shots that I have taken recently.
Aerial Photography
Due to the fact that I get many requests for aerial shots I decided to go ahead and invest in a multi rotor that would carry my camera. Having spent many months looking into this prior to going ahead with it I decided the quality of the pictures from the Gopro cameras were just not good enough and went for a machine that could carry a much bigger payload. I now have a machine capable of lifting either my 20 megapixel camera or 36 megapixel full frame camera and staying in the air for about 18 minutes per set of batteries.
If you are a photographer looking into getting a similar machine for aerial photography I would highly recommend getting in contact with Julian Avisenis (click here) who built this for me as he was by far the most knowledgeable person on the subject I have yet met, he even helped advise what sort of equipment I should purchase to learn to fly on first!
Below are a few examples taken with the multi rotor, some of which just wouldn’t be possible any other way for the same cost.
New Zealand 100% Pure
The Facebook page of Tourism New Zealand has featured my landscape photography on ‘Through the lens Thursday.’ Its a great page that over a million people have liked and if you want to find out anything about traveling around the country and what’s worth a visit take a look. The feature with my pictures in can be found here and if you want to go to the rest of their page click here.
Royal New Zealand Air Force
Ok, so it’s not really interiors, real estate or any kind of property shoot but I thought I’d share these pictures I took in December for the Royal New Zealand Air Force. I was commissioned to do this shoot by Saatchi & Saatchi Wellington for an ad campaign that is currently running on bus back and sides, billboards and various other outdoor media.
Below are the three campaign shots and an additional shot the crew asked me to take for fun!
Bolton Hotel
I was recently contacted by the five star Bolton Hotel to help them update their photography for their website. Working with the very friendly Amy and Shelley from the Bolton Hotel and the brilliant stylist and home stager Tracey Masters from Out To Impress we had a very productive day. Below are a few images from the shoot.
Sunday Star Times Cover
Last year saw me start working with the Eastbourne agent Sinead Diederich and the first property we worked on together was in Days Bay. Sinead sent the images into The Dominion Post and they made it their front page feature in The Sunday Star Times property paper! Not bad for our first outing together.
360 VR
If you have a large space that you want to show off in a different way then take a look here. This will display an interactive 360 that will play on your computer, iphone, ipad or tablet etc. Just let it auto rotate or use your mouse / finger to rotate around the image to where you want to see. Pretty cool hey!
Recent Work
Thought I should stick a bit of my most recent work on here as I haven’t updated the blog with anything new for a while and wanted to let you all see that I’m still producing nice real estate photography!
Debs Metson
I am pleased to say that I have started working with the lovely Debs Metson at Bayleys. She is a great agent and I look forward to working with her in the future.
