My portraits for Colenso BBDO received two gold axis awards last week. The first for image and the second for billboard.

Earlier this year I was commissioned by TIME magazine to shoot Icebreaker CEO Jeremy Moon.
We travelled to the south Island of New Zealand to shoot at Muller station, Blenheim.
It was an amazing few days in a stunning location.
The station owners Steve and Mary Satterthwaite made us truly feel welcome during our stay.

The new Carter Observatory campaign was released this week. All talent were street cast and the brilliant CGI work was done with Engineered in Auckland.

Finally had approval to start a campaign with the excellent Chris Bleackley.
We started shooting last week and continue tomorrow.

On location a couple of weeks ago on a stunning beach north of Auckland, results soon.

Two day studio shoot including a number of images now complete.

Five years ago I worked on a project photographing people from different cultures living in New Zealand.
Recently I have managed to meet up with some of these people again, so have decided to photograph them again in 2010.
In 2005 I wanted the portraits to look like paintings and distinctively removed from reality, in 2010 I wanted the opposite.
