Recent events
Launch nights, festivals, awards dinners and everything in between. Here are a few favourites from recent jobs.
Of course, anyone can show off their best dozen shots. So here's two galleries: images that we shot alongside the activation video shown here, and a complete gallery from a single event, exactly as the client received it.

Our packages
Choose photo, video or both, then pick how long you need us. All prices are in NZD and exclude GST.
Tap a package to select it. Event longer than 4 hours but not a full day? Tell us in the notes. Not sure yet? Just send your date and we'll help you choose.
We reply same day, usually within the hour, and hold your date for 48 hours.
Why people book us
We make it easy
We meet you at the start and get the brief, then we get to work. There are no check-ins and no hovering around you asking where to be. You've got an event to run.
Heaps of photos
A lot of event photographers hand over 40–80 images. Our smallest package starts at 100, and a full day gets you 400+. That means more moments, more angles, and plenty to keep your socials going for months.
Fast turnaround
Your photos are back in 3 days. If you need them sooner, priority turnaround gets them to you in 24 hours, or same day.
Minimal interruptions
Clients often tell us afterwards they barely noticed us, and they mean it as a compliment. We also know when to step in. We'll round people up for group shots, grab the sponsor photo, and chat to guests so they relax in front of the camera.
Transparent pricing
There's no "contact us for pricing" dance. You'll know the number before you've even said hello.
The boring stuff's sorted
Every booking comes with a clear contract and we bring backup gear on every shoot. It's not exciting, but it means nothing goes wrong on the day.
Featured project
A royal visit, 4 days, 9 events
The Duke of Edinburgh's Award brought us on to cover Prince Edward's visit to New Zealand. We travelled the country with the team for 4 days and shot 9 events back to back. Some of the work was then featured by the Royal Family on their official Instagram.
Same approach as every other job: a quick brief, then we got on with it. No babysitting required, even with royalty in the room.

Questions we get a lot
-
Nope. Most clients say they barely noticed us. We stay out of the speeches and the sightlines, and we don't need managing.
-
Absolutely. Candid is our default, but we'll happily round people up for team photos, sponsor shots or anything on your list.
-
That's normal for us. Dim bars, stage lighting and smoke machines are all fine. If you've got a media wall, our lighting add-on makes those shots pop.
-
Photos come back within 3 days. Video within 7 days. Priority turnaround gets them to you quicker, same day if required. Ask and we’ll quote it.
-
We bring backup cameras, lenses, batteries and cards to every shoot, so a dead battery or a dropped lens doesn’t become your problem.
-
A 50% deposit locks in your date, and the balance is due before we release your files. If your event is less than 7 days away, it's paid in full upfront. For first-time clients spending over $4,000, we split it into three payments (50/25/25), and your quote shows the dates.
-
No, all prices exclude GST.
-
Yep. Weekends are +20% and public holidays +50%. Starting before 7am or finishing after 10pm adds $300.
-
Anywhere within 30 minutes of the Auckland CBD is covered. Further out starts from $150, and we’ll confirm it in your quote. We travel NZ-wide.
-
Yes. Teasers, speaker promos or product content made ahead of the day are quoted as a brand project, so tell us what you have in mind.
-
Yes. We covered 9 events over 4 days across Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch for a royal visit. Send us the schedule and we’ll quote it.
