Last week I had a cool shoot with some friends of mine who wanted to get a nice Family Portrait to hang on their wall. Family is a loose term but they all do live together… Whilst they were waiting for me to turn up at their house, they got a little bored and decided...
Having been a musician and involved in theatre myself over the years, I know how hard it can be to get good quality promotional photos at a decent price. You’re a struggling artist but you still need something to autograph for those flocking fans, which is why there’s this super sweat deal: 1hr photo shoot...
Lately I’ve had the great pleasure to work with the guys and girls from Fuse Productions, a Wellington based circus and physical theatre company.
