So lockdown on, lock down off – Its been testing times over the last few months with cancelled booking, postponed bookings and rearranged bookings.

I picked up a new client straight after the first lockdown – Goodlife superfoods https://www.instagram.com/goodlifesuperfoodco/  They have got 2 sites, one in Wynyard quarter and the other in Fort Street.

I’ve done a couple of shoots for them these being some images from the first shoot in the studio. Ciaran the owner and a jolly nice fella if I may say, is obsessive on the details and the shoot involved much finessing by both myself and him and his two chefs that he bought along for the shoot. We spent many hours together in post polishing the images to his exacting standards.

The food? – Well I cant fault it really great, tasty and healthy food, prepared by a great team – I’ve tried pretty much most of the menu by now. I just wished I lived a little closer so I could get my lunch there every day!

Ive been busy with some other existing & new clients recently including –

International campaign for Fonterra / A very interesting Manuka honey shoot for Manukora a premium NZ Exporter / Villa Maria wines / And a brand new meal recipe kit about to launch in Auckland

Blog posts about these to follow!
