A celebration of a rediscovered passion.
Over the past few years I've had the pleasure of capturing some of Queenstown's hard working bands playing song after song, show after show whilst working at The Ballarat Trading Co. and Zephyr.
Since the turn of the new year I decided to cast my net that little further and get my work as far and wide as possible. This passion project helped get my work promoted across the region and across multiple platforms with the great help and support of Lakes Wee...
A celebration of a rediscovered passion.
Over the past few years I've had the pleasure of capturing some of Queenstown's hard working bands playing song after song, show after show whilst working at The Ballarat Trading Co. and Zephyr.
Since the turn of the new year I decided to cast my net that little further and get my work as far and wide as possible. This passion project helped get my work promoted across the region and across multiple platforms with the great help and support of Lakes Weekly Bulletin, Queenstown.com & The Source NZ to name a few.
With digital media consuming most my time I rarely printed any of my work but one day I did, and it flicked a switch in me that gave me the hunger and thirst to create more and to one day showcase my work for all my friends, peers, and others who are just generally interested in my work to attend and to have a bit of a party in the process!
About a year ago I suffered my first major bout of depression, a mental health dissorder that has affected my family also. I found it hard to deal with a lot of my issues but eventually saught some help, and dealt with them and moved on with my photography being a great outlet for my creative spark to focus on. On the night I will be raffling off some of my prints with proceeds going to www.mentalhealth.org.nz
I hope to see you there for a drink or two!
