Here's a clip for Kim Dotcom (now seems to like DotCoDotNZ) I filmed with the talented people at PleasureKraft. Filmed on location at R&V festival - Gisborne, NZ. Was as a fun way to start 2014.
Enjoy.
Exhibition @ Silo Park, Auckland 1 - 26 Feb 2014
Dark cloud / white light is coming to Auckland city this summer. It's really exciting to bring the exhibition to an amazing new location down on the waterfront. About 80,000 people saw the show in Wellington which was a pretty incredible turnout. This time we're going to make the show super cinematic with new Ultra HD screens thanks to my new exhibition partner Samsung. (I hope you can keep a secret... shhh.. they're giving me the worlds largest 4K resolution screen for the show) for more info check out the facebook page here >>>

Beautiful evening at St Kevins Arcade for PechaKucha AKL 38. The talented Paul Petch captured this shot of my talk on the Aurora. Good times with some great speakers. Hopefully they'll have me back for another one!
Beneath the surface
I've been gathering my creative thoughts lately..
It's even been a week or so since I picked up the camera. Being creative is a very dynamic job, and I enjoy all parts, there's a great synergy between the action of taking a photograph out in the field then coming back to process it. I enjoy both parts of the development process immensely, going out to find imagery is really exciting. It's an adventure & I get to visit some incredible places.
I also love the editing process. This is where I get to play around and paint with the images. re-create the feeling of a place as it was experienced. I also get to listen to great music and pod casts.
Whilst listening to some really inspiring stories today a thought came to mind.
The loudest arguments happen in your own head and your greatest opponent is indeed yourself. It's quite common to blame external pressures for stopping our own progress towards the things we're most passionate about, but the truth is we're probably just scared of how awesome we can actually be.
Dig your nails in and scratch beneath the surface a little...
+ Pecha Kucha 28th Nov +
I'm speaking at Pecha Kucha Auckland on Thursday 28th..
what is Pecha Kucha you ask?
It's a presentation style in which I get to talk about 20 slides for 20 seconds each (about 7mins total) If you're in the Auckland region come along, there's sure to be some incredible speakers!
I'll be talking about my adventures chasing the Aurora Australis, which is something I'm incredibly passionate about!!

Silence is bliss.. Music is better
Helped out with the visuals on my friends show last weekend and it was pretty incredible. Seeing a few of my time-lapse sequences up on the big screen was Amazing. Rhian's show featured a whole host talented New Zealand musicians as well as Orchestra Wellington. Live at the Opera house. Hoping this show gets the opportunity to travel!
Keen to explore this more..
