7 CHAIRS is the creative brainchild of Sydney based commercial photographer Ben Halcomb. With nearly 30 years experience, Ben is a multi award-winning photographer who currently runs Nikon Australia’s highly successful educational arm Nikon School. Having shot over 400 weddings in his career, it is fair to say that Ben loves helping couples to capture their special day in a way that brings their i

ndividual spirit – and love - to life. This passion to help others is also evident when you take part in one of 7 CHAIRS’ Workshops designed to help anyone from a new starter to a seasoned photographer. As an educator, Ben is both approachable and patient, with a wide knowledge of cameras (from film to digital). Whilst preferring to work with Nikon cameras himself, Ben hasn’t come across a camera yet that he can’t help someone use better! When asked of which image he is most proud Ben said ‘ The photograph of my son (then aged 18 months) & grandfather walking together hand in hand – each with their own walking stick. It won Gold at the 2000 APPA’s (Australian Professional Photography Awards) but that isn’t the reason....it is because a few months later my grandfather passed away and for me this image will forever hold a special place in my heart’.

Sunday mornings don't get much better than this.

I headed out to the Wollondilly Shire Cars & Coffee meet with the team from 7chairs to capture some of the incredible cars and the great atmosphere that these events are known for.

As a bonus, my little 1986 Toyota Corolla Twin Cam was there too and even came home with a trophy, which made the morning even more memorable.

Here's a look at some of the highlights from a fantastic event.

Thanks to everyone who brought their cars along and helped make it such a great morning.

Cheers Ben.

Part 2 is here…

You all wanted to know what Ben was hiding in the bag.

Turns out the new Nikon ZR wasn’t the only thing that mysteriously found its way home after the EOFY sales. There may have been another little purchase quietly making its way under the radar too… right up until now. 👀

Safe to say the credit card statement probably wrapped up the story before this video did.

Thinking your business could use content that’s a little more memorable than another talking head video?

Some of you saw the photo exposing Ben buying this at the shops during the EOFY sales. Told him he should do an unboxing video for it. What he didn't count on was Sharne walking in halfway through filming.

Turns out "quick unboxing for the socials" and "explaining to your wife why there's a new camera on the bench" are two very different conversations.

Worth it though Ben? Worth it.

Part 2 coming soon. Tell us if you've ever been busted buying gear you didn't need.

at Flemington marked a huge milestone last year, celebrating its 50th anniversary on September 12.

Since opening in 1975, the markets have been the beating heart of fresh produce in NSW. The celebration honoured the founding tenants; the “Class of ’75” many of whom are still trading today. Their stories tell the history and spirit behind Australia’s largest wholesale produce hub.

It was one of our favourite events to photograph in 2025. Over nearly eight years, the 7Chairs team has spent plenty of time at Sydney Markets, building close relationships with the friendly vendors and their families.

Being there to capture the day’s special recognition of their hard work and dedication to feeding NSW was truly meaningful. We love working with the markets community and can’t wait for more events to come.

If your organisation has an event that celebrates milestones or the people behind your business, we’d love to help you capture those stories.

Back in December, the team at The Royce in Penrith invited us along to photograph their annual Christmas celebration.

It was a joy to capture residents spending time with their families, sharing laughs, hugs and all the little moments that make the festive season feel special. Events like this are about connection and community, and it was clear how much this celebration meant to everyone involved.

We’re grateful to The Royce for trusting us to document such an important day. Photographs from events like these become more than just images, they’re a way to remember moments, celebrate community and share the culture of an organisation long after the decorations come down.

If your business or organisation is planning an event this year, professional photography is one of the best ways to make sure those moments are remembered and can be shared well beyond the day itself.

Held by the , the annual auction brings growers, wholesalers and retailers together to bid on the season’s first premium cherries, raising vital funds for . in 2025 a record breaking auction raised an incredible $260,000, helping fund free flights and ground transport for seriously ill children and their families travelling from regional NSW and QLD for medical care.

What makes this event so special isn’t just the energy in the room or the excitement of the bidding, it’s hearing the stories from the families whose lives are directly impacted by the funds raised. Those moments stop you in your tracks and remind you exactly why this work matters.

We’re incredibly thankful to be trusted to document these moments, preserving not just the event itself but the emotion, connection and impact behind it. Capturing events like this gives organisations powerful content to share their story long after the night is over, and a meaningful record of the difference they’re making.

If your organisation is hosting an event this year, we’d love to help you capture it properly and turn it into something that lasts.

We were proud to be the official photographers on site at for 2025's Cherry Selection event, kicking off the lead up to the Cherry Ball.

The morning was all about tasting and selecting boxes of premium cherries that will be auctioned on the night, bringing together quality produce, great people and a strong sense of community. It was great to see get things started alongside Josh Reynolds and Ava Cannon.

Congratulations to Hugh Maloy from , whose cherry box took out top honours at last year’s Cherry Selection.

The work Little Wings does in providing free professional flight and ground transport for seriously ill children and their families is truly inspiring, and events like the Cherry Ball play a huge role in supporting that mission.

From a business point of view, events like this are worth documenting properly. They become valuable marketing assets, a way to showcase partnerships, tell your story and create content that lasts well beyond the day.

Thanks to everyone involved for having us along. If you’re planning an event this year and want it captured professionally, we’d love to help.
