Thank you for making our first LUMIX event a success!

We recently hosted our very first LUMIX Customer Event, and what a night it was!

A huge thank you to everyone who came along. Your questions, your curiosity and your love of photography and video made the evening what it was. It was great to meet so many of you, and we hope you left inspired.

A special thank you to our presenters:

Liam Brierly and Adam Patmore, for generously sharing their knowledge and real-world experience with the LUMIX system for both stills and video, and for being so open about why they chose LUMIX and what keeps them shooting with it.

Bruce from Panasonic, for bringing the latest LUMIX range and sharing his expertise and insights.

Sharing what you know and what you’ve learned in the field is what builds a creative community, and we’re grateful to all three of you.

This is just the beginning. We have more events planned at Photo Warehouse Hamilton, so keep an eye on our page for what’s coming next.

Thanks again and see you in store!

We are over the moon to share that Snapshot Photo Warehouse was recognised at this week’s annual Love The Centre C*D Business Awards evening.

We received two awards:

Highly Commended in the Shopping category
Category Winner for Established Business

Each award category is independently judged, which makes these results even more meaningful to us. I was proud to attend the evening representing the business.

A huge thank you to my amazing team, whose hard work and passion for photography make Snapshot Photo Warehouse what it is, and to our loyal customers. Your ongoing support is the reason we are here, and we are grateful for every one of you.

Thank you also to Love The Centre for celebrating and championing the businesses that make our city centre such a great place to shop, work and visit.

SHOUTOUT TO ADAM PATMORE!

Adam is a mechanic, a husband and dad, a classic-car cruiser and the organiser behind charity events like From the Streets. He’s also one seriously talented photographer, and a good friend of the Snapshot Photo Warehouse whānau.

He recently headed to China with the LUMIX S1II in hand, and the images he brought home are something else. Busy streets, bright colour, incredible light and everyday moments, all captured with the S1II.

Swipe through to see some of Adam’s favourites from the trip!

Want to hear the story behind the shots, and get hands-on with the latest LUMIX gear? Adam is presenting at our first-ever LUMIX Customer Event on 22 October alongside Liam Brierly, with Bruce from Panasonic showing off the latest LUMIX range.

Well done, Adam, we’re so proud of you!
