A little taste of the 80s with That 80s Band - Invercargill 🎸📸

Got to capture some promo shots for the band, and these guys know how to bring the retro vibes.

Always good to get out and support the local music scene. 🤘

Out in Otatara with Grier Goodall and her guitar 🎸📸

Grier is a very talented young country music singer and Gold Guitar winner, and we headed out for a promo shoot to get some new photos of her doing her thing.

Always love getting to work with local talent and helping capture what they do.

An absolute hoot I had a few weeks ago! Check out their event, linked in the caption 🥳

We had a really fun photo shoot with Captured By Bayley a few weeks ago. We thought we'd start sharing some of the cool individual shots she took.
When Bayley asked for period correct props for the session she asked if we knew anyone who had a keytar. Of course, we do. Introducing our man Scott on keys and vocals, aka Scotty Fast Fingers. The musical star with the blazing keytar!
Come and hear him for yourself at our show on November 14.

Southern Worm Farms was such a cool project for my husband and I, the faces behind M Digital Studio, to work on.

The website and photography tied in really nicely with what we’re both about through Captured By Bayley and M Digital Studio. Supporting local businesses, looking at more sustainable ways of doing things, and finding ways to make a positive impact on our environment.

It was awesome being able to bring both of our skill sets together and create something that actually has a purpose behind it.

Anyway, look at us go. Website? ✔️ Photos? ✔️ Worms? ✔️ Sustainability? ✔️

We’re basically unstoppable. 😂🪱🌱

Make sure you give Southern Worm Farms a follow too and check out all the amazing work they’re doing right here in our local community when it comes to sustainability! 🌱

What an incredible night to wrap up Guitar Legends at RIFF - Live Music Venue ! The Southland Musicians Club absolutely delivered and I had a blast capturing every moment. What a night!

If any of these legends are yours, go ahead and tag yourself in the photos!

And a friendly reminder... if you save and crop my watermark, next time I'm getting that camera right up your nose. You've been warned. 📸😂

Still thinking about how good Shapeshifter was at Civic Theatre 🔥

The whole place was buzzing from the second they walked on stage. So many cool moments to capture, crazy lighting, huge crowd energy, and honestly just such a fun night to be part of.

Super grateful I got to photograph this one - here are some of my favourite shots 📸

at the Civic Theatre tonight was honestly such a wild night 🔥

The crowd went hard, the whole place was buzzing, and getting to see some of it from backstage made it even cooler. Too many good moments not to throw together a reel from the night.

Massive energy from start to finish and such a cool one to shoot 🎶

And to the band - hope you enjoy your pizza 🍕😂

The Te Whare family 🤍

This session was one of those “trust the process” moments. We shifted times, watched the weather like hawks, and hoped the beach would give us a break… and it did.

Soft, neutral tones, a wide open coastline, and a stunning whānau who made it all feel effortless. Sometimes the best shoots are the ones you almost have to fight for.

Beach family photography sessions like this are always worth the wait.

P.S. Anyone who wants to take some photos out here, pack bug spray...

Yes, this one’s a little delayed. My back had other ideas, and over the long weekend my husband and I got stuck into home renos… six trips to Mitre 10 later, here we are.

But, finally, here are some of my favourite moments from Blindspott on the night. Absolute power on stage, tight as ever, and a crowd that gave it right back.

More to come, but these are the ones that stuck with me first.
