James Gilberd Photography Ltd / Photospace

James Gilberd Photography Ltd / Photospace Professional photographer since early 90s. 5 years tertiary study in photography. Running Photospace

I began shooting digitally in 1999, but have maintained the use of film and still operate a darkroom. I mostly photograph people, be it for passport photos, corporate portraits or documentary coverage of conferences. I also run a gallery for photography - the only specilised gallery in the Wellington region, and also run part-time photography courses & workshops. So I really live and breath the medium, which I find very fulfilling.

Last studio workshop I'll be running this year.

People often ask me what kind of photos I enjoy taking. Well TBH, doing something professionally tends to take the fun out of it. When I pick up a DSLR camera, it instantly feels like work. So I mainly take my personal photos on a fairly cheap cellphone. In 40 years of full-time photography, one gets pretty good at spotting a potential photo where most people wouldn't notice anything interesting. This was taken on Thursday morning while waiting outside a cafe on Courtenay Place for my coffee to be ready.
