Having entered MyDestination’s Biggest Baddest Bucket List competition, it’s got me thinking about things I learnt from my six week trip around Europe in June last year. I thought I’d compile a list of things I could tell other travellers (and myself alike if I win) to aid them in their adventures!
TripIt is the best tool for travelling! I can’t even put into… Read more »
It’s not very often I’ll enter competitions online. For one, time is very scarce, and the chances of winning are always so slim. But something jumped out at me when I heard that MyDestination was running a round-the-world travel competition, The Biggest Baddest Bucket List.

If it’s within 25km’s of my studio I don’t charge anything – It’s a given that… Read more »

Last month I had a photoshoot with the Wellington Racing Club to provide a set of photos to be used for the 2013 Wellington Cup branding. The branding was released over the weekend in The Dominion Post. Wellington Racing Club (aka Trentham) worked with the team at Web Boutique to put together their branding and ideas, and with the Wellington Racing Club’s direction I was able to get some amazing photos of their models
A combination of things prompted me to write this blog. Firstly with Xmas on our doorsteps, friends & family are already asking what I want for Christmas. Secondly my friend and lover of awesome stuff Ben wrote a blog on his website on what to get him for Christmas.

Last weekend I had four days away at the remote Lake Waikareiti (Near Napier, New Zealand). I took a squillion photos, which I’ll eventually get round to doing a proper blog about. But till then, here’s this stunning view of the ISS orbiting earth above the lake. The photo itself is a 25″ second exposure, so you can start to picture how fast it travels. And, here’s one of my father & I playing with the… Read more »
