‘Architecture is the art of how to waste space’
A good photograph should capture the essence of a space. Just as everything in life is connected, so is architecture part of a bigger picture: From the way a building connects to its environment to the relationship with its occupants. But most importantly, architectural photography provides an emotional anchor. It allows a way to experience, rather than just observe.
Simple Image Packages
Just choose a number of images. Drone photography is already included.
Comprehensive Licence
Licensing is just as easy and covers the needs of architects, designers, builders and suppliers. Forever.
Drone Photography
Aerial images highlight the relationship between architecture and environment.

Sounds good?
Wait, there’s more
Over the last few years my passion for photography has allowed me to capture people’s love for each other, scale mountains, and share the joy photography brings to my life in workshops. It has been a truly amazing ride. Working in a variety of areas allows me to constantly meet new people, overcome challenges, and, hopefully, become a better photographer.
Nice people & good stuff
Lightforge would be nothing without a great community. Over the last few years I had the pleasure of working with a wide range of clients, from incredibly gifted local designers to big names like Jasmax, Warren & Mahoney, Ignite and the Ministry of Justice.
In the editorial realm, my work has featured in publications like HOUSES, Interior, Architecture NZ, Trends Ideas, New Zealand Geographic, AA Directions, Wilderness and many others. A lot of my projects are submitted to the New Zealand Institute of Architects and Architectural Designers of New Zealand Awards every year. See the big winners here.
A few years ago I won the New Zealand Geographic Landscape Photographer of the Year award. Some of my work is sold at One Shot, NZ’s leading stock library.
I call myself lucky to be supported by my amazing partners at Fujifilm, Aarn Packs and MSR. Thanks to their amazing products I can fully focus on capturing compelling visual stories, no matter how wild the environment. See my blog for more.
