Outdoor Photography & Reels Packages

Well, it’s a social media world at the moment!

So let’s better get some professional imagery that catches people’s eyes, and gets them excited to get outdoors (and away from their phones), accompanied by your brand.

Based in Tauranga, I’m a professional outdoor photographer shooting photos and reels for outdoor gear brands, anything camping & hiking related (especially off the beaten track), outdoor tourism operators and outdoor lifestyle brands across New Zealand.

I come to you - on-location packages for tourism operators, venues and experiences, from $500 + GST

Your product comes with me - trip content packages for gear, food and outdoor brands, from $650 + GST

How the packages work:

  • What’s flexible: shot list, number of photos and reels, location, dates, usage.

  • What drives the final price: time on location, how hard the spot is to reach, usage needs (e.g. paid ads).

  • Everything in writing: you’ll get a clear written quote, contract and brief before any deposit, so no surprises!

Tell me what you need and I’ll shape a package around it.

Contact me to discuss your ON LOCATION project!

Your product comes with me on a real multi-day outdoor trip - authentic in-use content from remote NZ locations, no travel or location costs for you!

Why it’s priced this way

  • Trail Kit: your product joins a trip I’m already doing, so you only pay for the shots - not the trip.

  • Hero Product: a full shoot day somewhere you’d normally need a helicopter to reach - I hike in instead, so you get it for my standard day rate, with editing included.

  • Brand Story: an overnight on location (sunset, night and sunrise) for the price of a single shoot day plus editing.

  • Extra days: multi-day access (e.g. a hut trip or traverse) is +$1,000 + GST per day.

  • No travel, accommodation or location costs - I’m already out there.

How trip packages work

  • Limited slots: 1-2 brands per product category per trip

  • Product supplied by the brand, at least 2 weeks before departure

  • 3-5 must-have shots agreed before the trip

  • Shot types are guaranteed - specific locations depend on weather and conditions

  • Delivery within 10 working days of returning

  • 50% deposit secures your slot

Usage

  • Included: organic social media and your website, NZ, 12 months

  • Paid advertising: +30-50%

  • Retail, catalogue, print, global or perpetual use: quoted separately
