The Canon 7D – First impressions and a 7D Kaikoura wedding
I took delivery of a 7D early last week, the timing was perfect as my 1DsMKII went off to the Canon workshops for it’s second shutter replacement, the current one lasting not very long! That’s another story and we won’t even go there at the moment. I had a keen interest in the 7D as [...]

It felt like spring this weekend though, with a beautiful couple, a great looking bridal party, bright spring colours and some sunshine, we had all the elements of a very super spring day. Thanks for sharing the fun [...]
Kaikoura Real Estate photography
There is an interesting mix of architecture in Kaikoura. I get to sample the diversity when I photograph properties for a couple of the astute real estate agents in town. There is everything from cutting edge architectural masterpieces to contemporary seaside baches to 1950s designs from the state house era. One thing that makes Kaikoura [...]
iDataBack – an iPod app road test
With the release of OS Version 3.0 the iPod Touch and iPhone now have a ton of useful apps. An iPod is almost an essential tool for contacts, calendars, to do lists, time logging, the odd game and music too! There are some great photography specific apps also and I noticed a new release called [...]

I haven’t been totally idle lately…
Summer on the beach – Not! I realise it’s been a bit quiet here lately but I assure you I’ve been doing productive things. It’s been hot and dry here all summer but I haven’t been at the beach too much. Website building asphoto.co.nz has been a shambles for a while as I’ve been tinkering [...]

A Chilly winter wedding
The guys live in Auckland and came to our town to enjoy our beautiful scenery and balmy winter days while celebrating their wedding with family and friends. Well that didn’t quite happen, we woke up to snow showers and sub Antarctic wind chill. It didn’t dampen spirits one bit, these guys were here to enjoy themselves and [...]
Winter’s here
We’re in the depths of winter, there’s snow on every peak in sight, the ocean is angry after a big storm and the sky is grey and bleak. The cold southerly wind doesn’t bother going around you but chills you to the bone. A walk around the Kaikoura peninsula is spectacular …. got to love [...]
Pretty damned good lifestyle
I guess it’s why we live here really. Its all about lifestyle, it has to be good when the ocean sings a lullaby that makes you sleep at night and it can’t be all bad when you are one of the first to see the sun on a new day. Although, I have to admit, [...]
Crikey – Suddenly it’s Summer
