Videos Are All the Rage!




Here's a fun way to view photos from your session: DVD slideshows. Set to music and animated, this is a much better way of showing off your photos to friends and family than static images - and it sure beats the old carousel projector!

I've just added a new page to the website, showcasing some of the videos my clients are requesting.  Have a look - click the button at the top right of this blog, or click HERE to go to the Southern Kiwi Photography website and select "Video" from the menu.

What's your favourite way of presenting your photos?

2 Photographers. 3 Dates. 2 Great Causes.



The weather's cooling off and leaves are looking pretty - what better time to hold a family portrait fundraiser?!  I'm teaming up with L&A Photography to help out two families; one dealing with ALS (also known as Motor Neuron Disease or Lou Gherig's Disease) and the other Leukemia.  In both cases it's the husband and father of the family who has been diagnosed with the condition.

We'll be holding 15-20 minute 'mini-sessions' over three days:

3 Nov
L&A Photography

9 Nov & 10 Nov
Southern Kiwi Photography

The mini-sessions cost $25 and include a free 8x10 print.  Additional prints may be purchased at the special rate of $10 each for sizes 8x10, 5x7 or 4x6.  And if you're looking for Christmas or Holiday cards, we've got you covered!  $35 for 25 cards (including envelopes) is your deal.

Lee Dawkins Agency, American Family Insurance is covering the cost of the free 8x10 print which means 100% of the $25 mini-session fee goes to the families.  All profits from the purchase of additional prints (e.g. after the cost of printing has been deducted) will also be donated.

Please help us to give some relief to these two families in our community.
We look forward to your support!

Note:  The mini-session fee is required to book and guarantee your session day and time.  Please arrive on time for your session; if you are late you will be asked to wait until the photographer has an opening in her schedule.  No-shows will forfeit their session fee and no refunds will be given.  Consider it a donation kindly given and gratefully accepted!
