Event photography from the 2024 Arable Awards at the Air Force Museum in Christchurch, celebrating excellence across the grain and seed industry. Images were shared with media, sponsors, and award winners.
The Arable Awards bring together a wide cross-section of the grain and seed industry — Federated Farmers, the Arable Research Foundation, wheat growers, and the Grain & Seed Trade Association — united in recognising the people and products that shape the sector.
The 2024 event, held at the Air Force Museum in Christchurch, carried a real sense of pride and momentum. As the official event photographer, my goal was to document the evening in a way that reflected both the professionalism of the industry and the warmth of the community behind it.
From award presentations and sponsor involvement to candid moments between growers and industry leaders, the atmosphere was one of genuine celebration.
The images from the night were delivered for use across media channels, sponsor communications, and for award winners to share in recognition of their achievements. Events like this showcase the strength and innovation within the arable sector, and it was a privilege to help tell that story visually.
