A promotional photoshoot for runner Emma Timmis who i’ve met through supporting the charity Speed Freaks here in Christchurch with pro bono photography services. We captured images in my studio, the Porthills as well as the Ngā Puna Wai Sports Hub, where she will be attempting the record.
Emma’s achievements as a runner include three times Guinness World Record for ‘Greatest Distance on a treadmill in 48 hours’, ‘Fastest Crossing of New Zealand on foot’ and the ‘Longest Journey by Elliptical cycle in a single country’.
On June 9th 2024 Emma is attempting to break her fourth Guinness World Record for the ’Greatest Distance Covered on a Treadmill in One Week’, and I’ll be documenting that for her as she fund raises for the Speed Freaks charity along the way. You can find out more about Emma’s challenge on her site here.
If you are a charity I may have the capacity to support you too so please email for details. Also posted here.

Paul is just the wildest, kindest, sensitive and naturally talented (..not to mention fun) guy and this was felt throughout the photo shoot we had.
His super flexible personality that can go with the flow and make gold from any situation, coupled with a great eye for his craft made some really great natural looking photos.
I also really enjoyed his honest and transparent nature. Really grateful for our photos.
Paul is an A1 photographer. Thanks heaps 🙏

I needed to update my profile photo as I had been using the same one for 10 years and have decided it was time to let go of the past. Paul understood the brief that I wanted to just look like myself! I love how my shots turned out and the process was quick and easy at the studio. I can’t recommend enough – great service from start to finish. Thank you very much Paul

We utilised Paul for a job with a very tight turnaround time. He was very accommodating, reasonably priced and we received great quality images. Paul was very easy to work with. I’d definitely engage him in future.

Pauls expertise was apparent during our shoot together. I was very pleased with the result! Paul gave great direction and guidance during our shoot, which promptly settled any nerves I might have had. The studio atmosphere was on point – Lana Del Ray was an excellent touch for background music. Such a pleasure working with Paul, I hope those reading this review get the opportunity to work with Paul themselves! A++

Paul made the whole process of taking a professional headshot for LinkedIn extremely easy. He has a natural ability to put people at ease and capture a high quality professional photo.
