  • As part of our partnership with @truestock, we will be showcasing some of their talented contributors from across Aotearoa. Truestock works with over 100 talented photographers & videographers creating fresh new authentic Aotearoa stock content (and also create custom photoshoots). Laura Evans – Northland Photography Based in Kerikeri in the Bay of Islands, Laura is an experienced lifestyle, family and portrait photographer with over 15 years’ experience and a degree from Whitecliffe College. Her knack for capturing the ‘daily magic is evident throughout her large Truestock portfolio. Michael Farr Michael operates his photography and videography company from his base in the Hawkes Bay. He has a serious passion for the industry, years in the game, and a distinct way of capturing gorgeous light and rich colour throughout his landscapes and portraits alike. Oscar Hetherington Oscar is a young and passionate New Zealand photographer with a love for telling stories of people, places and ideas. We love seeing his new images as they come in with an exciting mix of perspectives and angles that capture the New Zealand lifestyle from extreme sports through, rural living and active outdoor activities.
