OPSM ad Campaign in Napier, New Zealand

I recently wrote a post about an ad campaign that I shot for the eyewear retailer OPSM in Busselton, Western Australia with Saatchi & Saatchi. The images below are just a few of the shots that I did for the brand to tell some of the stories of the everyday people in Napier, New Zealand. I love New Zealand- aside from having incredibly beautiful landscapes the people there are quite beautiful and agreeable in their own right.

OPSM Ad Campaign in Australia and New Zealand

I recently spent several weeks traveling and working with Saatchi & Saatchi on a new ad campaign for the eye wear retailer OPSM. The job was a really exciting project for me to be a part of because it picked two small towns- Busselton, Western Australia and Napier, New Zealand- and found people of all ages and walks of life who use and need their product, eye glasses.

The Monocle Guide to Better Living

The Monocle Magazine has just come out with a hefty new book titled, “The Monocle Guide to Better Living” and I have a two page spread inside featuring a shoot about swimming in Sydney I did for them last year. It’s a beautiful book and it’s great to have my images alongside other photographers and stories from around the world.

Chicago Magazine: 40 Reasons to Love Chicago

This month Chicago Magazine is celebrating their 40th year and the feature of the magazine is entitled “40 Reasons to Love Chicago.” I was asked to shoot the images for “Number 26: Because, in the country’s third-largest city, we maintain beehives and chicken coops.” While the trendiness of urban beekeeping and urban chicken coops has been growing, it’s always been legal here in Chicago there are a lot of resources for city dwellers to learn how to do it. Luckily I had the chance to taste the honey and was able to experience the profound difference in the tastes between hives on top of a downtown rooftop (a strong taste of spicy cinnamon) to hives 40 blocks away in a backyard on the South Side (a fantastic, almost mentholated, minty lemon which was the best honey I’ve ever had.) I love these jobs.
