INTERVIEW

Brent Purcell

Long Exposure in Aotearoa

When did you develop your interest in photography?

I’ve always owned a camera but about four years ago I

purchased a dslr and discovered long exposure.

What is it that you find so addicting with photography?

Getting outside witnessing and capturing beautiful sunrises

and sunsets in amazing locations. You know when you have

the shot the of the day but always you're striving for better

light and better conditions.

Could you describe the creative process you work through

in capturing an image?

Always looking for leading lines, and composing a shot with

foreground, middle ground and background.

Any top tips for aspiring landscape photographers?

Do your homework. Use an app like Photopills to know

where you need to be in relation to the sun, moon or stars

and when. Shoot wide and think through your composition.

Fill the frame. Shoot, shoot and shoot some more. You learn

something every time. Have fun!

What’s the best nature buzz you’ve experienced while out and about shooting images?

Shooting the Milky Way over Nugget Point when the Aurora Australis made an appearance.

The South Island pretty much your second home. If you could pop a wee cabin down at one of the spots

you’ve visited (With DOC permission of course) so you could wake up to the view on a regular basis where

would it be & why?

ilod ond t ee nin te ot dti ete inedile eetion ite e nd e

numbers of fantastic waterfalls.

If you were to pen a quick “locals guide” to Hamilton what

would be your tips to visitors for the following;

Great place to Stay?

Because I live here I don't stay elsewhere in the area but it has

a great variety of accommodation from backpackers to 5 star.

Best Eats?

Madam Woo, Victoria Street Bistro, Hydro Cafe.

Photographic hot spots to visit?

Raglan, Waitomo Glow Worm Caves, Hamilton Lake,

Hamilton Gardens, Waikato River, Hobbiton.

Local specialities?

The surf at Raglan and the Zealong Tea Estate.

INTERVIEW

Christina Tan

Traveling in Style

When did you decide to pursue photography as a career,

and what was it about photography that inspired that

choice?

I started to do this full time in 2017. I never thought it’s going

to be a career. It was a hobby, both travel and photography

and due to Instagram eventually it lead into a profession due

to high demand from brands/ tourism board who saw my

work.

What or who inspires you when developing ideas for a

client and their photo shoot?

I am very much inspired by myself actually. What I would like

to do on a holiday. What would be my preference. What

would I love to see. What I am actually thinking right on the

spot. What was my imagination prior to the trip.

Is there any WOW moment of a location you’ve photographed

that stands out above all others?

Yes, it was The Gate at Bohemian Switzerland, Czech Republic.

The view was unbelievably breathtaking but I did not have a

filte nd tiod it e ee o te lon ie eete

less the memories remain.

What’s your favourite thing about travel ? / least favourite

thing about travel?

Fave, The excitement of planning the trip and the feeling of

going somewhere new. Least fave, the sad feeling when the

trip has come to an end.

As a seasoned luxury travel photographer do you have any advice for aspiring travel photographers?

First of all you need learn basic camera operation. Secondly you need to travel to create portfolio. Third

you need to establish networking be it on social media or in real life. Fourth you need to stay humble

and improve your skills time after time.

Tim McKenna

Ocean Devotion

No doubt a tough choice, but is there any particular

photographic experience you’ve had that just blew you away

in the moment with some awesome images the end result ?

A few years ago in Moorea French Polynesia, we were lucky to

meet a huge humpback whale and her calf, who both were

very playful, water clarity was unreal…. Some of the images I

got from that encounter are still some of my best portfolio shots.

Also always winners are any big wave session in Teahupoo :)

With a super impressive range of photographic equipment

to capture the diverse subjects you shoot, is their any

particular piece of kit that’s your go to, you know a trusty

workhorse ?

The Nikon D5 camera still the fastest and most sturdy of my

cameras.

In reading an interview Bali Belly did with Captain Kenny,

Kenny mentions you as one of the guys that stood up and

got stuck in helping out massively by tending to the injured

in what was a severe boating accident. Have you had any

other travel experiences more full on than that ? Any

reections on that experience?

You could hardly have a more radical experience than that

Enzo Romano

Maestro in luce

When did you decide to make photography your career?

After winning a battle against a cancer I have thought that as

life can be taken unexpectedly, it is best to live our life to the

fullest and follow our dreams/ passions and this what

motivated me to become a photographer full time.

What is it that you most enjoy about photography?

I like to express my world and my feelings through images.

Since I first started following you on Instagram two things

are obvious through your photography. The first your love

of Italy and secondly that not only are you constantly

exploring Italy but also exploring new artistic directions with

your photography and editing. So two questions there I guess ;

The st do you have a favourite place to travel to shoot

in Italy ?

Yes, Venice

The nd What is your current focus with regard to the

artistic direction of your photography ?

I would like to specialise in portrait photography.

efore going on a photo shoot what are the type of things

you do in preparation to make for a smoother days shooting ?

Take a relaxing walk in the middle of nature.

uando hai deciso di fare della fotografia la tua carriera?

Dopo aver vinto una battaglia contro un cancro, ho pensato che

siccome la vita può essere portata via inaspettatamente, è meglio

vivere la nostra vita al massimo e seguire i nostri sogni / passione

e questo che mi ha spinto a diventare fotografo a tempo pieno.

Che cosa ti piace di pi della fotografia?

Mi piace esprimere il mio mondo e i miei sentimenti attraverso le

immagini.

Da quando ho iniziato a seguirti su Instagram due cose sono

evidenti attraverso la tua fotografia. Il primo il tuo amore per

lItalia e in secondo luogo che non solo stai costantemente

esplorando lItalia ma anche esplorando nuove direzioni

artistiche con la tua fotografia e il tuo editing. Ti voglio fare

quindi due domande;

La prima hai un posto preferito dove ti piace viaggiare scattare

foto in Italia?

Si, Venezia

INTERVIEW

Saúl Aguilar

Photographic Panache

When did you first get bitten by the photobug and how

long after this before you decided to make it your career?

Photography has always been my passion but it was when I

moved to Paris that the passion increased. 3 years after I

arrive to Paris I decided to make photography my career (2012)

When on a travel assignment any special tricks you use to

plan divide up your working day to get the most out of it?

Yes, the 1st thing I do is to check on internet the existing

photos of the place during sunset and sunrise to get an idea

of what I can get. I never copy other photographers but I use

their images as inspiration. The next thing I do is to check the

weather. Based on that I decide in which day I’ll take photos

during sunrise and with days during sunset and the locations.

Do you have a favourite season to photograph ? If so what

is it that you most like about the season and what it brings

to an image.

Yes, my favorite season is spring. This is because all the

colors come back, there is more light and the people look

happier.

What’s the main focus of your photography for ? Any new directions that you’re looking to take your work?

i ye old lie to o o telin nd nte ine d lie to eloe ne ontie

ou have some iconic images where you bring a real sense of romance beauty to a scene that may be

predominately architectural. What are the main elements you look to bring together to create these ext

Level images?

There are 3 important things I always have in mind in order to make a “great” photo:

1. Composition: putting the elements in order to make my photo more attractive.

2. Light: I shoot during magic hour or when is the best for the photo I’m looking for.

3. Edition: enhancing the colors and contrast of my images.

If you were to pen a quick “locals guide” to Paris what would be

your tips to visitors for the following;

Great place to Stay?

My favorite place to stay in Paris is Plaza Athenee. It’s a 5 star hotel

it etil ie o te ity nd te iel oe

It’s located in the luxury couture area and just a few blocks away

from Champs Elysées Avenue. (Image on right shot from Plaza

Athenee)

est ats?

The best places to eat are the ones far from touristic areas or

landmarks. For French food look for “Brasseries”. One of my favorite

restaurants is La Maison Blanche. A picnic at the Champs de mars or

Jardins du Trocadero is also a good idea.

Photographic hot spots to visit in Paris?

Paul Hilton

Call of the Wild

Paul Hilton’s love of the natural world and the

wildlife that inhabits it is evident in his work, with the

numerous awards Paul has received for his

Conservation Photography recognition not only of

Paul’s talent behind the lens, but also for the tenacity

shown in chasing down the facts to expose the grisly

underbelly of the illegal wildlife trade, as well as

global environmental andconservation causes that

he is passionate about.

Tell us a bit about your career and how you became a conservation photojournalist?

I grew up in North Queensland, and everyday after school I would go to Parks & Wildlife to see what I could do to

help out so my love of the outdoors and wildlife started at a young age.

In 1996 I began my photographic career as an assistant with a commercial photographer, so learning about working

it dieent tye o fil ot netie lide fil nd dieent tyle o litin tenie

By 2000 I was planning my own photo shoots and working

hard to get photographic assignments. In 2001 working on

assignment for Animals Asia Foundation on an exposé

focused on the rescuing of Asiatic Black Bears which where

being taken from the wild and having their bile drained by

repeatedly injecting a catheter into their gallbladder while

still alive to drain the bile for use in traditional chinese

that still continues until this day with 7-10,000 captive bears

With the Bear bile farming story picked up and published

by National Geographic and later winning the Ark Trust

Award things were headed in the right direction for a career

in conservation photojournalism.

Continuing work with the commercial photographer, whilst

doing some pro-bono work, some work for NGO’s and

getting some grants to be able to continue to work on

conservation based projects.

You’ve had some pretty big wins with the conservation

work you do, and as big as those wins are there is still so

much to do! Any tricks you can share on how you stay

positive, in the face of environmental problems that to the

average person may seem insurmountable?

My kids keep me inspired …. With much of my work focusing

important to focus on the beauty of these species and the

environments which they inhabit it’s that balance that keeps

things in perspective.

What’s the best nature buzz you’ve experienced while out

Getting in the water with cetacean, Blue whales, Sperm Whales,

Humpback Whales. Also seeing Forest Elephants in their

environment, communicating with each other going about

their day is a very moving experience.

‘The Pangolin Pit’

Natural History Museum;

Winner 2016

The Wildlife Photojournalist Award: Single Image

Paul Hilton, UK/Australia

Wildlife photojournalism at it’s most grisly. Paul’s image of 4,000 defrosting pangolins, which were

found in Medan, Indonesia, hidden in a shipping container behind a façade of frozen fish.

With all eight species (4 Asian/ 4 Africian) of Pangolin trafficked this makes the Pangolin the

world’s most trafficked animal.

Pangolin meat and blood is eaten as a delicacy illegally supplied to “high class” restaurants

through black market suppliers and is extremely expensive ranging from US$1,750 - US$7,000.

The Pangolins scales are used in Traditional Chinese Medicines, believed to treat a variety of

ailments, though there is no scientific evidence to support this belief.

Paul Hilton says “Wildlife crime is big business, It will stop only when the demand stops.”

25 years, that’s some achievement, any insights,

tips you might like to share to other bands whom

would like to enjoy such longevity?

Dream big, but keep your feet in the vege patch.

So I’m lovin’ the single “World She Waits” from

your latest album “Commercial Grates 2018

version” resonating with me in more ways than

one, can you share a bit about the inspiration

behind this song ….

i i te fit ollotion o e e enned

with Nino Birch in the last year from iconic

Wellington band Beat Rhythm Fashion.

“World She Waits” is about indigenous land rights.

We started this creative process after we were

rejected for requesting Nino play a song of ours to

represent the NZ Recorded Music Industry Awards.

Commercial Grates is our collection of radios cuts. It ain’t so much a new album, more an anthology of

the 25 years of “cheese” grated for radio. Many of these tracks were not released digitally.

We prefer to write full length tunes for long play albums, and in the process have leanrt the art of

crafting/ cutting versions for radio.

Your Turn Andrew, any questions you wished I’d asked but never did?

Andrew: Have you got a Good Shirt, and how do you feel about washing it?

Jamie @goodshirt.co: Yep, I’ve got a few Good Shirts. I like washing them, I don’t like washing them.

I’d better explain that in more detail as my answer may seem a bit warped. The answer not as simple

as the question, so here goes the deep dive ....


I like washing my clothes simply because fresh

smelling clothes are better than mingin smelling

clothes. In addition to this with respect to Good

Shirt, at the development phase, it gives me real

world testing of the garments durability, how

well a Good Shirt will wear over the long term.

This testing has already resulted in working

INTERVIEW

NZ ARTIST

Simon Shepheard

Living Art & Repurposed Relics

In a research project you put together to support your lectureship at the University of Auckland’s Elam School of

Fine Arts, back in 2003 you chose the Wynyard Peninsula in which you put to paper ideas that were in harmony with

nature, inclusive of culture and the arts while at the same time enhancing city living.

I see key integral elements of your research project of bringing a strong sense of nature into the urban environment,

of developing a community venue for art and performances in Singapore’s “Gardens by the Bay”.

Gardens by the Bay is also built on reclaimed land and proving to be a huge success for both bringing more of the

natural world into the urban environment, making it a community venue for art and performances which has resulted

in not only le o te lol onity to enoy t lo lti oe ene tt i fily entened

destination of choice for international tourists visiting Singapore.

The designers/ architects of Gardens by the Bay might well have read your research project ay ; )

It’s Interesting to note 15 years later, the council has lit up the Auckland Habour Bridge, the redevelopment of Silo

Park hosting art, sculpture, temporary installations and performances of various kinds, food outlets ……

How do you think Auckland’s city council has done with the redevelopment of the Wynyard Peninsula to date?

Thank you Jamie for framing the Wynyard Peninsula proposal in that very relevant international context. The calibre

of ambition represented by those projects seems to be what is missing from the debate in New Zealand. The

Gardens by the Bay in Singapore, the High Line Park in New York or the Streets Beach downtown Brisbane are all

success stories that respond to the primal needs of the inhabitants rather than pander to the priorities of the usual

professionals who drive the big concrete & glass glory projects.

My understanding is that council only intended Silo Park as an interim use of that area and the planners, developers

and architects are waiting like salivating dogs for the industrial leases to expire. Unfortunately for them it's popularity

has left them with a bit of a conundrum and the pressure is on to keep it and I’m hoping that the public demand a

lot more - something like Tank Park.

What do you think still needs to be done to make the Wynyard Peninsula the best possible urban environment as

detailed under the four integrated elements that make up your concept for the area as documented in your research

project and take it to that next level that could be considered on a par with Singapore’s Gardens by the Bay.

Throughout your body of work you’ve upcycled a variety of items for use as your canvases. What was the initial

inspiration to use the wide range of pre-used materials that you repurpose to become canvases for your art

works? Do you now consider these repurposed materials of various objects an integral part of future works?

4 Integrated Elements, Simon Shepheard’s answer for the “Wynyard Peninsula Research project” an organically evolvable project. Image of artwork courtesy of Simon Shepheard @si_shep / simonshepheard.com


Do you have an artistic process you follow before you begin work on a series or a piece?

I think most Artists need to make space - an uncluttered environment & a calm mind - to accept the mistakes &

minor victories that are standard to the creative process. I like to integrate that as much as possible with my domestic

life.It means I can hang with the family anywhere, anytime and keep the momentum going. That's why I don't really

have a studio - I hate the idea of going to work.

The big thing for me in this latest body of work - the scapes on edited supports - is deciding initially what to paint

on what 'canvas' as you put it. That is fraught for me because you never really know what kind of marriage it's going

to be - like I said I'm looking for a kind of harmonious tension. The risk of wasting time on something that doesn't

succeed causes bouts of productive procrastination, when i’ll do days of unrelated tasks peppered with contemplative

scrutiny of the forces I have arraigned about me.

What are you working on at the moment ?

I've collected some great old frames over the years so I'm

curating those - giving them a kind of funky restoration.

I want to paint formal style portraits of our cousins the

great apes into them.

I'm gutted that humans are so removed from the life giving

generosity of our mothership Earth - that they are happy to

lay waste to her wonders in exchange for mountains of

over-manufactured crap.

The connection to us shining out through their eyes is

profound - they are still family.

Yeah so I’m aiming to give their expression that familial

recognition - that realization of kinship across a few million

years.

I want to capture that moment of epiphany - trigger a kind

of primordial empathy that snaps us out of our species

arrogance.

“Contemplating Man” Image of artwork courtesy of Simon Shepheard @si_shep / simonshepheard.com

Do you have any advice for budding artists pursuing art as a full time career?

When I was a rebellious student, Bob Ellis took me aside & counseled me to fuse art into my lifestyle so I could be

otle tel nd tt t ended doin o no y teil e nyee find inition

Another mentor, Dick Frizzell advised diversity of medium and to traverse the creative spheres in order to keep

inied id e d oe o y iet ydy o nition in id teil

Survival as a self-employed artist can be precarious - while money doesn't make you happy, it's very unpleasant

when you run out. That's not part of the 'discourse' at art school, but the truth is most students aren't going to be

invited into the club and will end up slaves in another context.

e indty i file nd de etiity i ndeed y ll o o teeee y lyin eotei

games with public funds. Private galleries can be swish retail venues often peddling a kind of architectural accessory.

In the long term - to maintain your general freedom - I suggest nurturing alternative income streams so you don’t

have to compromise your talent for either. And if you've got something meaningful to say....and want to communicate

“Lost Soles” Nusa Lembongan Island, Bali, Indonesia Images courtesy of Simon Shepheard @si_shep simonshepheard.com






Indonesia’s Leuser Ecosystem on the island of Sumatra is one of the most biodiverse regions in the

world, and the only place that Sumatran tigers, rhinos, orangutans and elephants co-exist in the wild.

Due to the loss of large parts of their natural habitat all of these species face a perilous existence

with extinction a very real threat.

The last wild herds of Sumatran elephants are forced to occupy mountain slopes due to much of their

preferred habitat, the lowland forest having been destroyed.

This loss of habitat is increasing humanildlie onit it te elent idin o o te lol

relationship they have formed. Whether you agree or not with the practice of man riding elephant, this

team working together towards a shared goal for the greater good.

Tragically since this image was taken Bunta has been poisoned and killed with one of his tusks removed.

With a total disregard for the law, wildlife crimes and the illegal ivory trade continue and it is in part

the work of both the Elephant Patrol Unit and the Conservation Response Unit in collaboration with

local authorities to try to put a stop these abhorrent acts.

The Sumatran elephant is the most endangered of all elephant species with the population believed

to number between 1500-2000 in total.

Conservation Photo Journalist/ Eco-warrior Paul Hilton has been a such positive force, shining a light

on the predicament these elephants and other species whom call the Leuser Ecosystem home.

Paul together with Wildlife Asia, and their partners in this initiative, Forum Konservasi, The Painted

Group and I Stand With My Pack are driving a comprehensive program to monitor and protect this

elephant population.

Elephant Patrol Units (EPU) will help protect remaining elephant herds from poachers, through

patrolling and removal of snares, poison baits and pit trap. They will work with local communities

within elephant migration paths to implement elephant deterrents and strategies for resolving the

All of these objectives ultimately aim to increase the Sumatran elephants chance of survival as a

With one Elephant Patrol Unit now in operation

the good work is already underway, and with

more units needed to achieve these inspiring

goals the question of ongoing funding is always

front and center.
