travelers stories about Ocean in Tahunanui, New Zealand

Ocean in Tahunanui, New Zealand

  39 km from Wairau River


My style of photography is different. I have combined my love of soft focus, shallow depth of field, the water &the colour blue to come up with this series of photos. This photo was taken waist deep in the water with a wave nearly completely taking out my camera as I held it near the surface. The bigger the risk the better the result.

travelers stories about Ocean in Tahunanui Beach, New Zealand

Ocean in Tahunanui Beach, New Zealand

  40 km from Wairau River


This photo was taken at the beach in my hometown. I love this place for both aesthetic and sentimental reasons. The ocean at sunset is my absolute favourite and this shot is no different. The bokeh is a result of a wave splashing with the glow from the setting sun hitting the surface. Magic.

A view out towards Cable Bay from Glenduan at sunset. The colors aren’t as vivid as I’m facing away from the sun… however I love the soft tones that you can get with this perspective.

travelers stories about Watercourse in Robin Hood Bay, New Zealand

Watercourse in Robin Hood Bay, New Zealand

  73 km from Wairau River


We found this free camp site called “Robin Hood Bay” and we thought it had an nice name and why not check it out. The drive there was pretty rough and our old Honda Odyssey was really struggling to get there, as we got up on the next morning we saw we had a flat tire so we were stuck there with no phone signal. We met a couple of german guys who came there too with two cars, one of them was also not running anymore and the other one was an 4x4 Mitsubishi. We stayed in this bay for 4 days before we got our tire fixed and it was an super awesome experience.
