REALLY REAL IMAGES

FOR REALLY REAL PEOPLE 

Heya, I’m Ethan!

I’ve spent the last decade here in Auckland splitting my time between science and advertising, instead discovering my happy place is behind the camera photographing people in love. Funny how life works.

I’m not a fan of the overly-posey editorial stuff, or the trend du jour – I’m just here to capture connection and emotion, those too-quick moments, and everything in between (and have a shitload of fun doing it). You won’t find styled or workshop shoots on my website – just real images of real people having a damn good time with the people they love.

I won’t bore you with more about me, but read on to hear some lovely words from past clients (now friends), check out my work and get in touch if you like what you see.

<3 Ethan

Kind Words

Gabby and Sam

We could not have chosen a better wedding photographer - Ethan was professional, friendly, cool and collected (despite the pouring rain), and captured gorgeous shots.

We were stoked with his ability to capture genuine, super happy photos as well as his talent for getting artistic and interesting shots. Highly highly recommended and so grateful for his expertise!

Geoff and Holly

Ethan is a magician with a camera! He captured every moment of our wedding so beautifully. Somehow, he made us look like actual models instead of two stressed-out newlyweds. His calm and professional vibe kept us relaxed, and every photo is so perfect we might need to dedicate an entire wall in our house to his work. If you want stunning pictures, lots of laughs, and a photographer who delivers - Ethan’s your guy.

Matt and Laura

From the first email with Ethan we felt so welcomed, following a few more emails I called Ethan to finalise our plans, ethan so excitedly welcomed on board our crazy plans to travel to Wanaka to film our wedding, he brought the most epic vibes, we all felt at ease and everyone felt like Ethan was just the right fit for our day and was apart of our family.

Ethan was very professional but more importantly he was a heck load of fun to be around, he showed empathy during our sentimental moments and this showed during our film with the most meaningful touch to the end of our video that touches the hearts of all who watch it, both Matt and myself cannot thank Ethan enough for his work, the audio, the clips he choose and the instrumentals/music were all just so us, Ethan nailed it!

Again thank you from the bottom of our hearts Ethan you went above and beyond for us, you have a true heart of gold and given us the greatest gift we will treasure for our lifetime 💙

Aimee and Aaron

We were lucky enough to have Ethan shoot our wedding in October 2020. From the moment we booked him, Ethan was professional, kind and made the lead up and the actual wedding day wonderful.

He is easy going and will potter round getting the shots that make your heart sing. He had great communication in the lead up to the wedding, especially with changing restrictions. I would thoroughly recommend Ethan as a photographer, and I look forward to having him shoot other precious moments in our family.

Dale and Eve

We used Ethan for our wedding and we were so pleased we did. Not only did he take exceptional photos but it was the small things that stood out - he was incredibly intuitive and thoughtful over the course of the night - carrying things for us when we went out to do couple shots, getting water when I was standing at the alter waiting, he could see I was nervous. He was always looking out for the best shots, worked hard all night and took control of the wedding guests when needed.

Would 100% recommend Ethan. Thanks mate for making our memories last forever and making the night so easy.

Kat and David

We could not have been happier with our choice of photographer & videographer combo. Ethan was the first vendor we chose and the best money we spent on our day. Ethan is epic, fun and super chilled out people who made our whole day feel really relaxed!

We were blown away with our photos, they did an incredible job of really capturing the feeling of the day. Ethan even popped down to the venue the day before to snap some photos of us getting the venue ready and picked up coffee for my whole bride tribe the morning of the wedding!

Mani and Rebecca

Ethan was absolutely amazing to work with on our wedding day! He’s not only incredibly talented but also so much fun to be around. He made us feel comfortable from the start, and his positive energy was contagious. The photos he took are stunning — he captured every moment perfectly and really knows his stuff. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out.

So… ready to chat?

Work

Here’s a little collection of recent work – simply click on an image to see more from the set.

Look, we all know how usually this goes.

A photographer says “enquire for pricing” or “packages start at $X” to get you on the line, and then upsells you into something you’re not comfortable with after too many emails back and forth – or, they waste your time and theirs, and you both walk way bummed.

I don’t roll that way, so here you go – my price guide as of January ‘25. Just click on each to expand for inclusions, details and add-ons.

Of course, if none of these quite suit what you’re after, let’s chat and build something that makes more sense. You can call, text or email at any time, and if you like filling out forms (you weirdo), just scroll a little further.
