Back to the future-istic weekend!

It's not very often I use my corner of the world wide web to talk about personal stuff. So thought I'd mix it up a bit and personally thank Floyd Morgan and the team for putting on an AMAZING Illuminate Paint Party in Wellington over the weekend. Big ups for hooking me up with a ticket too! So glad I didn't miss out! 1,500 people packed the giant warehouse on Wellington's waterfront dressed from head to toe in white. At 12:30 streams of paint showered onto the crowd covering everything in its path with swirls of UV paint. Giant UV lights turned this party in to a scene previously unseen to Wellington.  Fellow photographers Max and Mischa were there capturing the event for Snap Star - So checkout their write-up & photos from the night here. I was lucky enough to borrow their camera for a wee bit and get some sweet photos in the crowd.

Now that the fun weekend is over, back to business. I was up in Auckland last weekend to cover a friends 21st birthday party. Even though she didn't make it to 12pm - Still managed to get several hundred photos and put together a video of the highlights. Check out the photos & video here.

I was asked by Tokyo Teahouse to come along to their ladies only affair on Friday night and cover their "Let there be colour" party. I jumped at the opportunity, and had a great night snapping the colourfully dressed lady-only crowd. Check out these photos here.

Some other recent photo additions to my website have been Wellingtons Wagamama's Restaurant,  Wellington From The Air (Recent trip in a helicopter over Wellington City), and Emma Law's Photoshoot in Christchurch.

There always seems to be one weekend every few months that is packed back-to-back with events that it's near to impossible to get around to everything. Normally first-come-first-served, or most-important-first policies would help, but not this weekend. I need to get along to everything and it's going to be one busy saturday night! Super Club 09, Lauren Sampson's turning the big twenty-one, Dan Carter's birthday drinks, KPMG Ball, St Orans School Ball, Xquisit Promotions Launch Meeting & Party, and Jonathan Helix's Birthday Bash! If you see me out and about grab my collar and say hey!
