A very unique rock structure on the Otago coast. Such an awesome mood when I visited, super windy up where this shot was taken!

travelers stories about Landmark in Nugget Point Lighthouse, New Zealand

Landmark in Nugget Point Lighthouse, New Zealand

We arrived at the lighthouse and we could finally see it when standing right next to it. The fog was really thick. We decided - wisely - to wait it out a bit from a distance. Luckily we didn’t have to wait long and were treated with a stunning sight. Nugget Point, New Zealand.

Travelling in a camper van for 10 days has some of its benefits. One of the benefits are being able to pull up and spend as much time as you want wherever you want. This shot was taken in NZ at Tunnel Beach.

We came home from Sandymount as the clouds were receding from the peninsula towards the city. The sun was shining through the mist and lighting up the water.

That water is really cold, like REALLY cold. Julia is a fantastic model and fantastic friend for doing this shoot for me. St Bathans is a stunning dark blue, lake surrounded by white cliffs, which made for a perfect spot to do a water shoot.

Waterway in Queenstown, New Zealand

  181 km from Otago


Truth be told, I didn’t even realise there were people in the image until I looked at it a few weeks later. It was a winter’s day in Queenstown and I was out for a walk while taking a break from the tours I guide. I always have my camera with me and the fall colours were out - a rare sight for a North Islander in New Zealand.

travelers stories about Forest in Queenstown Hill Walking Track, New Zealand

Forest in Queenstown Hill Walking Track, New Zealand

  181 km from Otago


We decided to go for a hike up the infamous Queenstown Hill Summit walk. It wasn’t easy for us beginners, but we kept on. We came to a fork in the track. The sign to the left “5 minute track” and the sign to the right “20 minute walk”. We decided to take the longer route which lead us to this dark looking forest where the sun light was kept away by the tall pine trees. We instantly felt mysterious and pulled out our cameras to capture this enchanting (some would say dead and dry) forest.
