Air New Zealand Vs Qantas
As part of the 2015 Rugby World Cup, Air New Zealand and Qantas had a bet with each other for the final. It turned out The All Blacks and Air New Zealand won the world cup and the bet. Which then meant Qantas had to wear All Blacks jerseys and have the Captain announce a big congratulations to the All Blacks on winning the Rugby World Cup. We got to be the only photographers there to capture the handover of the jerseys and Qantas staff wearing the All Blacks gear. As would be expected it was received better on the Air New Zealand social media pages than it was on Qantas but both got a lot of hits and the Air New Zealand post had almost 3000 re shares. It was the most successful social media campaign Air New Zealand has done, getting global coverage.
Costa!
Location Photography at Sydney’s Royal Botanic Gardens with the power duo Nina and Jo from Mahlab Media, Jas & I had the privilege of photographing Costa Georgiadis from Gardening Australia for the October-November issue of Active Retirees.
The most fun we’ve have had on a shoot in a long time!!! The energy and life that Costa brought to the shoot was amazing.

We promised Costa that after we finished the shoot, we’d do a few shots of him and his 2 chickens (outside the Gardens), one of which ended up on the cover!
Cheers,
Dave
