Manukura - the little white kiwi.

It's been a pretty exciting couple of days. Three weeks ago at the Pukaha Mount Bruce wildlife centre, the thirteenth kiwi chick of the season was hatched, and he's a little bit special. He's a North Island Brown Kiwi who just so happens to be white. His name is Manukura and he's not an Albino, he's just got pretty cool genes.

After a 19-hour working day on Sunday and a fair bit of running around and planning, the story will break today and be featured on tonights Close Up program (that's Tuesday 24 May) and in Wednesday's media. I had a 5 minute session with Manukura for photos and then 10 minutes to shoot video. A very busy 15 minutes with the little guy, but very cool.

If you get the chance, get to Mount Bruce before the end of May as he'll likely be able to be seen in the Kiwi House. It's definitely worth the drive.

The all new Jet Weddings site

It's finally live... the all new Jet Weddings website. I've wanted to get this done for a while and it makes sense to have two (virtually) separate commercial/editorial and weddings sites. So here it is: www.jetproductions.co.nz/weddings

5 months of sport, crammed into 2 minutes.

For the past five or six summers, I've travelled the country chasing athletes around shooting the Contact Triathlon Series for Triathlon New Zealand. It takes me to some great spots and the challenge is keeping the work fresh and coming up with something new every event. Thankfully it's a pretty photogenic sport. I've crammed a bunch of moments from the latest series held over the 2010/11 summer into a two minute video. Check it.
