Stephen Western, New Zealand Photographer.
I am a professional photographer based in Russell, Bay Of Islands, New Zealand. My photos appear prominently on much of the Bay of Islands tourist literature, and have appeared, including on the cover of the Air New Zealand magazine "Kia Ora", as well as in galleries across Northland and Auckland.
I am available for commercial assignments, weddings, and location guide work. A large display of my work can be seen in the foyer of Paihia Pacific Hotel and the information office on Paihia Wharf. The South Sea Art Gallery in Russell and The Bach Gallery in Whangarei also exhibit my work.
All the photos on this website are available for sale through this site or direct from me, and there are many more variations available. Should there be a theme you are considering or if you wish to discuss personal preferences, I am willing to work with that.
Here in the Bay Of Islands, the Northern part of New Zealand, I take many people sailing as we run sailing charters here (KINGFISHER CHARTERS)'. Also, we have an accommodation B&B business. (VILLA RUSSELL B&B). Should visitors require some assistance with photography, be it finding the best places, or technique, I am a good person to have around and assist. I have worked as a safari guide photographer in this area in the past which includes the far north of New Zealand. In NZ Ph free call 0800kingfisher to contact.
