Kia Ora, I’m Jamie

My love for photography came from a family trip to the beach when I was 10. During a morning stroll, laying amongst the jagged coastline rock was a GoPro hero 3. That little camera ignited the passion for photography and videography. The idea that every moment stored on those little cameras was a unique snapshot of memories past inspired me to shoot everything and anything that caught my eye.

Fast forward to my final year of high school. Like many of my friends, the question of what to do next was front and centre of my mind. As my peers filled out Halls of residence forms and applied for student loans. I decided to do what I loved most. Immersing myself in the action sport industry. Spending every day either Riding, Shooting or Working on bikes and I can hand on heart say its the best decision i’ve ever made!

Along this journey i’ve been privileged to meet some incredible people, learn from some of the industry’s leading photographers, have some epic opportunities and make ever-lasting memories.

They say if you find something you love to do, you’ll never work a day in your life…
