Andrew Spencer

Professional Photographer

Andrew is a professional commercial and landscape photographer and videographer, his passion and excitement for photography spans over 25 years as a career and has had a lifetime love of taking photos since a child

 

"There is always something to learn about making pictures. I continually get myself educated on image-making techniques and trends through workshops and training courses. I experiment and I play, sometimes I even surprise myself. I am now looking forward to passing forward my extensive knowledge I have gained over my career in teaching photography workshops here in the South Island and especially my home town of Kaikoura

 

I’m passionate and professional and I cherish the process of conception, creation and capture of a great image and sharing that with others."
