Last week I had a fantastic time attending the Infocus conference, which this year the New Zealand Institute of Professional Photography (NZIPP) held in Queenstown. The speakers were amazing and I came home full of inspiration to start new personal projects and to apply all the new things I’ve learned. And huge congrats to all the award winners at the 2015 NZIPP Iris Awards for their fantastic work.

These are the awards I received this year, in the Portrait (Classic), Wedding (Classic) and Travel categories, which were enough for me to progress from a Master to a Fellow of the NZIPP. By the way, last year I received an award for a photograph of cats, but this year my winning portrait images feature dogs!
