Kia ora, I’m David.
I grew up in southern Germany and have called Christchurch home since 2015. I started out photographing nature and landscapes in my early 20s, was named NZ Wilderness Magazine Photographer of the Year in 2019, and have been photographing weddings, people, events and live music along the way.
