While scouting for the right facades for my recent abstract series I took these few shots which displayed some beautiful light, so I thought I’d share.

One Night, Two Days a photographic exhibition

Michael Valli — Sat, 17 Nov 2012 04:12:12 +0000

Over the last few months I’ve been lucky enough to be involved in the organisation and execution of “One Night, Two Days”, a photographic exhibition by 22 of Wellington’s leading commercial photographers.

It has been a fantastic opportunity to network with a great bunch of like minded photographers from around town. As well as learn a huge amount about what goes into setting up and hosting an exhibition.

The exhibition was held over the last few days and the overall response has been hugely positive! We had a fantastic turn out to our opening night and a good number of people through over the last few days.

Below is the work that I produced and exhibited for the show. Rather than waffling on I’ll let it speak for it’s self.

Recently flew down to Christchurch to capture the interior of Press House now that the interior fit out is complete and The Press have moved in.

Latest work from Christchurch

Michael Valli — Sun, 06 May 2012 22:47:48 +0000

A couple of weeks ago I spent some time down in Christchurch shooting for Thermosash, one of New Zealand’s largest curtain wall manufactures & installers.

This time round two of the buildings were the Solid Energy Building at Show Place and the soon to be demolished IRD building in the Red Zone (Christchurch CBD).

Waterfront Abstraction

Michael Valli — Wed, 02 May 2012 23:00:59 +0000

Having a little look at abstraction today. I really enjoy shooting this sort of work as it makes you think a lot more purposefully about what you are and are not putting in the frame.

Meridian Building & Kumutoto

Following on from yesterday below is the Meridian Building situated at Kumutoto – Wellington Waterfront.

Kumutoto Toilets – Wellington Waterfront

Michael Valli — Mon, 30 Apr 2012 23:00:09 +0000

What a gorgeous day it was yesterday! and what better way to spend that day than to jump in the car and head into town for a walk around the waterfront in the sun.

The waterfront’s changed a lot in the 7 years we’ve been living overseas. There are several new fantastically designed commercial buildings along with some new restaurants & bars.

However there are also some little design quirks that really have no other place than in Wellington. The toilet below for instance… Designed by Bret Thurston of Studio Pacific Architecture.
