Andy joined us and captured the magical moments everyone had at the Heart Kids Taranaki Enchanted Tea Party. The photos captured the essence, joy, happiness and magical atmosphere of the whole event. From the food to the entertainers and all the activities. Every time I look at the pictures it takes me straight back to the moments and all the feelings of fun and happiness on the day. Through it all Andy couldn't have been more charming, fun, professional and easy to work with. It was a pleasure to see you work and the photos were amazing.

Hi Andy,

Just a note to say again, thank you so much for your support and feedback. The Outdoor Leadership course prepared me extremely well for taking out the first Duke of Ed tramp in mid-May.

Going out on the training and assessments with you were such valuable experiences. With the other teacher, I was able to pass on some of the knowledge and skills I learnt, and we were able to give the students a truly positive trip, despite some major challenges and not actually getting to where we had planned to camp. On reflection, the most useful thing was your excellent modelling of constructive feedback, which served me well in conversations with some students.

"I have had a couple of great portrait sessions with Andy. During the sessions, he was very professional as well as making it enjoyable at the same time. Andy is such an experienced photographer which definitely showed during the sessions, and of course the great quality photos that came from them. Andy was my Graduation photographer, my family also thoroughly enjoyed the session and are so happy with the final results, they have proudly sent them to all of the family!"

"They are so beautiful. I can’t wait to get home and put them on the wall. Thank you very much for getting them printed quickly for me. Hubby can’t wait for me to get home to see them. You are so talented with your photography - your pics have “feeling”, for want of a better word to explain myself. - Thank you again.” - Anna Rawson

The Halberg Foundation commissioned Andy Thompson for a number of our national campaigns where we have been looking to tell a sensitive yet exciting story through photography. Andy’s attention to detail, which has on occasion meant an early start, and his immediate warmth with the people he is looking to capture through his lens is something the Foundation is extremely appreciative of. Andy’s eye for positioning, light, and story-telling through photography is a skill set that not all who click a camera have. My appreciation for Andy and his unique skill set was also evident recently when our family commissioned him to seize a very special moment in our lives. These photographs are the first thing that people see when they are welcomed into our home.
