Commercial Photography in Queenstown & Across New Zealand
Chris Chase is a commercial photographer and videographer based in Queenstown, New Zealand, working with brands, tourism operators and businesses nationwide. Shoots run as half or full days on location, covering product, brand campaign, team and lifestyle imagery. Most projects are delivered within two weeks, with commercial usage rights for web, print and paid social included.
Whether you’re launching a product, updating your brand visuals, or creating content for a campaign…I produce clean, intentional imagery that connects.
What I Offer
Three Ways To Work Together
Whether you need a full campaign shoot, event coverage that captures the energy of the day, or a content library refresh, every brief starts from the same place:
How do you want to capture the human connection?
01
Brand & Campaign Photography
Full production shoots built around a campaign brief. Product, people and place — shot to work as a set across your website, social, print and paid advertising. Planned backwards from your channels and deadlines, so you get the crops and formats you actually need rather than a folder you have to crop yourself.
- Half, Full or Multi Day
- Video add-on available
02
Rebrand & Refresh Shoots
For businesses that have changed something and need the imagery to catch up. A new fit-out, new premises, new branding, a new product line or a new team. One shoot that replaces your whole visual set, so nothing on your website is still showing the old look.
- Half, Full or Multi Day
- Video add-on available
03
Content Library Build
A planned shoot that fills your content calendar for months. Stills, vertical crops and hero images captured in one production and delivered as a structured library — so your marketing team stops rationing the same twelve photos.
- Half, Full, or Multi Day
- Video add-on available
Who I work with
Commercial Photography Across New Zealand Industries
Hospitality & Accommodation
Restaurants, bars, lodges and accommodation needing imagery that sells the room before someone books it.
Trades, Construction & Manufacturing
Fit-outs, installations, product and process. I can capture the entire process from build to completion, and humanise the impact of the project.
Healthcare, Education & Not-for-Profit
Video and imagery where the story matters more than the product. I work hard to make sure the human connection and storytelling shines through in these instances/
Fitness, Retail & Local Service Businesses
Rebrands, remodels, and the everyday imagery a growing business runs out of faster than it expects.
Corporate & Professional Services
Headshots, team portraits and executive imagery that doesn’t look like stock.
Agencies & Marketing Teams
Agencies needing a reliable Southern Lakes shooter for client briefs. Someone who works to spec, hits the deadline, and is easy to hand a brief to.
How it works
From Brief To Delivery
Discovery Call
We talk about your brand, the brief, and what you need the images to do. I ask about channels, audience, and timing before we discuss locations or logistics.
Shoot Planning
I scout locations, plan the shot list, and confirm logistics including permits if required. Weather-contingency planning included for outdoor shoots.
On Location Shoot
I work efficiently and adapt in real time — outdoor shoots rarely go exactly to plan. I have experience across snow, trail, water, and urban environments.
Edit & Delivery
Colour-graded in Lightroom, resized for your specified channels, and delivered via online galleries. Most shoots delivered within 2 weeks post shoot (this is negotiable).
