Charlotte is drawn to people with interesting life stories and those who challenge today’s societal conventions. Her work often embraces surrealism and, coming from a music video background, she attempts to push conventional storytelling boundaries in a visually striking and compelling way. Having worked as an editor for 14 years, storytelling is ingrained within her. This coupled with a strong visual style helps her craft stories that are poetic and emotionally driven. Charlotte has directed numerous award-winning music videos for artists including Kimbra, Aldous Harding, Benee, The DMA’s and Marlon Williams. In 2018 Charlotte directed ‘Give Kate A Voice’, a short film that commemorated 125 years of women’s suffrage in New Zealand and won multiple awards. Her short documentary ‘Nowhere To Be’, following cinematographers from around the world and their experience of the COVID-19 pandemic in April 2020, is currently being entered into festivals. In 2020, Charlotte's short film ‘OK Chlöe’ was acquired by The New Yorker Documentary, featured on The Guardian, Short of the Week and numerous festivals. Following on from the success of her short, Charlotte is currently in production on a follow-on feature documentary. She is also in development on two further feature documentaries, is completing a Sundance TV writing course alongside co-writer and producer Madeleine Askwith and has several short films, a feature film and an additional television series she is developing.

David K. Shields has been travelling the world for the past 25 years, the last 20 of which have been devoted to the pursuit of the best image. He is one of New Zealand’s most reknowned contemporary photographers, having worked for many of the top fashion magazines worldwide, including Vogue Homme International (Fr and Jp), Vogue Paris (Fr), Crash (Fr), Dazed and Confused (UK and Australia), Japanese GQ and Commons & Sense (Jp), German GQ and GQ Style, Russian Tatler, Italian Marie Claire, and Black Magazine (NZ). In addition to this his highly inspirational commercial work has kept him in demand across the globe. David has continued to nurture his passion for photography, expressing the artful vision and “eye for the moment” evident in his fashion imagery within an ever-growing body of personal work, particularly in portrait photography which is being further explored within an arts context of late. With a firm belief that the best will be achieved working in conjunction with others, including specialists in related fields, he is enjoying both the challenge and the interaction with friends and colleagues. The results these collaborations can achieve are made obvious by the palpable energy caught within these images. He considers a journey is best shared with others - it gives rise to questions, and better still illumination. “I look for Character and Energy that inspires me, the ability of a subject to show me that spontaneous moment no-one can predict, and to thrive within the freedom of boundaries this lifestyle allows me.”
