The one and only, Alex Haskell celebrates her 8 year anniversary today! 👏 From tight deadlines to big wins (and everything in between… aka a few menty b’s), Alex has been a huge part of the team and all the chaos that comes with it. Thank you for everything we see you do, but an even bigger thank you for all the extra work you do behind the scenes. We’re a lucky bunch to get to work alongside such a creative queen! 👸

It’s official… we gave away tickets to the perfect game. 🏉 Last week, we sent two groups of five to the Chiefs Captain’s Run, followed by game day tickets… and safe to say, we couldn’t have picked a better match. A huge thanks to everyone who entered on our socials, and to the Chiefs for putting on a game worth remembering. Unlucky Hurricanes, maybe next time! 🌪️

Each quarter, we recognise someone who’s made a real impact across our clients and our team. This time, it’s Jay Lee! 🏆 Jay consistently delivers great work and is a huge part of bringing ideas to life. Whether she’s behind the scenes or stepping in on shoots and edits, she’s always ready to jump in and make things happen. She brings a great attitude, supports the team around her, and keeps everything moving! Massive congrats Jay, very well deserved 👏

A fun dusk → night shoot for Livingstone Building NZ and McDonald's New Zealand Hamilton East. 📸 This 20-week rebuild focused on smarter design, better flow, and creating spaces where teams thrive. Disclaimer: this shoot was powered by coffee… and good timing ☕

Happy 3rd anniversary Arna ✨ Over the past three years, Arna has grown from producing high-quality content to stepping into her role as Content Manager, continuing to elevate both our work and our team. She brings creativity, organisation, and a strong sense of culture to everything she does (with a competitive edge on the foosball table ⚽). We’re incredibly lucky to have her as part of the team and look forward to what’s ahead. 💛

A few favourites from our shoot with SkyCity Entertainment Group, Bowl & Social! It was a fun one to work on, moving between bowling action and food/lifestyle moments and making it all feel seamless on camera. Big thanks to the talent for making everything look so smooth (even that walk back after a bowl! 😅)

Two things that are obvious from these photos: 1. We’ve been up to some real top-secret sh!t. 2. These photos definitely weren’t edited by our Graphic Designers… and if they were, we might be in trouble. On Wednesday, the team headed to Hobbiton for a strategy day, where we discussed… well, a LOT. But as the photos suggest, it’s all very hush-hush. 🤫 Bring on the rest of 2026, it's set to be a biggie!

Happy anniversary to our favourite boomerang... Nicola Farrant! ✨🪃 Nicola brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the team and is our go-to for just about everything. Account Director by day, ads wizard by night, and somehow still finds time for her role as office mum. We’re pretty damn lucky to have you back Nicola. 💛

Last Friday with the team at the Chiefs vs Moana Pasifika game. 🏉 Good food, good company, and plenty of passionate rugby commentary coming from the corporate box. A great night with the team and the perfect way to unwind after a busy week!

Many of the ideas, strategies, client relationships, and successes we’re proud of are shaped by the incredible women in our team. Today, we recognise and celebrate the impact women continue to have across our industry, and every industry. Happy International Women’s Day to all the amazing wāhine out there. 💜
