Black Feather Studio

Have not yet heard a positive thing said about ‘Stan’. Extortionately high deposit as it is asking 50% up front (this is much higher than industry standard). Although a contract is signed and aware deposit is non refundable, one would hope this man had a kind bone in his body when dates are cancelled over a year out and refunds the deposits. Particularly when it is found out the date that was cancelled has then been rebooked so no money was lost out on by him if anything was 150% up. He also does not acknowledge cancellation messages, emails or contact and cowers away with your hefty chunk of $ in his pocket. A young fella who won’t be around for long I imagine given his lack of personal skills, money grabbing attitude and spread of negative feedback.Edited: to prove point 1: see photo of terms of trade from a booking which clearly states 50%. I have used examples of three people who have booked and cancelled in these positions. One was a particularly personal problem cancellation (all other vendors although contracts were signed, returned money of deposit because so much notice was given).New Zealand might be small but there is no way I know of the three people that have cancelled (2 of which by the way you were not understanding about as your response was either nil or very cold). It’s not a personal attack, the information I have provided is true. It might not be about your films, but how a person is treated by the vendor is just as much about the before as the after.

We hired Stan for corporate photography in invercargill recently and are absolutely thrilled with the results. He was able to take high quality professional photos for our corporate brand with tight deadlines and we will definitely be hiring him again.

We hired Stan to video our wedding at the last minute, due to Covid interrupting our wedding plans for the second time & I wanted family stuck in Auckland to be able to watch it. Best decision ever!!! the day went so fast and it was nice to have footage capturing the whole day to re-watch afterwards. Stan did an amazing job! Highly recommend!!!

Black Feather Studio made our day memorable by capturing every piece of the wedding that we'd hoped for. Stan went above and beyond to meet us before the special day and on the lead up to, whilst making sure we felt comfortable in front of the camera on the day. He took the lead directing shots with multiple people and supplied the imagery in a timely manner. We were ecstatic with the quality and volume of photos taken and felt like he really nailed the brief. Cannot recommend Black Feather Studio photography highly enough.

Absolutely loved working with Black Feather Studio! Stan and Andrei are legends! We had an absolute blast on our wedding day and they really captured the true us, our friends and whanau. Super stoked! Cheers lads!!Great to work with leading up to the wedding and we loved our engagement shoot with Andrei who made us feel at ease for the big day.Highly recommend!!!
