MCB Featured Photographer: Katrina Weidner

Big Congrats are in order for our selected featured photographer, Katrina Weidner! Katrina has just completed the one year full time diploma in visual arts majoring in digital photography at Raffles College of Design and Commerce, Auckland – you go gal! What a great accomplishment and we look forward to seeing more of your work here on MCB and out in the community.

1. What I can't live without in my camera bag is... spare charged batteries and extra memory cards ... nothing is more embarrassing than being at a client’s location but not being able to do the shoot because of flat batteries.

2. My idea of a perfect Sunday is… a day when I can get up when it suits me, leave all the everyday things behind, spend my time in harmonious company & have the opportunity to keep discovering new exciting things that enrich my body and soul.

3. The best thing about New Zealand is...  for me, well actually there are so many things that are just plain awesome in NZ that it is hard to choose … hmm, let me think - and put it into these few words … to me best in Aotearoa is the combination of it’s nature, it’s people & it’s relaxed lifestyle.

4. What makes me laugh out loud are… all the little things in life that don’t quite turn out the way they were intended – the little hick-ups of life so to say - as well as witty jokes. There is nothing more refreshing than a day with the chance to laugh now and then.

5. In five years I hope to have… finished my studies & and have found my niche market – running a highly successful freelance business as a sought after commercial and editorial photographer & living a truly happy and fulfilled life … I also hope, that my younger son, who will by then be a teenager won’t be too much of a challenge & my older boy by then in his twen’s will have found the perfect working and living environment for himself.
