about me

My name is Sampford (Sam) Cathie and I’m a Wanaka-based photographer that specialises in architectural photography, commercial photography and videography.

I started my own business in Auckland in 2012, and since then I’ve worked with a myriad of clients to help them tell stories and showcase their projects across the country.

In my downtime, my partner describes me as a “serial hobbyist” - I love to play guitar, hit the slopes, do karate and taste wines, although not all at once. Yet.

“Sam did an incredible job shooting our luxury property. Very professional and prompt with everything. We got exactly what we were after from our shoot and will definitely book him in the future.”

Jess, Holiday Rental Manager

“We contacted Sam to have photos taken of our residential section in Lake Hawea we are looking to sell. Sam was quick to respond, his pricing was competitive and we were really impressed with the end result. Couldn’t have asked for better! Would highly recommend.”

Jordan, Private Seller
