The Sutherland Team
Paul brings the creative chaos. Marnie makes sure it happens on time.Photographer + Producer.
Experienced, organised and pretty easy to have around.
Paul shoots. Marnie makes sure the shoot flows smoothly.
Between us, we’ve spent a lot of years working with businesses, agencies, people and places throughout New Zealand. Every detail is sorted pre-shoot, there’s no room for assumptions, the process is no stress, professional and drama free.
We take the work seriously. But we like to have a bit of fun along the way.
PAUL SUTHERLAND
Photographer
Experienced. Upfront. Awesome with people.
With more than 25 years as a commercial photographer, Paul works across people, agricultural, rural, industrial, corporate and advertising photography.
He’s comfortable with people who love being photographed and, more importantly, people who don’t. He reads the room quickly, keeps things moving and has a knack for getting natural, believable images without losing sight of the brief.
MARNIE SUTHERLAND
Producer
The detail nerd. The organiser. The one keeping everything on track.
Marnie handles the moving parts around a shoot — people, locations, logistics, schedules and budgets — keeping production on track and on budget so everyone else can concentrate on the job.
Her background in sales, marketing and customer relationships means she understands what’s happening on both sides of the brief. She’s organised, practical and very good at finding a solution when plans inevitably change.

“Paul is an exceptional photographer and has the unique ability to truly capture the essence of his subject. They say a picture tells a thousand words and honestly, Paul is the best writer I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. 1,000% recommended!”
Caron Stewart
“I’ve worked with Paul on many commercial photography projects and he’s outstanding. His eye for detail is exceptional, he works extremely well with clients, and his extensive experience ensures he reliably delivers on brief every time. Highly recommended.”
