ABout Me

I’m Sheryl
I’m a freelance lifestyle, portrait, food & drink, travel, and branding photographer. Working in publishing for over 20 years  I developed a real love for editorial and lifestyle photography. I am fascinated by the whole story of products, brands or destinations. This includes,  ‘behind the scenes’, the people, the creative process, the journey, as well as, of course, the finished article. As well as photography I am also a stylist and designer.

I worked for many years as an art director for some of the worlds leading fashion and lifestyle magazines and with many advertising clients such as Harrods watches, Adidas, Kenzo, British Airways Airports, The Swiss Embassy, Hong Kong Tourism, SKY tv, Ford, Mercedes, LO’real and many more.

One of my skills as an art director was being able to move fluidly through different genres, looks and styles. I also have a strong conceptual approach and ability to bring ideas to life visually and this is reflected in my photography portfolio.

I can style projects and am skilled in retouching, post-production and providing print-ready files for editorial.

I consider all projects big or small, just email sheryl@westkin.co.nz to discuss your ideas!

As well as commercial photography I also have my online fine art print gallery. If you would like to see and buy some original New Zealand art visit, sherylburson.com
