‘My catalogue has evolved from my own explorations and experiments into photography, taking my camera with me on every holiday over the last five years ... but also from listening to my customers and understanding what they really love about New Zealand and our unique lifestyle - from the vibrant blue skies, the red pohutakaws and our unforgettable iconic Rangitoto. It’s a great feeling to know that my photos adorn the walls of homesick Kiwis all over the world, from London, to India, to the South of France, throughout Scotland ..etc..

Popular Auckland locations that Lucy has photographed include Piha Beach, Muriwai Beach, Rangitoto, Auckland City skyline at night, Orakei Boatsheds, One Tree Hill, Flax (Harakeke) and Pohutakawa flowers and Toi Toi collages. Lucy’s Urban portfolio includes K Road, Kingsland, Grey Lynn and Ponsonby graffiti details that are merged into edgy ‘Street Art’ photo collages.

From small matted photographic limited edition prints to 4m long photographic murals, canvas photos, photography printed directly onto aluminium and plywood, contemporary white box framed pieces, block framed works ... She often photographs secific scenes for her clients and prints them to their size and specification.

Since opening in 1979 Aotea Square has hosted events large and small - from victory parades and rock concerts to protest rallies and busking festivals. But after nearly 30 years of constant use, Aotea Square is showing its age. The roof of the Civic car park, which runs underneath the square, has structural damage and needs repairing.

The car park repair details and Aotea Centre alterations have already been confirmed. The Aotea Centre entrance will be made more welcoming, with centred front steps and a new box office and café.

The draft design was developed by landscape designers Ted Smyth and Associates, with input from other leading urban designers, technical experts and several stakeholder groups.

Feedback is welcome until submissions close on August 1st.
