2024 has been about working damn hard together, but never forgetting to have fun! 😉

We could not be more stoked with the brand photos that we have just received from the talented 📸 They have captured how we roll as a husband and wife team so well!

Because when camera's are involved, we understand more than most that the nerves on set can be high! But the way we operate in the office and on set for our clients is the same - we keep it light hearted, we bring the energy and we support each other to get the best outcomes.

Looking forward to sharing more of our pics with you! And Kasia - we owe you a drink girl! You are a gun with that camera 📷 - Thanks so much for hiding our awkward and making us look good 🙌!

One of the highlights for us this year has to be all the amazing people we have got to hang with on set! 🙌🏻

We think we are so lucky to work in a community where collaborations and referral opportunities are so strong. People see how you work, they get your vibe and you better believe that they talk! And when you do good mahi, you tend to connect with others that do the same - Wellington is absolutely where its at!

We loved this shoot last month where we got to capture content for and combine the session with a branding shoot with the talented - Looking forward to showing you all the slick looking content rolling out to share the vibe from shoot day! 🎬

What do you reckon team… Should we make it mandatory for Emmet to wear these while editing for the rest of the month or what? 🤣🎄🙌🏻

14/11/2024

That captured perfectly 🙌

This cracker was taken at the end of the night at the New Zealand Virtual Assistant Awards! Rach and Sam in full celebration mode! - Massive shoutout to the talented Creative for capturing this moment 📸

The work we do will never feel like work when we keep having this much fun! 🎉

We’re all about creating an environment where you can just be you on camera.

Whether it's cracking a few jokes or taking time to make sure everyone feels comfortable, we love making our shoots feel relaxed and fun 😄

Recently, we heard from a client who tried out a bigger production firm but came back to us with one standout thing in mind; how at ease they felt working together.

We get it—getting on camera can be intimidating! But we’re all about creating content that feels real, authentic, and showcases your best self. And when you feel comfortable, that definitely comes across on camera. It's what we love most about being a small, down-to-earth team with values that focus on connection and creativity.

If you’re ready to step outside your comfort zone and create something you’ll be proud to share with the world, we're here for it.

The hero’s journey isn’t just for movies—it’s a narrative we all live out, especially as business owners and creatives.

Think about it: your journey likely started with a call to action, an idea or challenge that pulled you out of your comfort zone. You stepped into the unknown, faced obstacles, learned new skills, and evolved through each challenge.

In business, the hero’s journey can look like taking the leap to start something new, pushing through challenges that seemed impossible, or discovering personal growth along the way.

These are the stories that inspire others and connect you to your audience on a deeper level.

At Riddle Media, we’re here to help you share those powerful moments—the struggles, the triumphs, and everything in between. You don’t need to be perfect; you just need to be you. Let’s capture your journey and remind your audience why you do what you do 🎥🎬

Ready to take the next step? We only have a couple of spots left for 2024 for Brand Story videos, so if you are a Wellington business owner and feel called to take the leap - we would love to hold your hand through the process.
