Gareth Pon is an extremely multi-talented film maker, photo shooter and Best African instagramer of 2014. Studio22 recently got to talk to Gareth about who is he is and what his work is all about. Here’s what he had to say…

Tell us a little bit about yourself, what genre best describes your work?

Timothy Gerges Photography Gareth Pon Instagrammer South Africa No Grad-3689-Recovered-RecoveredI am a half Mauritian, half Chinese, South African born Asian who loves to create. I’m a filmmaker & photographer, have a BA in Visual Communication and in the past have dabbled in Fashion Design, Architecture & Retail marketing. I now find myself passionately seeking out stories to tell from all around the world.

How would you describe your photography style?

I would say the genre of my work is very documentary/journalistic. However I always find myself exploring other genres continually.

If not a photographer you would have been?

An Astronaut, chef, brain surgeon or architect in that order.

How do you keep yourself motivated and your photography fresh? 

I keep learning and never allow myself to feel that I’ve mastered something. I have the curse and blessing of getting bored very easily! SO I find myself continually seeking out ways to be inspired. I also draw inspiration from other creative mediums and try bring that inspiration back into my style.

What type of social media platforms do you use and how do you utilise them for displaying your work?

Photo 2014-06-28, 21 30 06Instagram as a main source & Vimeo for video. I utilise them to grow my personal brand and also as a great platform to get feedback. Exposure on the platform is also something that’s maximised through engagement with the relevant social media’s communities.

What is your favourite photographic accessory other than your camera or your iPhone?

My Gopro!

I live in New Zealand and there is no one I miss more than my grandfather… I ordered a photo book for his birthday and it has achieved every emotion I had wanted it to…. I dnt know when I will see my grandpa next with the boarders being closed due to corona virus … this book was able to share memories of his great grandchildren and allow him to page through them daily…. thank you studio22 for your instant communication and fixing things so I could do this from so far away and for bringing my grandpas family to him for 87th birthday… My grandfather has told me the quality is excellent and he is very impressed I am so grateful !!!

I can highly recommend Studio22. My print came out amazing. Communication from Facebook, to emails, and face-to-face has been excellent. A HUGE thank you to Yumna. You have been super professional and managed to get my print done within 1 day of payment as it was urgent. All while being in a nationwide lockdown. One very happy customer who will be using Studio22 again! Thank you!
