Meet Tahi.
Founder, Director, Photographer, Videographer, Editor, Ad Manager — I do it all.
What started off as a side venture to cover rent whilst working as an electrician, has become the Timeless Creative I live and breathe today, and here’s the story.
Photography started off as a hobby for me way back in 2016 at the age of 14 when I figured out you could put a regular camera in a fibreglass housing and take it into the surf and capture the ocean’s power. So the saving began. Birthday money, mowing lawns, washing cars, whatever I could manage to make $10 doing. I did it, I saved $2500 and got the housing — my lifelong career in my hands, so I thought.
As much as I regret letting this hobby fizzle out, like many others, life kept moving: school, other interests, getting my license, my electrical apprenticeship. I sold my camera and housing and bought a set of DJ decks to start the new “career”.
Fast forward 5 years, a few failed side hustles and many new hobbies later, I bought another camera to do content for my final side hustle: a clothing brand. $10,000 worth of inventory and a lot of time invested, only to be undone by a trademark taken out a week before I started the process of getting my own. No stone unturned, no progress made.
Until it clicked. Everything I had learnt trying to start numerous businesses all at once came together. I picked up the camera, and then my phone. First client landed, the rest is history.
That’s my story. If you’d like to be part of the next chapter, get in touch about your project.
