What People Are Saying

 

"Kevin Bills has arranged our photography and DVD requirements for the last five years. This has involved him mainly working at our annual Staff Christmas Party and annual Sales & Marketing Conference, in various towns around New Zealand."

"We have always found Kevin to be professional at all times, and his easy going nature and unobtrusive style ensure that he never gets in the way at any function. The quality of his photography and DVD is always extremely high, and his work is always well presented."

"As a result of the above, we would not hesitate in recommending Kevin to other parties."

Lyn Butler,
Roche Products Ltd


"We had Kevin Bills take some photos for use on our web site. We did not give him very specific instructions and just let him go. We were really pleased with the results, the photos look great. Kevin was fantastic to deal with and such a professional in his field."

Kim Finlayson
Brookfields Park Golf Course


"Kevin has provided photography services for us on many occasions, often at short notice. The work we require him to do is varied and often in different environments and context. This could be an awards ceremony or events activity in which we are participating."

"Kevin is personable and easy to work with and is great at capturing the essence of the moment in terms of the eventual use of the photograph as sometimes we may use these for external publicity purposes. I would not hesitate in recommending his work."

Gael McKechnie

We have always found Kevin very professional and always provides us with great images."

Selwyn Yorke

"We are proud to be amoung the first businesses to utilise Kevins talents. A lot of our projects in marketing have been, shall we say, a little left wing, and Kevin has not only put our concepts into photo form, but has also been a contributor of original ideas."

Wendy

"I have worked with Kevin Bills on a number of projects over a number of years. The great thing about working with Kevin, not only is he 110% committed to providing our Company with a range of superb photographic images, he is a great guy to be involved in the project. Our Company’s focus is marketing and developing products for agriculture, both in New Zealand and globally. It’s nice to work with professionals who have a background knowledge and feel for the industry. Kevin is one of them.

I’m proud to be associated with Kevin Bills and I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone serious about capturing photographic images for commercial work."

"We engaged Kevin Bills to take some photos of the Manawatu region earlier this year. Kevin showed great creativity and ability to think about our requirements, suggesting shots that we hadn’t even considered. We now have a good portfolio of scenes around the wider Manawatu region that are an essential resource for our own staff and for some of our member businesses. Kevin’s presentation of these shots on a DVD with background music was also a stunning bonus for us and we have used this DVD to good effect when meeting visitors to our region."

Dear Kevin

I realise I have verbalised my appreciation of your work at covering our Central Districts Field Days over the years, but not actually got around to formalising this – well after five years it is long overdue!

Since 2000 you have excelled in capturing the various components that make up our diverse CD Field Days brilliantly. You have interpreted our requirements from the brief given to you prior to each year's event and consistently produced photographs that we are able to use very effectively in our marketing campaigns.Our inaugural ‘Rural Prize Package' was a great success this year partly due to the support of the professional photography that you provided for us.

Kevin please ensure that you block out your diary for Saturday the 19 th of March 2005 to cover next years Saturday component of CD Field Days.

Kind regards
Corran John
General Manager
Central Districts Field Days

"It was important to both of us that our wedding photographer be able to deliver outstanding results – on time and within budget. Kevin Bills Photography came highly recommended to us and we were not disappointed. When we decided on Aorangi Marae as the venue for our wedding, we wanted a photographer who would be able to capture the special qualities of our past, the people and the wedding itself with a minimum of fuss and bother.

Kevin’s hands-on approach to the wedding day shoot was outstanding. With two pre-wedding consultations (including one at the Marae) we knew that at the very least he would be well organised and prepared for the big day. The wedding shoot itself was outstandingly well executed – not only did the quality of the photos exceed our initial expectations, but the manner in which Kevin went about shooting the day ensured that both our guests and ourselves could simply celebrate and enjoy the occasion.

With an appreciation of the significance of the venue and requirements, Kevin and his colleague Sarah went about capturing what we both agree to be truly stunning images of a fantastic morning, afternoon and evening. The post-wedding arrangements couldn’t have run any smoother than they did, with copies of an incredible DVD arriving first containing a compilation of all of the wedding photos, and then of course the wedding album itself. So many people have commented on ‘our photographer’ and how good he was on the day, and also of course the way Kevin captured so many special parts of our culture and wedding day.

We thank Kevin and Sarah for their outstanding efforts, superb expertise and professional manner throughout the entire process and highly recommend their services to anyone who appreciates a high quality finished product, friendly and professional service and special memories captured to perfection."

Meihana and Ilane Durie


"Just a note to thank you for the fantastic job you did photographing our wedding. You were very professional but somehow made it so much fun. The photos are fabulous. Every shot is different and the presentation of the album is like nothing else I have seen. I will have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone that needs a top class photographer. Thank you for making our day even more special."

Kind Regards

Hi Kevin

We just wanted to finally say a huge thank you for the fantastic job you made of our wedding photos and the beautiful album you had carefully laid out for us.  We really appreciated your quick work and were so excited when our album was ready for us to take back to the UK within those few weeks. 

We love looking at our album as it brings back so many memories of our special day and everyone we have shown here in London absolutely loves the album, and thinks your work is fantastic.

Kind Regards,
Maree & Daniel Brown


"Kevin, just wanted you to know that we have seen heaps of wedding photos recently, being the wedding season and all, and one comment we had is that our photos are far superior to the rest. And I have to agree. Most people seem to be really disappointed with theirs, but Ken and I just love ours, we’ve had so many wonderful comments, one woman even broke down into tears when she saw them, she thought they were that beautiful.

We are really happy with them and couldn’t have asked for a better job. I want to show them off to everyone. Thanks Kevin, awesome job."

Steff and Ken Norman 


Dear Kevin,

We would just like to thank you formally for being such a fantastically professional and friendly part of our wedding day. We had an amazing day, and are still reliving every moment and each new detail through our beautifully presented wedding album.

The meetings beforehand were totally relaxed, and we felt comfortable expressing the ideas that we had, however, we were also totally confident with putting our trust in your judgement, creativity and expertise.

So many people have commented on the fabulous job that you did with our wedding album, but more importantly, in our minds, how friendly and organised you were on the day. You were very obliging with family and friends also taking pictures, and we felt as if you weren't just there to record our day on film as a job, but actually recognised how vital your role was in allowing our guests to make the most of the day also.

We regard you with the highest of praise as a wedding photographer, and have no problems with recommending you to our friends and family.

With sincere gratitude,
Michael and Tash Ward


"Thanks so much for the fantastic job you made of our photos and the gorgeous rimu album. We are thrilled with every single picture - the setting, the colour, the light - it's just perfect. We really appreciated your attitude towards the day - highly professional and in keeping with the timetable, yet relaxed and having a good time. We never got tired of smiling! We will treasure the photos for a lifetime. So many people have commented on them and we think we were pretty damn lucky to have you as our photographer. We'd recommend you to anyone."

Aaron & Sarah Sherriff


"We are extremely impressed with the wedding album Kevin. Mickey and myself cannot stop looking at it. It is well put together. Everyone we have shown here in California absolutely love the album, and think your work is fantastic. Thank you."
