Scene Festival 2025 🎉
Coffee catch-up in Ponsonby followed by a relaxed photo walk

About the event

Join me for a Saturday morning Coffee Catch-Up & Photo Walk in Ponsonby, Auckland!

This is a relaxed get-together for photographers and creatives of all ages and skill levels. There won’t be any formal teaching—just a chance to enjoy coffee, take photos, and connect with others in the local photography community.

Whether you’re brand new to photography and keen to meet like-minded people, or simply want to hang out with others who share your passion, this is the perfect way to spend your Saturday morning.
