From Tools to Tripods: A Northland Story

Kia ora! I'm Temepara Hita — but most people just call me Tem.

Not long ago, I was working as a builder. Then, I picked up a camera — and everything changed. What started as a creative outlet quickly turned into a passion, and one year ago, I made the leap into full-time photography.

After freelancing and working with amazing clients across the region, I founded CC Studios Limited — a media company built from the ground up, right here in Northland, just outside of Kerikeri.

Our mission is simple:
To become your go-to team for real estate marketing media.

From listing photos to drone footage, social media content, floor plans, video and more — we’re here to deliver quality work that helps your properties shine.

We’re constantly growing our skills, expanding our network, and showing up with the same work ethic that built our foundation. Follow our journey as we build something meaningful — and let’s create great media together.

Who are we?
