Photography, video and editing for small and medium businesses across Christchurch — built around a story worth telling, delivered on a rhythm you can actually keep up with.
Photography, videography and editing under one flexible plan — built around the story of your business, not a generic template.
Monthly, story-led content — photos, videos and reels tailored to your brand and the people behind it.
Team portraits, workplace and product photography. Project-based, from $200/hour depending on scope.
Documentary-style case studies and short-form video, shot and edited for how people actually watch.
What to post, how often, and why — a simple, sustainable plan built around your goals. Included in Growth.
Have the footage but not the time? Professional editing, delivered ready for any platform.
One flexible plan, no separate quotes each month. Your hours roll over and can be topped up anytime.
A one-off project, priced around its scope — or an ongoing plan built on content hours, so you always know what you're getting each quarter.
For a single, well-defined project — a brand film, a launch shoot, a case study — priced to match the scope, not squeezed into a package.
24 content hours per quarter, for businesses posting steadily without needing content every week.
48 content hours per quarter, plus a simple content plan, for businesses that want a steady, visible presence.
Each quarter you get a set number of hours to spend however your business needs. What a job costs in hours depends on its complexity — here's roughly what to expect:
A simple workplace or product photography session
A video session — raw footage, no editing
An edited short-form video or reel
Event photography or videography

Curtin Painters & Decorators (CPD) needed a content foundation that matched the quality of their craftsmanship — a way to show, not just tell, prospective clients what sets their work apart. We produced a documentary-style case study video from a real project, a full photo library, and a set of short-form reels for social.
The centrepiece was the French Farm Estate project in Akaroa — a job that gave CPD's process, craft and attention to detail room to actually show.
Third Space came to ILLI Studio wanting content that reflected the calm, considered feeling of the practice itself — not the fast, high-energy style most fitness content defaults to. We've been building a steady library of photography and video, from everyday studio moments to content supporting a new course launch.
From first conversation to delivered content, kept straightforward so you can focus on running your business.
We learn about your business, goals and content needs, and help you pick the right plan.
We get to know your tone, visual style and audience — so every piece fits without you re-explaining it each time.
Send us what you need. We shoot, edit and deliver. Hours are used based on the job's complexity.
An extension of your marketing — consistent, story-led content, without the back-and-forth.
Julia started ILLI Studio in Christchurch out of a simple belief: small businesses deserve content that actually tells their story, not just fills a feed. She leads every project personally, and works alongside a growing team of photographers, videographers and editors as ILLI Studio takes on more work — so you always have one person who knows your business, backed by the right people to deliver it well.
