About us
Who are we?
Digital Ninja - Photography & Design is a Wellington-based company created by Shannon Doyle and Mel Keith. Mel is our studio manager, and Shannon is the creative director and shoots the majority of our projects. We started out as designers and filmmakers around 10yrs ago. Not long after finishing film school, we realised that we both preferred photography and Digital Ninja was born. We soon found ourselves shooting weddings and events and absolutely loving the experience. Soon we had clients asking us if we could help with graphic design too - of course, we could! We love to get to know our clients and provide as personalised a service as possible - you are all potential new friends to us! We are proud to be based in Wellington, New Zealand, but love to travel for events too.
Shannon Doyle – Photographer & Designer
The art of photography has captured my attention since childhood. As a kid, I’d always looked at people, looking for those little ‘movie moments’ - those things you remember long after the moment has passed and that bring back all those memories. I am always looking for those special moments. I am also a really big design nerd, I love researching and designing graphics, and I can easily spend a lot of time coming up with new designs for fun.
Mel Keith – Studio Manager & Photographer
Mel Keith is a graphic designer, with many years of experience in the graphic design industry. She is also an integral part of organising our shoots and bookings. Mel is great at organising everything that makes a photography studio work, from shooting locations to organising equipment and making sure everyone is looking their best.
