Grant Sheehan: Light, Ghosts & Dreams

Portrait on Grant Sheehan, a remarkable photographer whose career and creative curiosity took him across Aotearoa New Zealand and all over the globe.

"For more than four decades, Wellington-based photographer Grant Sheehan has made his way in the world through images. Where many photographers find longevity in laser-focused speciality, he is one of the few that has managed to thrive by expanding his style ever wider. Spinning yarns as though to an acquaintance on the neighbouring barstool, Sheehan recounts his own exceptional career in this charming documentary.

"A prolific creative, the photographer has published more than 24 books, as well as having work in magazines, museums, and exhibitions around the globe. He may not have the name recognition of those in the pantheon of great New Zealand photographers, but there’s a good chance many Kiwis have at some point enjoyed the photos of Grant Sheehan without realising it."
