Discover Grant Udy's Inspiring Photography Journey

Grant moved to the picturesque Marlborough region in 2007, relocating from the lush landscapes of Northland. This stunning area offers breathtaking scenery, wonderful bush walks that meander through vibrant flora, and the chance to explore the remarkable Marlborough Sounds, known for their tranquil waters and unique wildlife. By profession, Grant works in the wine industry, an environment that greatly inspired him to embark on his photography journey. He began capturing images with basic point-and-shoot cameras, eventually transitioning to his mobile phone as its technology continued to improve and evolve. In late 2019, he made the significant step of purchasing a Sony A6100 mirrorless camera, which opened up a world of new photography opportunities and challenges, pushing him to elevate his craft. To further enhance his skills, Grant dedicated time to complete a variety of online photography courses through LinkedIn Learning and also joined the local Marlborough Camera Club to connect with fellow photography enthusiasts. His dedication and hard work have enabled him to rise impressively from C grade to A grade in just two years. Today, Grant passionately focuses on capturing stunning landscapes, beautiful seascapes, and intricate macro photography, regularly visiting his favorite locations to document the ever-changing, breathtaking beauty of nature.
