Amazing to think it was over 20 years since the ‘The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King’ premiere in 2003, when over a 100,000 fans packed the streets. Wellington City was buzzing again on Saturday with the same energy for the Australasian premiere of Avatar: Fire and Ash. I was lucky enough to photograph the red carpet back then and got to do the same again this time for 20th Century Studios and The Walt Disney Company, capturing director James Cameron and all the talented cast and crew- this time with a flaming pyrotechnic backdrop. Great to see Wellington back in celebration mode!
