About

I’m Hamish Mackie, founder of Howling Wolf - a Tauranga-based photographer and filmmaker specialising in real estate and architectural media. My work is about creating visuals that stand out, showcase detail, and give your property or project a clear edge.

With years of experience in property marketing, I know what it takes to grab attention. My approach is efficient, polished, and reliable - whether it’s helping an agent present a listing at its best or giving architects and builders a portfolio piece that highlights their craft.

Why Howling Wolf? Because wolves don’t blend in - they lead, they’re heard, and they command attention. That’s the impact I bring to your property, project, or brand: content that separates you from the pack.

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll usually find me outdoors, mountain biking, chasing fitness goals, or most importantly - spending time with my young family.
