Common Ground – Locals’ Creative Space

Kate Beauchamp – Photography

I studied photography and graphic design at South Devon College of Art and Technology at Torquay, Devon. My husband and I moved from the UK to New Zealand twenty one years ago. We spent twelve years living and working in Auckland, before we made the lifestyle move to Whitianga. Having more free time to indulge in creative pursuits, I bought my first DSLR and joined the local photographic club to make friends and to meet like-minded people. I now help run the club. 

I’m also a member of the Photographic Society of New Zealand and earlier this year I gained my Associateship. I’m passionate about all aspects of photography and love the challenge of learning new skills and techniques. This is reflected in my work which covers a wide range of genres, including landscape, wildlife, portraits and creative photography.

Words For The New Year 2024

Well, What I Tell Is Nothing,

But The Truth.

Believe It Or Not.

If This Is Not Your Cup Of Tea,

I Accept That.

But This Is Not An Opinion, Only.

It’s A Virtue, Not A Value,

Mine – I Own It.

Happy When Things Are Reasonable.

Human Like.

Fulfilling The Purpose Of Life.

No Need To Be Judged.

Never Judge Beings, Judge Doings.

I Do Not Just Exist, I Want To Contribute.

Being Committed, Trustworthy.

A Strong Link In Life.

I Do Not Falter. I Am Not Giving In Easy.

Abuse, Oppose, Not Accepted.

At Any Time.

Sometimes, Someone Using Us.

That’s Right And Wrong, Because:

Being Used, I May Want It,

I May Have Triggered It.

And So I Deserve It.

No Difficulties With Honesty.

Honesty In Life Exists

For Good Reason.

Available For Everyone..

If We Are Lucky,

We Find Friends In Life,

With Such Kind Of Attitude,

Friends Who AreTouching Our Hearts,

We Like To Belong, Wanna Be Theirs,

Enhancing Life, Never Ends.

Every Day, For Sure, Starts With The Truth,

From The Beginning.
