Kerosene is a working light.
It doesn’t perform.
It reveals.
Light with purpose, used with intent.
What Kerosene means
Kerosene stands for:
Light — the foundation of photography
Work — hands, process, standards behind the result
Warmth — atmosphere without theatrics
Character — texture, wear, honest environments
What we do
Kerosene Media makes documentary-rooted commercial photography for real work — built to make businesses look credible, consistent, and worth choosing.
About Federico
Federico Corradi is a commercial photographer based in Canterbury, working across the South Island (and beyond by request). 
He has 10+ years’ experience across New Zealand and Europe, spanning hospitality, interiors, lifestyle, product, and long-form documentary work with community and heritage organisations.
His work is defined by:
Intentional, believable light (natural or shaped)
Textured, lived-in environments
Calm, honest moments
A restrained commercial finish that still feels real
“Federico was a friendly and highly professional photographer who took my profile images for Airbnb Experiences. He communicated quickly, was always prompt, and generously shared his knowledge of the standards required for the project. The images were well framed, appropriate for the brief, and delivered promptly, allowing me to launch my style business on the platform without delay. I would highly recommend Federico for any photography project or event”
