Editorial
All of LIVE’s editorial is written by top-rate Taranaki freelance writers, and most of our imagery comes from professional local photographers. We pride ourselves on tackling in-depth issues, conducting engaging interviews and giving our readers content they can’t get anywhere else.
LIVE’s quality paper stock and printing faithfully reproduce the work of our talented photographers and design team, presenting gorgeous layouts that represent our region.
Editorial ideas need to be submitted at least two months prior to the projected publication date.
