One of my favourite photos of our girls. Madeline was just 6 days old. I am so glad I took the time to take this photo, it is now framed and on the wall in our girls room. I love how it has captured the beginning of a beautiful relationship our two girls have together as sisters. .

Hi!

 I love what I do and I love connecting with new mums and mums to be.

 My mission is to bring joy through my photography to wonderful women who have taken the plunge to bring new life into this world.

 I believe taking the time and effort to have photos taken will be a very rewarding and meaningful experience. You will capture the fleeting moments of being a mum with a baby in a way that preserves the most incredible thing you have ever done.  

 I am a wife, and mother of two daughters and know all too well how fleeting the early days with our newborn babies are and how precious it is to look back at the photos of them so fresh and new to the world. I know how exhausting the early days can be without much sleep, not to mention our changing hormones and recovering bodies. This is why I strive to make this experience stress free and relaxing for you.  A time when you really just enjoy how adorable your baby is while I take care of everything.

Apart from my business and family I love summer, sunshine and time at the beach.  I crave for the summer holidays and spending time together as a family exploring and/or camping in different parts of NZ with our friends and their children.  We have a pretty stunning country and I want our kids to see and enjoy it.

Photography has been a huge interest of mine for most of my life and I have been lucky enough to have been a professional photographer for many years now.  This began with a ten year career as a photographer in the Air Force where I was photographing all sorts of things both in NZ and around the world.  It was a great job but after the arrival of my first child my perspective of life changed and I knew it was time to slow down.  At least that was the plan.  But - as a lot of creative’s can probably relate - there was just no putting down my camera.  I soon discovered my passion for newborn and child photography.  It’s a huge contrast to my previous work and I love everything about it.  It gives me a creative outlet, I get to chat with other Mums, and I get to carefully pose their gorgeous babies to capture the most beautiful photos that I know will be cherished for a lifetime.

 If you are interested in investing in beautiful maternity and newborn photography I would love to chat.  Simply send me a message and I will get in touch.  You are also welcome to come visit the studio and chat in person if you would like.  This is a great way to really get an appreciation for what we can create.
