I am a Lifestyle Photographer with a passion for capturing families, expecting mothers and babies - with authenticity and connection.

I am a natural light, on location photographer.  Together we will choose the perfect location for your session, making the most of this beautiful country that we get to call home. Sessions are held 1-1.5 hours before sunset or at sunrise to capture the beautiful warm light that you see in my gallery.  Newborn sessions are held at my home studio in Red Beach 30 minutes north of Auckland CBD. We can also do your newborn session in your home for an additional fee.

Newborn sessions typically take place within the first two weeks of birth. However any time during the newborn stage is absolutely beautiful to capture, so if life comes up or things don’t quite go as expected, please let me know as we can rearrange your date to suit you. Date changes are of course dependant on availability in my schedule however from one Mum to another, I will do my best to make your ideal session date work for you.

The outfits you wear for your session have a huge impact on your final gallery. All of my clients have immediate access to my prep and style guide, and I work closely with you throughout the styling process during our zoom consult. I also have a capsule client wardrobe that you’re welcome to borrow from, you can view options in my ‘Client Wardrobe’ highlight in Instagram. The use of client wardrobe items are included in your session fee.

You will receive a proof gallery of approximately 50-100 lightly edited images two weeks after your session. This is when you select your favourite images that will then be hand edited and sent to you after two weeks as your final gallery for download. The number of images you choose is completely up to you and your budget. For example - if you start on a package with ten images, you are welcome to upgrade at this stage.

You will receive your proof gallery 2 weeks after your session date. Your final hand edited high resolution gallery will be sent to you 2 weeks after you've picked the images that you would like to keep.

Ahead of our session, I will ask for info about your family members and dynamic – so we can best capture your real family story, personalities and connection on the day.  After the session I will review each image and hand select the images that best capture your family for your proof gallery - these are the best images (approx 50-100 images) for you to then select from. I will then do a final hand edit on each of your favourite images that you choose to keep.

Mini sessions are not something that I offer as they do not allow me time to capture your real and authentic connections, like I can in a full session.

Session fees begin at $350, packages begin at $600 - the average client spends $1500-$2500
