Whanau is one of my favourite words in Māori and one of my favourite things about being home in New Zealand. Family is an incredibly important part of my life, and it brings me great joy to be able to look back at old photos of us to see how much we have grown and changed over the years.
A family photo shoot is designed to capture a moment in time. The moment before the babies start to walk, the moment before the kids go off to university or the tender moment with your grandparents while you still have them to hold. All moments will one day turn into memories and there's no better way to hold onto those memories than with beautiful images capturing your crazy, wonderful family as itself.
I can come to your home or most-loved family location and we will have a relaxed, documentary style photo session. If you have kids that won't sit still or teenagers who refuse to smile- don't worry, we can work with that! Let them run wild, chase them along the beach or throw them in the air. I'll be there to capture all the giggles for you to keep.
