I met these two at Taylor’s Mistake for our shoot – one of my favourite spots for Christchurch maternity photos. The palette there is gorgeous, and the sunset is always soft and beautiful. The night was uncharacteristically warm, and the water was still full of swimmers at 9 o’clock. It really felt like summer had […]

Little Maddi is just about the sweetest thing. I’ve had the pleasure of photographing her mum and dad’s engagement, wedding, and her newborn photos. We caught up in Invercargill to celebrate her first birthday, and taste test the local flora of course, as kids do!

A few years back, Lauren and Andy got in touch with me about their wedding photography. Since then, it’s been the biggest privilege to document their lives, and watch their family grow. Plato family, thanks for the continued faith you place in me to capture the precious moments. I am so bloody excited to meet […]

Melissa and Jono are two of the kindest, most generous, fun-loving people you’ll find. Together they make a pretty formidable team, and a wonderful couple. And what a special day they had in rural Southland. Mr and Mrs Dennison walked out of their ceremony to the sound of Jono’s precious father’s bagpipes, and the special […]

It’s always a particular honour to photograph another photographer and their family. Rosé is the face behind Rose Wilks Photography – Poppet, and you can find her beautiful work on Facebook. I had the pleasure of updating the Mahia family’s photos one spring (this weather though) evening in Southland.

Covid may have thwarted Ash and Simon’s Fijian wedding plans but being able to celebrate with even more of their family and friends on home soil in Invercargill was surely a good Plan B. Plus, Fiji makes for a great honeymoon destination when travel opens up again! The day was relaxed, fun, and all about […]

Good things take time, and Kelly and Brenton have waited a long time to grow and meet their very own babe, and she’s almost here! I’ve known these two for a while now, and had the privilege of shooting Kelly at her sister’s wedding in recent years, and it was such a pleasure to be […]

The Pol Family’s photos are proof that winter can be the perfect time to update your family snaps – muddy puddles and all! This is a lovely little spot in St Martin’s, Christchurch. Winter colours, winter weather, and snuggly knitted jumpers – perfection!

Before I moved to Christchurch I put out a call to find some mothers who’d like their pregnancy captured – I love maternity shoots and I was keen to meet other mothers, and start networking and making friends in Canterbury. Vannessa sent me a message and we met high above Christchurch in the Port Hills […]

The titles of my blogs are always my couple’s names but I really tossed up the idea of putting Lottie’s name in there too. Cassie and Nathan just adore their wee princess – she is the most loved and celebrated wee lady, and the way she looks at her parents is pure adoration. More and […]
