Auckland Family Photography That Actually Feels Like You
Say goodbye to awkward poses, and hello to joyful, natural moments.
Ever wish your family photos could reflect the joyful chaos, quirky smiles, and genuine connections you love most?
I totally get it—getting kids to cooperate can feel like herding cats. That’s exactly why my sessions are designed to feel more like a laid-back family adventure than a photoshoot.
Here, real beats perfect, every single time.
What It’s Really Like to Have a Relaxed Family Photo Shoot in Auckland
Unscripted, easy-going sessions that capture the real heart of your family.
Come hang out at my studio, tucked away on our gorgeous family farm. It’s not your typical photography space, it’s more like a place to chill, laugh, and actually have fun together.
Got kids who'd rather be on the move than sitting still? Perfect. The farm has plenty of space for running wild, exploring, meeting animals, and creating genuinely joyful moments you'll cherish.
Farm vibes not really your thing? All good! We can hit your favourite beach, wander around a local park, or even capture those comfy, cosy family feels right in your own home.
Forget stiff smiles and perfect poses. We’re here for the giggles, the cuddles, and all those wonderfully weird things that make your family totally yours.
““Because looking back, it’s never the big stuff that stays with you—it’s those little laughs, inside jokes, and everyday moments that you end up missing most.””
