I am finally in a position where I can now offer these gorgeous Fresh 48 Sessions to families around the Manawatu. Pregnancy, birth, becoming a mother and meeting your child for the first time are all things I feel so passionate about so as you can imagine I am very excited! Pregnancy for starters is such as emotional journey, you experience just how fragile life is! You dream about this little life inside of you and what they will look like, what kind of person they will be and how they are going to change your life. It is so incredible and even though at the time, it feels like it is taking To View More >>

I was lucky enough to be able to photograph this stunning Mama and her family last week. Little did we know that she would be having her baby the next day! How amazing was that for timing. <3 I already think capturing pregnancy is incredibly important and so beautiful, but getting to capture little Nashs very last day as an only child warms my heart. I love that I got to photograph all these precious moments for Nash, the love, the cuddles, the fun! Just a little reminder that he is loved, very very much! This is one of the locations I will be using in my Mothers Day Mini sessions, it To View More >>

These gorgeous girls were over from Melbourne to say goodbye to a very special lady. Before they flew home again we scheduled in a session to stop time even just for a moment and capture some beautiful memories. I have to say I am in awe of the beautiful light and nature I get to work with around Palmerston North and the Manawatu, I'm absolutely loving it! I can't wait to find more hidden little gems like this that only truly show themselves when the sun says so <3 To View More >>

I have to say, I LOVE LOVE LOVE doing what I do. I am so grateful for each and every person I get to photograph. I even get a little emotional looking at the moments we have created together; knowing how special they are and how they are going to become more special with time. A mama loving on her baby, well that just gets me in the feels, every.single.time! Little Eli is baby boy number two for this Mama who also happens to be my beautiful cousin. He is so yummy and very loved. His adventure is just beginning and its very exciting! I can't wait to watch him grow! xxx To View More >>
