Hi I'm Laura, and I've spent over 15 years making it your Time2Shine, from babies to business portraits, I love capturing your portraits your way, aligned and true to you.

It's so hard to choose, so why not have them all!
Baby's first year, you choose.
Monthly or Milestone
I love them all, so why not have them all?
15 years + in baby safety, 15 years + in making it an experience
Because this time, you can't get back.
I know it's hard to choose who to capture these moments,
So I'll let you in on how I choose

The style - suits your vibe & calls to you.
The Vibe - You normally gel well, you feel it!
The energy - it's like You've been bestie's for life!
The feedback - Look at the reviews, and yes I do have a 1 star, actually look at the reviews.

And then check in again, the energy, the style, the feels, is it you. Sometimes it's hard, we're selling our service and our art online, but for me, I've been doing this for 15+ years, because I love to create and make it easy, it's an experience and having my own little family, I know that' it's hard to leave the house, and to make that booking.

Butmostly, the choice's out there, there's many. Don't get overwhelmed by the choice's. lock in 3, narrow down to what calls to you. Once you start looking, the algorithm shows you more, so it's a hard field, and I feel you. I see us all pop up and just know,

whoever you choose.
Your baby will have the most beautiful portraits,
Because it's your precious little baby,
so who you choose, doesn't matter
Just don't get caught in the trap where too many options leaves you not booking. Because you deserve those beautiful baby portraits, however old your babe is šŸ„°

15 years and still I love what I do,
Capturing my own little dude,
Pure Bliss. Life goes fast, you know and next minute,
They're
FOUR in 12 days,
Thank you to you guys,
Because, I watched many families, businesses, lose sight of what's important during these years,
Honoured to be his Mum, and I tell him, I'm proud to be your mum.
Portraits, are not just photo's.
They feel loved, They feel seen,
In my 15 years, you know what I always aim for.
Happy kids, first and foremost.
Because a happy kid, is a happy parent/caregiver/grandparent
If there's a time, it's not so happy, I ask the kids, what kind of pose they'd like to do and show them a couple,
Silly Laura,
Reminding myself, that we are all just a little silly at times,
It's hard showing up to do pretty pictures,
Expectations are high all round,
But not for me,
My only expectation, is to make it easy, beatuiful and an experience YOU DO want to remember
Because it should be a happy joyful experience
Filled with love
Kids are kids,
Camera's now take 100000000s of photo's without long time developing, a kuna matata my friend,
We got this,
Capture the funny, the raw the messy, be in the camera, show them the fun in it, jump up, jump down, spin around,
Make the memories,
You'll never regret it.

Not just human baby's but your fur baby's too.
We love making it Your Time2Shine, whether portraits, or beautiful 3D life casting keepsake's. The experience, the moments together.
It's always an honour and if you need us be sure to head to my website, it's the best way to get in touch

It's the experience, time and time again, for me it's always and has been about the experience.
You can capture your own photo,s but professional portraits, captured by someone who has honed in on their skills, spent years to make sure this space is safe, cosy and inviting, that your sweet little bundle is cared for, loved and feeling 100% safe.
So what's different about Time2Shine than the rest?
Nothing, really, we're all the same in different ways,
How I book my own, wherever I go,
Is if we gel, the right vibe, the right feels,
If I feel called, and I mean if I have that off feeling, I'm out,
But love all over me, shower me with all the service,
Im there, in a heartbeat
My child, loves cuddles, let's do cuddle portraits, Mum and me, let's do that, outside, easy, inside, even easier,
Whatever your feels, I'm here for it,
Tagged up street art? I got you,
Cosy in home portrait, I got you.
Cosy in studio session, I got you too.
Want a little pampering? I got you and so too does my Professional Hair and Make-up Team.

Whatever the way, no matter the day, I love making it your time2shine. So please don't think you need baby to be sleeping, or this or that, I got your back.

Booking is easier via my online system, I'm a mum, wife, business lady, I love nature, I love doing what I do, but I am human and I love being out with my family and replying isn't always easy, when Mr almost four wants my attention and I don't do halfies, no half ass energy with him or you. I got you.

So let's chat, or if you want to book check my dates, but if it's not their flick a message through my website, it'll reach me easier than facebook - fb doesn't always send bells as it's not on my phone, one way I ensure I am present , with my family and with you

Also if you got this far, thank you, I love you guys!
I also offer non-kid portraits, boudior, brands and we are planning a day for the Spring, so be sure to keep a look out, girls day out at Time2Shine, coming right up

Are you ready for this?
Time2Shine take over,
Because I'm back baby,
Although I've never really left ;)

Living a designed life,
I came across this book years ago, the best life, and it really opened my eyes, that and I was already on a self development journey, soon realised is a life long journey when you accept it.

You've wittnessed the 15 years here, I started this beautiful space in 2011, during the Chch Eq's,thousands of aftershocks rattled our city, and I captured a lot of broken and beautiful buildings and people, and that's when I new it wasn't about just the photo's it's about the human connection, enjoying that experience whatever it may be.

Becoming this person, I'm excited to offer my 2-day in person aligned immersion, the tools, the techinqiues, the shattering the limiting beliefs, stepping and tapping into the YOU, because every stage of life, we have to release the old, sometimes stuck energy, one foot in one foot out, and that sense of knowing you have something to shift, remove or let go, a pattern, the self doubt, the overwhelm of shoulds and coulds, but maybe it's actually pretty easy?

I've done the mihi,
Lived and still breathe it,
BEcause, I do not claim to be perfect to offer this,
Nor do you have to be, to show up,
For you.
Man this life I've designed, it's pretty sweet,
But I've shed a lot of tears, and fears,
And I know this journey,
I'll shed more, as I continue walking this life, that I get to by Design
The difference,
The tools, in my toolbelt, to guide and help with life experiences that don't feel aligned, to help align time and time again,
But this weekend, two days, we will do the mihi together,
With love and rawness, We open, release and step into
All that you know you are
All that your deepest heart knows you are suppose to be
But again,
YOU have to take this call,
Hello, It's your time2shine, are you ready?

And if your not ready? That's okay, take the leap anyway, because sometimes, we're never quite ready, and that's okay, this is a place that you'll leave feeling empowered and believing in YOU, because just like a baby learning to walk, it takes a little repitition to start something, and this two days, I'm meeting you where you are at, and this space you'll leave aligned with the YOU, that you are.

Magical little moments, that we get to keep in our hearts forever
Man I love being able to capture the sweetness, the tiny little face's, But mostly I love seeing the parents, relaxed, enjoying those sweetlittle but BIG moments, that they will keep in their hearts forever and ever and ever, I know this, I've been there.
You forget the crying, the late nights, the teething,
But you never ever forget these moments

Living your best life, but stuck? Maybe it could be better? Maybe tomorrow, or next monday you'll figure that thing out?...

Living your best life, but stuck?
Maybe it could be better?
Maybe tomorrow, or next monday you'll figure that thing out?
Not sure the path you need?
Maybe lack of clarity on where to next?
You notice the patterns but they're hard to break?
This coming weekend, join me and 5 others on unlocking those barriers, indetify the beliefs and blocks that keep you back.
Take home the tools, the completed workbook that sets out those aligned, inspired actionable goals, I've been there, I use this on repeat for each stage, phase, goal in my life, manifestation, or alignment. Being in business for 15 years, through earthquakes, world pandemic's, lock down's and motherhood, while growing through the ever long journey of personal growth, living my best life BY design
Our own design, we get to create our life, I chose to design mine.
And continue to align myself to that life, I get to live.
the 9 to 5 grind, I do the 24/7 enjoyment of life lived differently,
you don't have to do that to join me,
You come as you are, where you are,
this if for those that want that actual change,
To have that clarity in business, life wherever it may be, I'll met you where you are at, and you will get to too

2 day, in person christchurch immersion,
Spot the blocks, tap out the old, rewire the new and set aligned inspired goals, and tapping into the knowing, you are right where you need to be, leaving Aligned in the Design of the life you get to create.

This is my 15+ Years, workbook, hands on tools that you get to leave with. I've done the work and you get to enjoy the path, that most are afraid to walk, but with love and guidance, I'm here for it, and I know if you are still reading, you are too.

Release the thought that you are not worthy, because this, this is the stuff that changed my life, time and time again, payment plan available, because investing in yourself is priceless and you shouldn't miss out - 2 days, stepping into YOU

Hey friends!
Hot minute for my other love
Time2Shine Wellness Studio
I'm hosting our two-day in person immersion NEXT weekend,
beyond excited for this.
Who's this for?
Anyone that's feeling stuck,
Feeling in a loop,
can't break the pattern
Or you see it but you've been working hard and nothings chaning?
Or maybe they're some "big" goals and it's just been cat and mouse?
Business, health or life, whatever it is, I've probably been there or the tools I've used can help YOU get there,
This isn't a sit and listen
This is a full on hands on, raw real event.
Bookwork, Tapping, Goal setting, Aligning and realigning,
The hard questions, the raw real questions
This is not for the faint hearted
This is for the ones who want change
who know there's something more
who wants to take that next step
who trust in the process or are ready to trust or open up to trusting
You do not have to have it all together
or even figured out
it's a space where you're surrounded by love, honesty and compassion but also that fire up your bum too that is YOU not because you have to but because
That spark is BACK
so I've got 4 spaces,
one of them is for you
If you dare
Don't let the price-tag fool you,
YOU ARE WORTH IT
Payment plans are available, so too is creditcard
No you are deserving
We are real humans in the room and with tools that will leave you feeling confident in your next steps,
Empowered to take action, if not already taking that inspired ALIGNED action during the immersion,
Sparked up and On Fire to take on anything that stands in your way,
Along with the tools to help you continue on after our immersed two days together.

Ready to get aligned ?
Ready to smash your goals
Break through barriers and become the YOU
You are meant to be?
No playing small, unless that's what YOU TRULY want
www.time2shine.net.nz/aligned

Your host with the most, Me (Laura)
Can't wait to see you, and hold space for you,
And if you're wondering,
is this for me?
Sit for a moment and see,
does this call to you?
Does a weekend, exploring your belief systems and whats holding you back, breaking those beliefs and stepping into your true self, knowing YOU have YOUR back sounds too good to miss, then you know what to do.
15+ years, trained by Tony Robbins, Kathrin Zenkia and our very own Karen Degen, you know I have the master tools to guide you and make it YOUR time2shine baby

Take that leap
I'm here for you
