There’s something so special about capturing these first few weeks as a new family 🤍

Such a beautiful newborn session with these gorgeous girls and their very proud parents. Those tiny details, sleepy snuggles and quiet moments together change so quickly, which makes photographs like these all the more precious.

Maternity model needed for a shoot in Petone next week.

I have a creative idea I want to try out and need a pregnant mumma between 32 and 38 weeks to try it with. I will gift you a A3 print of the resulting artwork as a thank-you for your time.

DM me with a recent photo if you are interested

Garden magic 🌷✨

How beautiful are these two? We absolutely loved photographing these gorgeous twin girls during our recent Garden Sessions. Their beautiful dresses, the flowers, all that lush greenery, everything came together so perfectly. 💕

We have a couple of spaces still available this coming Saturday if you’d love some beautiful garden portraits of your own.

And if this weekend is a little too soon, our Spring Garden Sessions are coming up on 28th & 29th November, the garden will be looking absolutely gorgeous as we head into summer. 🌸

Send us a message if you’d like to grab one of the remaining spaces or find out more about our November sessions.

Hello from Sardinia on my 51st birthday!

In case anyone was wondering why this page has been quiet of late, I am on a long awaited trip around Europe with my husband Richard and son Toby ( who just pulled funny faces for this photo!) We are halfway through our trip and enjoying the warmth :)

If you are wanting to make a booking I have availability from August - just message me 🙂

Ciao!
Jo

And because I’m on holiday time I’m posting this a couple of days late!

Every stage of childhood holds its own kind of magic ✨

The missing teeth, the big personalities, the shy smiles, the growing independence… these are the moments that become priceless with time.

Photographing children is never about perfect behaviour, it’s about capturing who they truly are in this season of life.

Bookings are now open from late August onwards 🤍
