Let’s capture something beautiful

This little space is where my love for photography and storytelling comes to life. What began with me capturing sweet moments of my own babies at home has grown into something truly special—documenting the real, beautiful, in-between moments for families, couples, and newborns across Timaru and the wider South Canterbury region.

I specialize in:

  • Newborn photography – those soft snuggles and tiny details you never want to forget.

  • Family photography – the laughter, the chaos, the love.

  • Couples photography – capturing your connection, whether it’s a quiet moment or a joyful celebration.

Whether you're welcoming a new baby, gathering the family, or celebrating your love story, I’m here for it—camera in hand, ready to capture your memories.

Take your time, have a scroll, and if it feels like we’d be a good fit, I’d love to hear from you.
