Posed or candids?

I often have clients who don’t want rigid poses and would prefer candid moments. I do both, so you’ll have a variety of images to choose from.

I capture the little dances your kids do, the love they share with their grandparents, and all the moments in between!

If you’re wanting photos, I’m currently taking bookings, and there are no additional fees for extended families!

Hi everyone!

Starting from March, I’ll be introducing ONE “pay as you can” session each month.

This will be a 20-minute mini session, valued at $125.
Transport is included within 20km of West Auckland.

Payment doesn’t have to be money but money is accepted — I’m open to trades as well, such as:

⭐️Nail, hair, or beauty appointments
⭐️Cleaning services
⭐️Landscaping
⭐️Food
⭐️Design or artwork
⭐️Or something else you’d like to offer

This will be considered on a case-by-case basis.

If this has piqued your interest to you, DM me to claim the March Spot!

🌸 新年快乐, 万事如意! 🌸

🏮Happy Chinese New Year, may all your wishes come true!🏮

I’ve wanted to do a Chinese New Year photoshoot for the longest time! Thank you Madeline and family for making this happen. 🫶🏻

I wanted to showcase and celebrate a little piece of my culture through photography, as I’ve celebrated Chinese New Year for as long as I can remember.

When you’re a kid, you don’t realise how special it is…and suddenly you’re miles away from home and family, missing the traditions that raised you.

Whether you celebrate Chinese New Year or not, if you’re far from home and missing your family too, I’m with you.

♥️ Maddie

Sometimes kids need a little bit more time to warm up, and that is totally okay!

Knowing what makes your little one giggle or smile can be all it takes to bring them out of their shell. Within a few minutes Arlo here was feeling more confident around the camera and just being in the moment having fun.

When you book a session with me, you will receive some tips and tricks on how to do just that!

Ready to book your photoshoot? ☺️

Had a private session and I had so much fun with the Lee family!

Lots of ‘I can’t believe this is my job’ moments. 🤭
From seeing returning clients to feeding alpacas and watching their little one grow, I’m thankful in so many ways! 🥰
