Yesterday my baby turned 7 months old. So I took him to the park, wrapped him up warm, and snapped a few photos among the falling leaves — his very first autumn.

He had no idea what was going on — just a bunch of crunchy leaves, cool breeze, and Mum always covering her face and running around with her camera.

But it was his first autumn so I had to make it special.

If you’d love some sweet autumn memories of your little one — whether it’s their first fall or first Mother’s Day — now’s the time to book.

The golden leaves won’t be around much longer!

I’ve captured so many beautiful moments of families with little ones — giggles, cuddles, tiny toes. But you know what I rarely get to see? Families with teens.

Maybe it’s because life feels busier. Maybe teens aren’t as keen to be in front of the camera. But here’s the thing: these years matter just as much.

Teenage years are full of quiet strength, big dreams, and fast changes. One moment they're kids, the next they're almost grown.

If you've got a teenager, bring them into the frame. Your teenager might not ask for photos — but one day, you’ll both be grateful you have them.

A small hand, a big gift — one autumn leaf, all the love in the world.

🍁 The rain has finally stopped, the sun is out, and autumn is still doing her best to impress! Leaves are falling fast, but there's still time to soak up the golden magic.
📸 If you're visiting Christchurch to catch the fall colours — don’t miss this last chance to get those picture-perfect memories!

Some of the sweetest moments in life are also the simplest — like a granddaughter’s laughter shared with her grandparents.

Grandma and Grandpa don’t stay long — but the photos will. Let’s freeze this sweet little reunion with a session you’ll treasure forever.

Book a relaxed, no-stress family session — let the kids do their thing, and we’ll capture the fun!
But hey, while you’re at it, don’t forget to make a bit of time just for the two of you.

You were a couple first, before the nappies and chaos came along. That part of your story still matters.

Let’s get some shots of just you two, no distractions, just love.

And hey, if parenting chaos (or the weather 🌧️) shows up — rescheduling is super easy. We get it. 👍

Bonus: Get 5% off all photo packages if you book before the end of April! 🎉

☁️ The weather isn’t always perfect for outdoor sessions — gloomy skies and rainy days are just around the corner. But don’t forget, there’s a cozy and convenient location that’s always available: your own home 🏡.

At MinChon Photography, all we need is one plain wall and a tiny bit of magic (okay fine… and our gear 😄). While we don’t have a physical studio (yet!), we’re fully equipped to create elegant, minimalist photos right in your space.

📷 Let’s make some memories without stepping into the rain 🌧

My husband came to Aotearoa chasing a PhD.
And I followed him with love.

A few years (and many flat whites) later, he’s now officially a Doctor—not the kind who writes prescriptions, but the kind who wrote a thesis thicker than our baby’s photo album :))

This photo was taken on his graduation day last year. But today, looking back, I’m still filled with pride.

If you’ve had a session with MinChon Photography, you’ve probably seen him: my behind-the-scenes hero.
Holding your jackets, making your kids laugh, being the best unpaid assistant ever. He’s been there for me, every step of the way.

Today, it’s his turn to be in the spotlight.
No props. No gear. Just him, in a gown and cap, looking proud, at our home (and slightly awkward, of course).

If you remember him from your shoot, leave a comment!
We’d both love to hear your memories

“Why are your package prices such random numbers?”
The truth is… they’re not random at all.

Each of my four packages is based on a family member’s birthday 🎂

So no, I didn’t sit down with a calculator.
I sat down with a cup of tea and my family calendar.
Much more fun that way.

💛 The lowest price? That’s me 🥲
💛 And the most expensive one? That’s my husband. (The man’s got expensive taste and an even pricier birthdate 😂)

But I wish he was born on 31 Dec tho—
Could’ve charged $2 more 😆

So nah, they’re not tidy little numbers.
But they mean something to me.

Let me know if you spot your birthday in there too 👀
