Amanda Ritchie Photography Portrait and Wedding Photographer - New Plymouth based but happy to travel. Let’s create something truly special together.

Wedding and Portrait Photographer - New Plymouth
I specialise in capturing the beauty of weddings, the glow of maternity, the tenderness of newborns, and the joy of family. My photography style is warm, natural, and timeless, with a relaxed, friendly approach that makes every session feel effortless. I love capturing genuine emotion to create images that feel authentic and full of life. Whether in

my cosy home studio or out on location, I focus on storytelling, preserving fleeting moments, loving connections, and the unique essence of each family.

This sweet baby girl was just the calmest little soul.

So much love in every moment, such a beautiful session to be part of - it's always an honour to finally meet and photography the baby after photographing the bump photos too.

Thank you so much for choosing me to capture these early memories for your family xx

Something a little different for me, I recently photographed a friend’s son to create his modelling portfolio.

He was an absolute natural in front of the camera, slipping into poses like he’s been doing it for years. I’ve got a feeling his modelling journey is only just beginning. Watch out world… this face won’t stay a secret for long!

I had the sweetest session with this gorgeous 10 week old.

I know lots of mums worry that once baby is past the newborn stage, the chance for those dreamy photos is gone, but honestly, it’s never too late to capture beautiful moments.

They’re more alert, full of expression, and still absolutely adorable… and here’s the proof.

Thank you for choosing me to capture these moments xx

I had the honour of capturing this little cowboy as a newborn - now he's turned one and he showed up ready for his cowboy themed cake smash. Hat on, cake in the arena, and the cheekiest determination.

His big brother even jumped in for a few bites, which made it all even sweeter.

After cake and a quick ride on his "horse" he finished the fun with a warm splash in the tub, the perfect end to a wild little first‑birthday rodeo.

Thank you for your support, it's been a pleasure capturing these memories for you!

Sneak peek from a recent maternity session at the beach on a chilly winter's evening!

They were so sweet together, snuggling up, taking in these last quiet moments before life shifts into something brand new.

Capturing a couple right on the edge of becoming parents always feels special xx

Thank you for choosing me to capture these memories.
