Whakapae tonutia kia puta te rā, e kore e ngaro, ā, tau noa ki te moana.

​

Born and raised in beautiful Aotearoa New Zealand, my love for photography is grounded in my passion for capturing moments of connection: people to people, people to place.

 

Pūrākau - storytelling - is one of the most powerful connecting forces in the world.   As a photographer I enjoy engaging the power of storytelling; by capturing not only the subject, but also the deeper story, the magic, the heart, the emotion behind each moment to share with others.

 

Fluent in Te Reo Māori, I am passionate about Te Ao Māori, and about reclaiming our narratives and telling our own stories.

​

I absolutely love traveling and am grateful to have experienced and photographed a rich diversity of people, places, cultures (and delicious food!) around the world. 

 

Through my exhibitions both here in Aotearoa and abroad I have enjoyed sharing these stories, these moments, and these experiences with others. A recent highlight was opening our exhibition: He Kaupapa Waka - at Te Papa Tongarewa.

 

My work is my art, and I love it! Professional, friendly and easy-going, I strive to make the whole process enjoyable (yes, even for those who ‘hate being photographed’).  The best photos are always captured when everyone is relaxed and comfortable.

​

Variety is the spice of life and I'm at home in a range of diverse situations from the marae to music festivals; weddings; corporate events; theatre shows; family gatherings and portrait shoots.
