Family portraits, anywhere in New Zealand.

Remember forever

In years to come your children will cherish the portraits that picture you with them. These become family heirlooms. I'm sure you've taken hundreds of photos of the kids but do you feature with them? Probably not if you're always behind the camera. I have over 25 years of experience putting people at ease in front of my camera. Portrait sessions are not left to chance. We'll pre-plan your session covering everything from location choice to clothing. This results in beautiful family portraits that look natural and capture true emotions and relationships. Sessions take place either at your home or a beautiful outdoor location that holds a special place in your heart. Everyone enjoys a relaxing and fun time when they experience a portrait session with me. Pets are welcome too! My ultimate purpose is to create classically beautiful photographic artworks for the spaces you inhabit.

"... you have an amazing God given gift. These aren't just photos but you have so caught the spirit of the children and of the family. I don't think I have seen this very often in photography. Go.. grow... be blessed and be a blessing as you share your gift."

- Andrea Osborn

3 easy steps to beautiful portraits

1. A phone call to plan your portraits.

2. Meet on location for the 1hr photography session.

3. Order your portraits soon afterwards from the comfort of your home.

Unlike most photographers, I won't dump a bunch of digital files on you and expect you'll know what to do with them. Finding a good printer or framer isn't easy. The colour, quality and longevity of materials will disappoint.

I make your life easy and take care of everything for you. Your favourite images will be expertly produced and framed by Queensberry, New Zealand's top photographic lab. Then they will be delivered to your home, ready to hang on the wall. You may choose to invest in one or more portraits and you don't have to decide until you've seen the results.

There's a $200 session fee to facilitate the image creation process. Travel fees may apply to some destinations. Selected portraits are an additional investment starting from $250 for an archival 10x8 inch print. Most families choose to invest between $900 to $2500 on several portraits at various sizes. Albums are available too.
