I have been passionate about photography ever since I got my first camera when I was just 13 years old, even before then I had always loved taking photos and took as many opportunities as I could to do so. Over the years, I have had so many amazing opportunities - Travelling around New Zealand, getting my first DLSR (Go Nikon!), winning local photography competitions, participating in a short course and currently completing a Certificate in Photography, all of which has taught me many of the things I know and implement into my work today. After stepping out of high school in 2018 I was stumped on how I should continue my photographic journey. But as 2019 quickly came around, I decided I wanted to start my very own business as a photographer. I have met so many amazing people and captured so many of their memories that they can treasure forever. I would say my style of photography is moody and natural, as I love capturing both posed and candid moments amongst mother nature! I only hope I can continue to bring happiness into others lives through the art of photography and creating special memories for my clients this following year.
