Hi. I started my creative life studying Fine Art at Art College.

​

Putting my degree on hold to travel the world , I went on to manage a Contemporary Art Gallery. 

​

I began my career as a Stock Photographer after having my first child. Being at home and a keen hobbyist photographer I applied, they sold and the rest is history.  

​

I remember being told when I was young ‘if you want to be successful in life, do something you love’. And it is true because what I do does not seem like work, it is something I just do and love. 

 

Shooting stock photos, I am passionate about New Zealand. My work aims to capture it’s essence. I see beauty everywhere I look.

 

I strive to capture and convey the beauty I see around me…. The perfect natural light of native flora, the iconic New Zealand scenery, the simplistic childhood, relaxed lifestyle and the culture.

 

I specialise in things that are essentially Kiwi; the vibrant Pohutakawa that speaks ‘summer’ for every Kiwi; jandals on the beach, the iconic  cabbage tree in a New Zealand landscape and the New Zealand flax, either in a landscape or woven in a background.

 

It is the little things that speaks volumes about our country. No matter where we travel, when we see these things, we think of home.​

 

My vision is to capture our place we call home; what life looks like living in New Zealand, the land of the long white cloud. Our people, our society, and our environment. Things that are important to us Kiwis.​
