Hi, I’m Racheal — and I’m so glad you’re here.

A Little About Me

With over 15 years behind the lens, and more than 8 years specialising in maternity and newborn photography, I bring both experience and a deep sense of care to every session.

My journey began capturing the breathtaking landscapes of New Zealand. When life on the farm kept me closer to home, I discovered something even more meaningful — photographing children.

I fell in love with their laughter, their energy, and those fleeting, genuine moments that can never be recreated.

That passion naturally grew into maternity and newborn photography — and it’s here that I truly found my calling.

Today, I specialise in capturing the full story of your family. From maternity and newborn sessions, to milestones from 3 months and beyond, through to beautifully styled family portraits — every session is designed to reflect your connection, your story, and your love.

I’m an internationally multi-award-winning photographer, a proud mum to five incredible children, and a grandmother to five beautiful grandchildren.

Years spent on the farm shaped the way I work — with patience, calm, and gentle care. My sessions are relaxed, baby-led, and designed to make you feel completely at ease.

Because the truth is — these moments don’t last.

My passion is to preserve them for you, creating timeless, heartfelt images your family will treasure for generations.

Based in Drury, South Auckland, I photograph families across Auckland and beyond.

I would love to create something beautiful for you.
