Oh Hey...

I'm Renee, thank you for stopping by

I’m a Christchurch newborn photographer with a love for dreamy natural light, timeless imagery and those quiet, tender moments that happen when families simply slow down and enjoy being together.

I’m a mum to two young adult children and recently became a very proud Nana. My grandson completely stole my heart and it’s so exciting that another little one is on the way soon. Watching this new generation of our family grow has reminded me just how quickly the seasons of life pass, and how important it is to capture these moments before they change.

With over a decade of experience photographing Christchurch families, I specialise in maternity, newborn and family photography. Working with newborns requires patience, care and a calm environment, and your baby’s comfort and safety are always my top priority.

My sessions are relaxed and baby-led, allowing plenty of time for feeding, settling and cuddles if needed. Whether in my cosy Christchurch studio, in your home, or outdoors at a beautiful Canterbury location, my goal is always the same — to create natural, timeless images that feel genuine and full of connection.

When I’m not behind the camera you’ll usually find me with a coffee in hand, enjoying a little chocolate watching RuPaul’s Drag Race, or 90's re-runs of Shortland Street.

I feel incredibly lucky to photograph families during such a special chapter of life, and it’s a privilege to help preserve these memories for years to come.
