One thing I learned very early on being a mum and newborn photographer is that babies have their own agenda and the only way to win with them is to be incredibly patient.

English bull dog meets baby sibling…it’s becoming a bit of a theme around here!

As a Hawke's Bay photographer who adores storytelling and emotional connections between people, it doesn't get much better than having one of my couples get in touch a few years after their wedding to ask me to spend some time with them documenting the next big milestone in their lives, the arrival of children.

I was so thrilled to hear from Anna three years after her beautiful wedding to Nathan that they were coming home to Hawke's Bay for a visit...with a new addition.
