SELFIES ARE FOR AMATEURS. INVEST IN YOURSELF.
My strength is photographing people. I know how to get past the wooden photo smiles and get that real sense of connection with the camera that is so crucial to a good headshot. We can all pick it when a smile isn't real. I help you come across as confident, approachable and genuine.
Most of my clients come in telling me how unphotogenic they are, and wishing me luck. I love giving them photographs they can enjoy. I get results fast, which keeps things fresh and real, and means the whole experience is quick and painless.
I offer business headshots for websites, Facebook and LinkedIn, and personal portraits for those wanting to express themselves and their brand a little more, such as actors, authors, architects and other creatives and business owners. I also offer workplace shoots for companies needing content across their website, showing workers in action.
I am an accredited professional and Grand Master of Photography with the New Zealand Institution of Professional Photography (NZIPP).
Shoots can be held in my studio in Brooklyn, just a few minutes from central Wellington, or at a location of your choice and convenience. I use portable lighting and can bring along a background system if needed, meaning we can achieve both the studio look and a more environmental style at your offices or home.
