Portrait Photography

Portraits are the reason I do photography. I believe every portrait tells a story and conveys a myriad of unspoken truths about the subject. Whether you’re after an empowering goddess style shoot in the lush native New Zealand bush or on a rugged coastline, or you’re wanting to capture your beautiful and unique family before your children get any older, I will deliver timeless images you won’t be able to stop looking at. I’ve been personally trained by renowned photographer Nami Hampe, creator of the original Goddess Shoot™ as well as American photographer Brooke Shaden, so you can rest assured you’re in good hands.
 
 
No two portrait shoots with me will be the same. In my portraits I love to express the personality of you through and through whilst making you feel completely at ease. I know how nerve racking it can be to be professionally photographed so I’ll offer you just the right amount of guidance and direction to help you feel relaxed whilst looking natural and at your best. 
 
I’ll come to a location of your choosing within wider Auckland or Northland so you can pick somewhere which is special to you, convenient, or comfortable.
 
Even better you’ll receive all of your photos within a week of taking them, no need to wait an age!

“Cari is one of the best photographer’s I’ve worked with. She easily understood my vision, made me feel comfortable during our shoot and delivered work that exceeded my expectations. My only hope is that I get to work with her again soon.”

Cari is an incredible portrait photographer who brings out the best in all her clients – my shoot showed my personality without feeling posed or rehearsed. I love Cari’s use of natural light and color to really enhance all her shots. I can’t wait to hire her again.

Cari was amazing at our recent Grins Night of Champions event. She was easy to deal with and super reliable, a real treat during such a chaotic time. Cari worked independently to navigate our event and interact with the crowd to get some awesome shots. Would recommend Cari for event photography and would use again.

I couldn't have asked for a better photographer for my wedding! Cari made everyone feel comfortable and relaxed which made for incredible photos. Many of my guests commented on how great she was. Within a couple of weeks of my wedding on November 5th I had hundreds of amazing photos to look through and remember the day - I can't recommend her highly enough!
