MEET YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER

HEY! I'M RENEE

I know what it’s like to feel awkward & unnatural in front of the camera.

And my own lived experience is exactly why I do things differently.

I want your photo experience to feel easy-going and comfortable.

No painstakingly fake smiles, and no pretending.

Standing in front of a camera doesn’t come naturally for most of us (me included).

You probably won't feel instantly relaxed, in fact, for the first 5 mins you may still feel awkward AF (but nothing we can't laugh our way through).

And that’s totally normal.

I'll get on your kids’ level, give you space to settle in, and help everyone feel at ease. I know that’s when the good stuff shows up.

No weird poses, no stiff smiles, nothing forced, and zero pressure.

Living through the chaos of toddlerhood has taught me to seek out meaningful moments, create joy and seek real, honest expression.
Photos that feel like your life, not a fluffy curated version of it.

The kinda photos that spark a memory taking you straight back, especially when you look at them years later.

If you're after a low-pressure photo experience with someone who gets what it’s like to feel a little unsure in front of the camera, you're in the right place.

5 RANDOM THINGS ABOUT ME

I'm an observer, open-minded and deeply curious. So naturally, I notice the little details. You can also count on me to recall random information, such as number plates, phone numbers, and what you wore last time we hung out. Sounds stalkerish, I know!

I'm a deep thinker who LOVES pondering the bigger picture. Always down for a good deep & meaningful - whether it's life, parenting joys + chaos, AND of course anything 'woo woo'. Getting to know you on a deeper level helps me uncover who you are at heart, capturing photos that feel natural + truly YOU.

If you want to make me laugh, take it to the gutter. Life's too short to be serious.

Family is really important to me, so naturally, I'm really close with my sisters and parents. If I'm not at home, there's a 90% chance I'm out and about with one of them. We live fairly close to one another on our family farm, so I often joke we're the new-age Gloriavale.

I'd LOVE to offer birth photography one day! I've been lucky enough to support both of my sisters during their homebirths, which inspired me hugely. The energy in the room is hard to describe, so bringing it to life through photos for others would be very fulfilling!
