Life's most meaningful moments are rarely the ones we plan—they're found in the cuddles, laughter, quiet glances, and the beautiful connections you share every day. I'm the photographer trusted by Auckland families who want timeless artwork of the people they love most. My sessions are designed to capture these genuine moments naturally, creating timeless portraits that feel authentic, heartfelt, and uniquely yours.

Whether you're welcoming your newborn or documenting this season of family life, I'll gently guide you through a relaxed experience where there's no pressure to perform or pose perfectly. Instead, you'll simply spend time together while I preserve the love, emotion, and connection that makes your family story so special.

These are the photographs that will only become more valuable with time—honest, natural memories you'll treasure for generations. As I take on a limited number of sessions each month, I recommend booking well in advance to secure your preferred date.
Warmly, Lucy x

    ‘Lucy did our newborn pics for us, so it was very special to book in another session. It felt totally relaxed and carefree, yet Lucy was definitely helping to guide us to get all the right shots. I loved how she encouraged my boy to show his toddler energy, and let the photos happen around him. Highly recommend!’
