Unprofessional, unreasonable and untruthful business owner. Stay away.

The best maternity and baby/family photographer you could ever ask for! Diana makes everyone feel and look their best and is fabulous with children. I have been using her for 2.5 years now and would never ask anyone else to take important photos for my family. Sessions are never rushed, children and babies are made to feel like the most important beings in the universe and if you’re in for a newborn shoot you’re treated to tv with Netflix, as much tea and coffee as you could want along with yummy treats while your newborn baby is being preserved for all time. The product you get is unparalleled and the quality is amazing. You also get all your photos from your session (the edited ones) on a special app that you can share with friends and family. This way if they want any copies they can contact Diana directly to organise them, and you can show them off wherever you go! What more could you want! More...

Q&As

The secret to taking a great photograph is to not just think of it as a "photo" but a piece of art that will carry you through time and become your families legacy.

When I work I like to have a personal connection with my babies and their families. In New Zealand where I am from everyone is an Aunty and Uncle, and because most of my clients see me once, twice a year I become the kids Aunty DiDi. I see them grow up, from sitting up, to crawling and then taking their first steps. I am forever woven into that child life and I consider that a true honor. That level of feeling and connection allows me to make a true piece of art.

The questions I might ask a client when starting a new project is all based on and around how would they like to be remembered in the future?

I have Mothers ring me everyday saying "I just want a nice photo of my baby", which is perfect what mother wouldn't want to capture their pride and joy at this point in their life. The next step from that is... ok now what... what are you going to do with those amazing portraits? Having great portraits of your baby on Facebook or stashed away in a draw somewhere doesn't show your kids how proud you are of them, it doesn't say I love you so much that I want to celebrate you!

I want you to enjoy your images not just for the few seconds you load them up on Facebook but every single day. I have had a mum say to me every time she is tired, stressed, overwhelmed all she does is go and stand in front of those amazing portraits of her girls and life gets a little easier, the reason she is doing it all is for those girls and those portraits help her remember that.

So I ask, how do you want to display your portraits?

My Job is not my Job and that is the best part of it. Sure I do it full time, and sure I work really hard at it but its not my job. I invest in my equipment, my location and my props but its still not my job...

its my passion, my hearts desire, the fuel that fills me up and keeps me going. And because it is for me my work fills my clients hearts.

Start your own business is hard work, everyone wants to believe they can but very few follow through and do what it takes. The reason I do what it takes is because what it does for my clients, what they tell me is does for them. Every client of mine contributes to the next client by supporting me in keeping this business running, if it wasn't for my clients I would not be able to supply portraits that inspire, move and fill my clients hearts and that to me is my biggest driving force. So thank you for supporting a local artist in making a difference in peoples lives.

I want people to choose my art, I am just the person who it flows from. I want you to choose work that inspires you, that moves you, that will make its mark on your heart. If that is my work then I really look forward to meeting you and creating your story.
