Hi, I'm Es.

Taupō-based photographer, wife, mum, lover of real moments, and a self-confessed coffee snob.

As a 90s baby and old soul all rolled into one, I find joy in the little things—the belly laughs, wind-blown hair, genuine connection, and the beautifully imperfect moments that often mean the most.

With over 15 years behind the camera, from sunny South Africa to beautiful Aotearoa, I've learned that the best photos happen when you feel comfortable enough to simply be yourselves.

My sessions are relaxed, easy-going, and full of heart. I'll gently guide you when needed, while making space for the real magic to unfold—the laughter, the cuddles, the chaos, and the connection.

Because the magic lives somewhere between the posed and the perfectly imperfect. Capturing not just how it looked, but how it felt to be there.

For me, photography is about preserving a feeling, a season of life, and the people you love most—exactly as they are.
