Natural, timeless family & wedding photography
Based in Paraparaumu on the beautiful Kapiti Coast, NZ
Welcome to my online corner,
I’m Jo
I'm lucky to live in a beautiful part of NZ, with the beach, river or forest a 10 min drive away. I have over 18 years experience photographing families, weddings and elopements.
I love photographing fun people in beautiful places.

"Jo was absolutely amazing.
She made both my son and I feel so comfortable
from the start.
My son can get overwhelmed, but she let him be himself and he had the best time. Also, photos are outside my comfort zone, but Jo made the whole experience feel calm, easy, and safe. Such a beautiful, positive experience.
I can’t wait to see the photos and will definitely be going ahead with the full package."

My Work
Family Mini Sessions
Capture your life as a family!
Beautiful family photography designed for real families with little kids - short, fun, active sessions where nobody has to stand still and smile.
30 minutes at your home,
or out at the beach, river or forest.
Weddings
Your wedding photos should be more than just pretty pictures - they should capture the feeling of the day, the quiet moments, the happy tears, and the laughter that never stops. My goal is to document your wedding in a way that feels natural, so you can relive every moment for years to come.
Fine Art Prints
My Travel Memories series asks a deceptively simple question: what does a place actually feel like? Not the single frame, the hero shot or the postcard - but the whole layered, sensory, half-remembered experience of being there. Each image is built from my own photos of a destination, composited into something that hovers between photography and painting.
