Family Portraits and Business Photography
My specialty is working with people. Whether it’s a portrait for your business profile or a family photo session, I like to encourage your personality to shine through by creating a fun and relaxed atmosphere.
I’m often asked when the best time is to have a family portrait. Regardless of whether they’re babies or teens, your kids will grow and change quickly, and you’ll never get this time again. This means the best time to capture your family is right now! It doesn’t matter about the weather or where we are, the best moments are captured when everyone is being themselves and having fun! By the way, I love animals and jump at the chance of including pets in your photography session.
“We have used Emily now a number of times to take our family photos. Without fail Emily has produced the most amazing pictures. I could not recommend Emily enough.”

Editorial and Print Photography
I’m an experienced editorial and print photographer, producing editorial images that reflect both the tone of an article and the personalities profiled. I love meeting new and interesting people, and find myself able to make a connection that helps people relax.
My wide and varied photographic career, both in New Zealand and London, has taught me to think on my feet. My previous magazine work includes NEXT, Australian Woman's Weekly, FOOD and Good Heath Choices.

“We hired Emily for our wedding and would thoroughly recommend her for any large event or party. Her photos - both candid and posed - were shot with style and attention to detail, we are very pleased with the end result. I have wondered in the past whether a wedding photographer is worth the extra expense in these days of everyone having a good camera on their phone. I think what makes the difference is the work and extra effort Emily puts into her photos- scouting locations ahead of time, considering lighting, angles and then the editing and shot selection afterwards. It really highlights that you are receiving a professional service, not an enthusiastic amateur, and for that special event Emily is the perfect choice. ”
