Auckland Photographer Emily Chalk Family Portraits

The Gardner Family – Wenderholm Regional Park

With family in America and Covid effecting travel, the Gardner’s felt it was really important to update their family photos for the first time in several years. Their two girls have changed so much from the last shoot they thought they’d better get cracking. 

Wenderholm Regional Park was the perfect local spot where the girls could run, jump and play.  We selected a time when it was less busy so we could explore without distraction. 

Focusing on their strength as a co-parenting family with strong bonds and a fun relaxed approach to life. The energy of this family was refreshing and shown in the photos by tickling, playing, climbing on both Mum and Dad. The trees were a perfect play area and pulling silly faces was the order of the day. 

Their images tell a precious story, you can see the distinct personalities of each member of this family emerging. These images will surely be cherished by Family half way across the world who can-not connect in person.
