Hi I’m Belinda – a professional photographer from Christchurch.  I pride myself on my creativity and making amazing photos for my clients.  I love to create artworks for your walls that will make your friends go – wow!

I offer three types of photography:

Family Photography

Family photography for me, has to be fun!  I most often do these shoots outdoors.  Often wild and fun with beautiful lighting.  That’s why sunset is often the best time of day.  There are plenty of amazing spots around Christchurch for outdoor photography. Keep the kids up and have some fun at the beach, the forest or wherever we decided to have the shoot. Family photography for me has to be fun.  Im the kind of photographer that will pull a stupid face at you.  I’ll make you piggy back each other.  I’ll make Dad turn his son upside down!  It has to be fast and furious and fun!  I promise even the teenagers will enjoy it.  I am good at capturing the personalities of all members of the family.  These shoots can be done in colour or classic black and white which will stand the test of time on any wall.

Premium Portraits

These are one of a kind artworks of yourself or your child.  Studio portraiture is one of my passions and I have some amazing props and can set up something wonderful for you.  I also experiment and create things that surprise even myself!  Double exposures done in camera are a favourite of mine.  These need to be printed big and displayed on the wall like you would a painting. My special talent is actually listening to you and then creating one-off pieces that will suit your decor and your personality.  I use a lot of in-camera techniques, lighting and tricks, to create amazing photos. 

I’m big into dance photography!  One of my daughters has 8 national titles in Ballroom and Latin American so I spend a lot of time watching dance competitions.  I am always striving to get the perfect dance shot and create an artwork that will stand the test of time on your wall.  These photos are part of my premium art package and can be passed down the family as an heirloom piece of art.

I’ve travelled overseas and spent lots of time in art galleries looking at paintings that are mysterious and make you think.  I aim to do the same thing in some of my work.  Even a simple studio portrait, I love to capture the personality of the person and maybe hint at some mystery there.

Corporate Photography

If you are looking for a Christchurch photographer who will go the extra mile for professional headshots and branding shoots, look no further.  Whether you are looking for a simple Linkedin Portrait or a series of amazing portraits that encourage clients to book you, there is a package that will suit your needs. I will work with you closely to achieve what you want.  We can have a consultation beforehand either in person or with zoom to decide exactly what you need.

Master of Photography

I have a Master of Photography with Distinction with the New Zealand Institute of Photography (NZIPP) and have won many awards with my portraiture and artwork.  Check out my awards and see my art through the years.
