Mom's Day 2025

The heart behind this campaign!

 When the body speaks, the soul just wants to breathe.

Last year,
I went through a quiet storm.
Being a mum. A partner. A woman. A business woman.
And doing all of it far from home.

It was too much for my body.
One sunny lunch with my family,
my partner noticed two large bald patches on my scalp.
That’s when I realised — my exhaustion was speaking loud.

I shared this with the women’s and mums’ groups I’m part of,
and to my surprise… I wasn’t alone.

 Our bodies and minds are deeply connected.
And we need to talk about it.

This Mother’s Day, I want to invite you to something different.

Something slower. Softer. Soulful.

For who this sessions are for?

  • For the mama who wants to slow down and just be.

  • For the woman who longs to be seen with softness and truth.

  • For anyone who feels the deep pull to hold this season of life, just as it is.

Sitting Time

Please be aware that Mother's Day  booking sessions are limited to 30 minutes. If you arrive late, you might not have enough time to get clicks in different positions as we have  bookings back to back.

Arrival

Please arrive 15 minutes early to organize yourself for the photoshoot.

Are partners allowed in the photos?

In many of our phone galleries, you'll find an abundance of photos of our children and their fathers, but few or none of us mothers truly together with our little ones. This Mother's Day, we want to change that. While fathers are always welcome to join in for a few shots, our focus will be on capturing the genuine, heartfelt moments between moms and their children.

Bookings Conditions

Hey dear Mama,
I’m so honoured you’re thinking about joining me for these special sessions.

I’m keeping these sessions intimate and limited, so it's first-come, first-served.

  • It’s non-refundable, but I totally understand life with kids — see rescheduling below.

3. Life Happens — Rescheduling:

4. Cancellations:

  • Last-minute cancellations (less than 48 hours) or no-shows will forfeit the session fee.

  • If for any reason I need to postpone (like crazy weather or an emergency), I’ll reschedule you at no cost or refund you fully if needed.

5. Weather:

  • Our sessions will be outdoors at beautiful One Tree Hill, Auckland.

  • If it’s just a little cloudy — perfect! If it’s heavy rain or stormy, we’ll reschedule.
