Personal photoshoots for yourself, your family, children, or pets are special lifelong gifts that capture precious memories in the magical underwater world. If you're considering a photoshoot, I'd love to discuss it with you personally before you book. This way, we can plan together to ensure a truly wonderful experience. Let's connect and make your underwater dreams come true!
Expectant mum
Pregnancy is a beautiful journey, and every woman deserves to have this time captured in an artistic, timeless way. It’s one of the most magical and memorable periods in a woman’s life. That’s why I offer underwater maternity photoshoots to celebrate this special stage. In an era where meaningful experiences often outshine material possessions, underwater maternity photography serves as a visual love letter, celebrating the beauty of this transformative time. Once you become a new mom, busy with diaper changes and reheating your coffee for the tenth time, the magic of pregnancy might seem like a distant memory. In the sleep-deprived haze of life with a newborn, it’s easy to forget those intimate moments when it felt like it was just you and the baby growing inside you. When you document your pregnancy with underwater photos, you create a lasting reminder of that connection. You want photos that transport you back to those moments, allowing you to fall in love with being pregnant all over again and remember just how magical it was.
Are you ready to take the 'plunge' and book a personal photoshoot with me? Please use my online booking shop to confirm your booking. Once done, we will arrange our online pre-shoot briefing and orientation to allow us to plan your incredible experience.
Well, I am Fiona your photographer. I am a passionate underwater photographer and lover of everything in the Oceans, Originally I was born in Kenya before moving to South Africa in my youth. Today I am located on the Northshore of Auckland. Here I spend my time exploring and photographing the oceans of New Zealand and the Southern Pacific Islands.
All my photoshoots occur at my dedicated private swimming pool or at a secluded public breach. When on public beaches, I try to select times and locations with the highest level of privacy possible. If you have a swimming pool or special place (within the Auckland area) where you would like the photoshoot to occur, I am more than happy to accommodate your needs.
Definitely no! All my underwater photoshoots are done with models using breath-hold only. You only need to hold your breath for 10 seconds for me to capture a great image. If you are not confident in the water, I am happy to spend time giving you a quick tutorial on breath-hold techniques and how to pose underwater. If you, however, feel unconfident in the water, please select one of my beach-based photoshoots.
Apart from yourself, all you will need to bring the bathing costume/dress/costume (excluding mermaid tails) that you would like to be photographed in. I do supply a range of additional props to bring an extra sparkle to the photo shoot.
If you would prefer to do your own makeup, please ensure that it is waterproof and you have applied this before arrival.
Photoshoots occur in private swimming pools or public beaches of Auckland's north shore. If you cannot travel or would like me to travel to you for a photographic shoot, then please send me an email message so that I can offer you a quote.
I will lovingly edit the photographs for five working days before delivery. I will then send you a Dropbox link that you can use to download your 20 finalised photographs.
