Meet Fiona
For more than 30 years, I’ve photographed people with warmth, instinct and an eye for the fleeting moments that make a day feel alive. My approach is calm and unobtrusive, with thoughtful direction whenever you need it.
I’m based in Wānaka and photograph elopements across Queenstown, Central Otago and throughout New Zealand. Whether your day unfolds beside the lake, in the mountains or around a long table with your closest people, I’ll tell the story honestly and beautifully.
