“Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever… It remembers all those little things, long after the moment has passed.”
NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHY IN THE COMFORT OF YOUR OWN HOME
Your newborn photography experience should be relaxing, special and memorable. My years as an Auckland newborn photographer have taught me that the best place for your newborn photography session, is in the comfort of your own home. Newborn babies - and parents - are more relaxed at home. This provides better opportunities for candid family photography, which captures real emotion, love and the connection shared by your family
The days following a birth can be a whirlwind of activity and emotions - so think of your newborn session as a time to slow down and savor some quiet moments with your new baby.
Your Auckland newborn photographer Renaye McLachlan
Hello, my name is Renaye and I am a natural light & moments photographer based in Auckland, NZ.
I am a twin, one of four siblings, and an Aunty to two gorgeous boys (Eli and Lais) who have made me feel a love I've never felt before.
I love authentic moments and capturing your beautiful family as they are, right at this moment. With new life, I am all about creating an authentic document of your newborn. Capturing their perfect little details in a way they will never be again; brand new. These are the things that you will look back at in years to come and will make your heart truly sing.
My approach to photography is both natural and gentle. To capture people comfortably and candidly is paramount. I gently direct posing while encouraging you to interact in a genuine way with your loved ones. It's about finding the perfect balance for your family, documenting everything into photographs that tell your story.
I’m just here doing my thing with passion, love and honesty for families who are all about creating memories that will last.
I can’t wait to meet you.
Renaye
