Wellington based, Travelling worldwide for Love
Hi there! I'm Mahana—a nature-loving, laid-back, hands-on creative up for spontaneous adventures. When I'm not snapping photos, catch me by the beach or wandering in the wilderness. If not, I'm probably lost in my garden, obsessing over dahlias. Juggling a busy whanau also keeps life lively!
There's nothing I love more than capturing the special bond and love story between two souls. Planning a wedding can be a whirlwind of excitement and challenges, so let's grab a drink and chat about all the amazing things you're planning for your big day!
THANKS FOR POPPing BY!
Kia ora! I'm Mahana

Introducing my Work
"Our experience with mahana felt so relaxed and she made us feel so welcomed and comfortable.
The vibe in her studio helped us to feel comfortable taking photos as neither myself or my partner had taken photos before and having the music in the background definitely lifted the vibe. "

We absolutely loved working with Mahana for our family maternity shoot. Mahana really brought my vision to life and made it even better than I could have imagined. She found the most incredible place to shoot, made it feel so easy and natural for us especially when it’s something very much out of our comfort zone.
It was the best experience working with Mahana and we cant wait to work with her again in the future!

From the moment we walked into her space (which is absolutely stunning, filled with natural light and beautiful props) we felt so at ease and ended up having so much fun.
Bub was calm the whole time which is a testament to Mahana’s positive energy and family friendly creative direction. It was honestly such a comfortable experience for us and we hope to be back in the studio again soon. Our photos came out way past our expectation, we love them so much, especially the ones of our pīwari pēpi. E mihi ana Mahana!
