PORTRAITS

Portraits by Lisa Duncan Photography Marlborough NZ
One day you will look back and realise that the little things in life really were the big things...

I know that at the bottom of every to-do-list is getting some family photos done. When you are all looking presentable; hair neat, makeup on, Dad on board and when Mum actually has time! You know, those things that all come together every time you meet a unicorn. 

Seriously though, family photographs are just that - for your family to enjoy. I love getting out and about with your tribe and exploring on a beautiful day, because special photos always come together when you are just being a family, however that may be!

As a mother, I know that feeling when you look back on a photograph and laugh, or cry (or both!) and remember the precious things about your family that have since escaped your memory; how small their hand really was in yours, or that batman suit worn for three months solid (day AND night!), how much love your child poured into that one favourite toy, or when they cut their own hair...

I love finding beauty in everyday moments, capturing life as it happens and preserving special memories. A time capsule of your family as it is right now! 

While I may do a directed group shot or two, I really enjoy in-the-moment, organic style photography, where you will look back and remember how your seven year old could not look at the camera without pulling a horrendous face, or that chunk of missing hair in the middle of your three year old’s forehead (that the seven year old kindly clipped - yes personal experience here!). And if your child is happily wearing a super hero outfit, relax Mum, go get your makeup done, get a babysitter for the evening and book a date night for after the photoshoot so even Dad is excited about it...

So if you feel like crossing something off your to-do-list and getting some beautiful images of your family (perhaps for some Christmas gifts!) then check out the gallery below and get in contact here

Family Sessions start at $380 and each gallery comes with a $50 print credit so you can order prints and products directly from your gallery.

The white wall project came about as my kids grow older, they don’t want those cute images you get as a toddler or small child. And getting them out for a family session might only happen once every few years as they start to do their own things.

My kids wanted (quick!) and grown up images and I wanted to still be able document their changing faces as they grow into young people.

The white wall is quick and easy update images for kids over 4. Images are delivered in Black and White via an online gallery where you can choose your images and purchase the digital downloads directly through the gallery. Prints can also be purchased directly from the gallery. Each digital image is $30, and prints start at $6*

It’s a great way to update your kid’s photos without doing the full family portrait session with the big kids. Get in touch and we can schedule a time for a drop-in session to update the kid’s portraits!
