I know what you’re thinking. Just pretend it's spelled Cattanack and you’ll be fine.
Welcome to my site. If you’ve got this far you’ve probably seen a bit of my work, and hopefully you’ve found that it resonates with you.
I’m a Wellington-based portrait and fine art photographer, wife, mother, and coffee aficionada. I was hugely honoured to be named NZIPP Wellington Photographer of the Year 2018, NZ Creative Photographer of the Year in 2016, and NZ Classic Portrait Photographer of the Year in 2014.
I’m always aiming for the genuine in my work, whether that be real smiles or real moments between people or real connection with the camera. It’s not easy having a lens pointed your way, so it’s important to book a photographer who knows how to get past the wooden smiles and achieve the natural results you’re after.
My clients tend to be people who value photography as an investment both for themselves and for future generations. They like to keep things natural and unobtrusive, they don’t love posing, and they want to look like themselves, only better.
If this sounds like you and you like what you see here, get in touch - I’d love to hear from you.
