Hi, I'm Liane, a photographer based in Christchurch, New Zealand, and I specialize in newborn, maternity, and family photography. My style is all about capturing the natural, candid, and timeless moments that tell your family's unique story.
My journey into photography started when I became a mother. That's when I truly understood the importance of preserving every milestone, and I discovered a love for studying light, art, and people. Now, with nearly a decade of experience, I've had the joy of photographing families from all walks of life here in Christchurch.
As a mum to two energetic boys, Lucas and Lennon, I totally get the beautiful chaos of family life! When you book a session with me, it's more than just taking pictures. It's an opportunity for you to relax, connect, and be yourselves. I focus on creating genuine, unposed moments that become cherished parts of your family's story.
Outside of photography, I'm a bit of a plant enthusiast, with a collection of over 90 houseplants! In my downtime, I love spending time with my family, enjoying simple pleasures like movie nights and soaking up the sunset.
I'd love to help you create photographs that you and your family will treasure for years to come. Take a look at my portfolio, and let's chat about how we can capture your memories together.

Family Session
We were absolutely thrilled with our beautiful family portraits of our family of eight, including our six daughters aged 2-17 years old. Liane was great working with our children, giving clear directions as to positioning, and making them laugh effortlessly. I would highly recommend Liane as a photographer who is passionate and knowledgeable about her work, and very relatable and friendly. Obrigada Liane! From the Lene whānau ❤️

" Liane is a wonderful, friendly person to work with. She makes sure you feel comfortable throughout the process and you don't feel rushed. She is respectful of your space and boundaries but still manages to capture stunning memories. She has a truly amazing gift to see what others don't and the ability to capture it on camera. If you looking for photos that capture you in the moment, pure joy and excitement or the love you and your family have she is the right photographer for you!"

"My husband and I highly recommend Liane if you're wanting any family/maternity/newborn shoot! Not only is she professional, she is very friendly and thoughtful. Her work is just absolutely beautiful and she is very easy to work with! She will let you know how to pose for those who are awkward (Eg my husband and I lol) but she is also really good at capturing natural poses and the lifestyle. Liane personally delivered the photobook and all photos come in a cute little USB flash drive, together with other personalised and thoughtful items/notes! We will definitely use her service again in the future! Thank you Liane for your amazing work and keep doing what you do!"

Maternity Session + Family Session
"I won a maternity session with Liane as a gift from friends and I can just say that it was a VERY SPECIAL gift. Since our first contact, Liane was very friendly, attentive and super careful, she explained about her work, gave guidance, suggestions and was super open to try to meet expectations and wishes. I had never participated in a photoshoot before and I was afraid of feeling uncomfortable or shy, but Liane was fantastic, she did everything to make me feel comfortable and the session was very relaxed and happy. She also photographed my baby and family, and once again she was great and did everything to ensure everyone was happy and comfortable. I could not recommend her work more, amazing professional. You can see that Liane loves what she does, and this makes her work beautiful! "
