FAQs
WOULD YOU TRAVEL TO PHOTOGRAPH OUR FAMILY?
Yes, Absolutely! I travel all over New Zealand photographing families, so far i have been to the Waikato, Northland, Auckland, Rotorua, Tauranga, Raglan & Taupo. Included in my packages is travel within Hamilton, contact me for a quote if your shoot is outside the Hamilton area.
MY KIDS WON’T SIT STILL FOR PHOTOS, SHOULD I STILL BOOK?
100% Book those family photos in! No matter how much you think your kids won’t cooperate, every family deserves to have at least one family photoshoot together. I have been photographing families for over 10 years and have plenty of prompts to get beautiful family photos and engage the kids in fun games and adventuring around our shoot location.
WHEN SHOULD I BOOK MY
MATERNITY SESSION FOR?
The sweet spot is between 30 and 34 weeks pregnant. Slightly earlier if having twins/multiple babies.
At this point, your bump looks beautifully rounded and full, yet you're still comfortable and mobile enough to move around, pose more comfortably, and truly enjoy the session. This is also avoids running the risk of missing the opportunity of doing photos due to early arrival.
I AM STRESSED TRYING TO ORGANISE OUR SHOOT OUTFITS, CAN YOU HELP?
I know how overwhelming piecing together outfits can be especially for your whole whanau. That was my driving motivation behind my add on service ‘The Style Edit’.
Being able to simply fill in a questionnaire and have me do the rest is quite literally a timesaver.

“FIRSTLY WOW, AINSLEE IS EXTREMELY TALENTED”
“Firstly WOW Ainslee is extremely talented and professional. From the beginning of the booking until receiving our images, everything was so well communicated and her price guide as well as tips on what to wear and bring were so extremely helpful! She was so kind and friendly and even drove all the way from Hamilton to Auckland. We just loved our whole experience and the photos themselves were beyond what we could have hoped for. She went above and beyond and sent us so much more than we thought we would receive. Looking at the pictures brings me so much joy. She captured everything perfectly and will be a day we will never forget. Thank you Ains, you are AMAZING! So grateful we booked our first ever session with you and will definitely be doing it again!
