“Your photos managed to capture everything that was important to us on our wedding day and we so appreciate that you managed to capture such special moments (e.g. those precious split-second expressions on peoples’ faces!). You’ve got a real gift of timing and seeing through the lens. We also really liked your relaxed nature and the way you interacted with all the guests when taking photos. Everyone who’s seen our photos raves on about them! Having a pre-wedding engagement shoot with you was invaluable. Mostly, to get us relaxed in front of a camera and also work together with you on what we liked/didn’t like”
- Antonia & Ashley

“Hi Grant – just a quick email to let you know how AWESOME everyone thinks our photos are! I’ve had so many comments its nuts! Thank you so much for doing a fantastic job – I don’t normally like showing other people photos of myself – so it’s a big compliment to you that I’ve shown these to everyone I’ve ever met!”
- Rebekah & Ryan

“Thanks for the photos they are perfect! They arrived yesterday afternoon by courier, they are awesome! Thank you sooooo much. I love the DVD too it really captures the whole journey and I love the pictures you chose for it. I cant wait to get our album although I think I am going to have trouble just choosing some of the photos as each one is special to me! Thank you so much for the amazing job you did! We loved having you in Fiji”
-Tineke & Phil

Children of Baja

From time to time I will feature some environmental photography taken by me when Mark and I did a house building trip to the slums of Baja, Mexico. We went with a group called Global Tribe. Please ask me if you would like to know more about this volunteer organisation.

Here's Hazel

Meet Hazel, our little friend from Christchurch. Hazel and her grandmother had a few days respite from the aftershocks in Christchurch with us recently and so we decided to create some surprise portraits for Hazels mum. Needless to say she loved them!

Jack, Molly & Charlie rock!

These kids are great, and they live in a very beautiful part of New Zealand – Central Otago. Their mum and dad just wanted some relaxed and fun portrait images taken in their back garden. This was late afternoon while we waited for the BBQ to warm up!

About Lasting Expressions


Lasting Expressions Photography is a boutique portrait and family photography studio where people and photography are our passion. We have bases on the Kapiti Coast and in Wellington City and we work on location throughout the greater Wellington region and beyond. We have covered weddings in the pacific islands, completed a documentary photography project in Mexico with Global Tribe and carried out environmental portraiture projects in USA.

A key to successful photography is establishing a solid rapport with people, but also blending into the background when appropriate (weddings are a great example of when both skill sets are required). Confidence translates into comfort, allowing you to relax in the knowledge that everything is under control. With the greatest of care we provide you photography that we hope will surpass your expectations. Capturing life, for life, is all about recording the intimacy, emotion, detail and energy of the moment.

Grant also offers a boutique photographic service for a very select number of weddings each year.
