About Us

We are a boutique photography studio based on the Kapiti Coast but covering the greater Wellington area. The images we capture allow you to “taste life twice” because our photographs are of life, for life. Using the latest Canon Professional SLR cameras we achieve high quality results in any location. You could choose to have your picture in front of a backdrop in the mall, but if you want something special then let us capture your personality in an individualised on-location photo session. Our technique resembles a modeling shoot for a magazine. Have fun in front of our cameras in the clothing and at the location of your choice.

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.
