hello,

 

I’m Louise—the heart and lens behind Louise Davies Photography. Nestled under the beautiful Kaimai Ranges, just 15 minutes from Matamata, I create heartfelt newborn, family and heritage portraits that become treasured heirlooms. As a mum and experienced photographer, I know how quickly these moments pass. My sessions are relaxed and baby-led, designed to keep little ones comfortable and parents at ease, while I quietly capture the genuine connections that make your family unique.

“I offer two unique photography experiences — one celebrating new beginnings, and another preserving legacy through timeless children’s portraits.”
