Photography

​Based on the stunning West Coast of New Zealand’s South Island, I’m the owner and operator of Riverstone House, a proud mum to two energetic young daughters, and an award-winning nightscape photographer, tutor, and guide.
​
My obsession with the night sky began in childhood, but it wasn’t until 2016 that I discovered astrophotography, and I was instantly hooked! With just a single workshop to set me on the path, I dove headfirst into teaching myself everything I could. Countless late nights and early mornings were spent honing my skills, both behind the lens and in post-processing.
Astrophotography demands patience, precision, and a healthy dose of stubborn determination, qualities that have not only shaped my creative work, but my life as a whole. Along the way, I’ve been honoured to receive recognition for my photography both here in Aotearoa and internationally, and I proudly represent Sky-Watcher Australia as an ambassador.
These days, my greatest enthusiasm lies in sharing the magic of the night sky and the wild beauty of the West Coast. Through my imagery, workshops, and guided photography experiences, I aim to inspire others to slow down, look up, explore, and truly connect with the world around them.
