"What sets Aimee apart is that she's not just a photographer—she genuinely understands branding and marketing. She was instrumental in helping me put together the brief itself, asking the right questions about how I wanted to show up, where the images would be used, and what story I was trying to tell. If you're looking for a personal branding photographer in Auckland who combines technical skill with genuine brand strategy and a relaxed, collaborative approach, I highly recommend Aimee."

"With a comprehensive background in marketing (corporate to SME) Aimee quickly understands the requirements to craft photos that align with your brand. She is adaptable and skilled and will not start a shoot until she clearly understands your end goals. Aimee, made it fun and easy to ‘snap’ some fabulous photos of me, including making me look pretty darn good (not an easy task – hehe). Naturally, I’d highly recommend Aimee for your next photo shoot."

"This photo shoot was such a pleasure! We felt so comfortable and relaxed, and it truly shows in the results. The photos are absolutely incredible — the best Raz has had! We're beyond happy with how everything turned out. It was also so lovely meeting you and having those chats in between shots. Thank you for the wonderful memories."

“I was teary eyed with joy when I saw the sneak peeks, thank you for making my heart smile - I never see myself this way and often thought that I wasn't photogenic but the way you've captured me is just precious - grateful for your talent.”

“She was so thorough in the lead up - I felt Aimee really understood my brand and what I wanted to achieve with my images. On the day I was nervous, but she instantly put me at ease. I felt really comfortable and it was actually so much fun I didn't want it to end! The images turned out better than I ever could've imagined, not posed or cheesy but super authentic, warm and beautiful.”

If I had a dollar for everyone who told me they hate photos of themselves I’d be kicking back in a resort somewhere with an ice cold cocktail in my hand.
Which is why I specialise in making you feel comfortable and confident. When you shoot with me I’ll guide you through every step to capture your best, authentic self.

Headshots are usually shot from the bust up and provide a simple, professional image of what you look like.
Personal Branding incorporates storytelling about who you are and why you do what you do. The goal with Personal Branding imagery is to connect authentically with your audience and speak directly to you ideal customer.
Personal Branding photos will be a mix of headshots, editorial and lifestyle portraiture that visually illustrate what it’s like to work with you. -
How much you pay for a Personal Branding photo session will depend on a few things, including:
the assortment and diversity you require in your image set.
how much strategic planning goes into the session.
what else is included on shoot day (e.g. professional hair and makeup, venue hire).
the photographer’s years of experience and ability to guide you through natural movement and posing will also impact the price.
The average client spends $2,200 on personal branding photos with me.
Check out this page for all the details.

I completely understand wanting just a handful of images, and thinking a few clicks shouldn’t take much time.
But rather than focusing solely on number of files delivered or time spent with my camera raised, my packages are structured around the planning, direction, and experience that goes into creating relaxed, natural looking, strategically aligned photos.
So I don't offer any smaller or lower-cost sessions than those listed on my website.
-
Don’t worry you will get an extensive guide with pages of wardrobe tips and ideas when you book.
The main thing is that you wear something you feel confident in! Try everything on a week before (leaving time to fill in wardrobe gaps if needed).
You can bring in as many outfit options as you want. I’ll go through them with you and help you choose what will work best on camera and make you look a million bucks.
-
I photograph executive teams of 5-15 who want modern lifestyle headshots.
I use natural light and real environments, and will require 1/2 - a full day with your team.
See this page for details.
If your team is just 2 people, check out Personal Branding instead.
For teams of more than 15, I am probably not the right photographer for you.
-
Actor’s headshots sessions are customised to the set ups, posing and direction specifically required for casting headshots. The pricing is based on this.
A Personal Brand session with me involves significant planning to craft a custom shoot, and on the day guidance to create natural, relaxed looking strategically aligned images. This is built into the pricing structure.
