Portraits that carry your holy fire, so the people you're here to reach can see, hear and feel who you really are.
Discover the 1:1 photoshootSome moments ask to be witnessed, not just captured.
Welcome
This is Haerenga Imagery
I photograph powerhouse women. The ones building, leading, creating and holding space for others. Women whose work is shifting something in the world, and who are ready to be seen as fully as they show up.
Every shoot here is a journey. Your story is listened to, your fire is honoured, and each image is held for its sacredness.
Witnessed, not posed
No stiff smiles or borrowed poses. I wait for the moment you stop performing and simply arrive.
Held with reverence
You're never rushed or directed into someone else's idea of you. What we make together honours who you are.
Made to be shared
Your images are yours to use: your website, your book, your stage, your socials, your story.

Discover Wahine HaerengaWhat sets this apart
Most photographers capture how you look. I capture what moves through you.
I'm a spiritual activist behind the camera, trained in spiritual direction and guided by my tīpuna (ancestors). So your shoot begins long before the first frame: with your story, your intention, and the fire you carry. The images are simply where it shows.
