About us

pressed flowers lovingly supplied by Nana.

Originally from Gisborne, I now reside in Auckland, New Zealand, in between travelling for destination bookings. My passion for taking photos began when I was about 11, and now with 15 years behind the lens I have developed a deep love of capturing connection between people.

I love to take a fly on the wall / a friend with a film camera approach during your day, which brings a unique perspective and feeling to my work. 

With a love for creative portraits + fashion that stems from my early photography days, having space to create and collaborate with couples for their imagery is deeply important.

Jared also grew up in a small town, Katikati. His love for photography began in his early teens, through taking photos of his friends skating. A series of events led him to capturing live music events.

Fast forward to 2025, he’s been splitting his time between NZ & LA for the last 4 years touring all around the world with musicians.
