'm so excited you are considering having a photography session with me for your family. As a Mum of two teens, I know how fast the years seems to whizz by.
I just love creating albums and collage frames for the families I photograph. They are the perfect way to tell your family story!
The beach is my happy place and if it's your favourite place too, then let's go there and create some awesome memories and special photos for your family.
hen it comes to your photo session, I want to capture the real essence of your family in a relaxed and natural way.
I want you to look at your images and feel like you are in the moment again, surrounded by all the crazy chaos, love & laughter that reflects just how you guys roll.
I've always felt slightly awkward being in photos myself. I think that's way I have invested so much time and energy into developing a way of photographing families that means we get relaxed, genuine expressions - and believe it or not, we also have a whole lot of fun. Even Dads & teenagers will tell me this when we've finished!
've been photographing families, events and businesses in Whangarei for over 10 years. I absolutely love what I do, and there's not a day goes by that I don't remind myself of that.
My two girls have grown up on the stages of Whangarei singing and acting in what seems like a million concerts and musical theatre productions. So as well as photographing Whangarei families and businesses, I have also had the privilege of capturing many show moments for both Opera North and Whangarei Theatre Company.
We have had the pleasure of working with Tracey twice now and couldn’t recommend her enough!
She has captured the most stunning family shots of us on the beach and her expert kiddie and toddler wrangling skills were a testament to the results.
She also captured us when we became a family of five recently. Tracey made us feel relaxed and at ease while she went about capturing our newborn and family photos at her in-home studio. The results were stunning and we are so happy we chose Tracey to capture these special moments.
Thanks Tracey, we’ll be back 😊 The Bond family x

Tracey captured our family so beautifully! She made the process of getting family photos so comfortable, from the zoom calls to plan, through to the photo session.
We really enjoyed our photo session, with Tracey aided by her great assistant, who was able to hold our little one while we got some nice couple photos.
The kids were entirely comfortable, and Tracey made it feel like we were in the company of old friends.
Then, to top it off, Tracey presented us with an amazing gallery (and an album) of special photos that we will cherish for a long time.

We have the most beautiful family photos thanks to Tracey.
Tracey's support through the whole process is professional and incredibly helpful.
Tracey is warm and friendly and my 4 year old son enjoyed coming up with some cheeky antics with Tracey to get some fun photos.
I highly recommend Tracey and proudly display our photos on the walls of our house.

Oh I am bawling my eyes out over here Tracey. How am I meant to pick when you've done such an incredible job. I am so so thankful, you have no idea how precious these are!
The photos speak for themselves but your talent goes beyond measure, an absolute star! Your patience and gentle nature with the kids was incredible.
With the recent unfortunate changes in our world, these photos are something we can treasure forever - something to make our house a home.

We have had the best experience with Tracey taking photos of our family... from the initial consultation right through to selecting which photos to choose and how to display them, she guided us through with her beautiful manner, using her knowledge and experience along with patience (which was needed with me! 😂)
We are so very happy with the final result and would highly recommend her.
Thank you Tracey ❤️

They say never work with Kids or animals, but Tracey has proved she can do both, with amazing results and memories!
An hour on the beach spending time with my family, with Tracey capturing every moment. Tracey made it fun and easy, directing our camera shy family, with fantastic images to treasure.
I would recommend Tracey to everyone, she does a wonderful job in capturing the essence and thinks about every aspect of a photograph - from styling to destination to posing - you just need to follow her lead and smile, she'll do the rest - with amazing photos to keep ❤️
Thank you Tracey for making me feel like a Princess in the beautiful dress you have for your photoshoots, and for our beautiful family photos 💕

Tracey is efficient, easy to talk with and relaxed.
Her pre photo session guidance and instructions throughout the photo shoot produced a great product.
We were wonderfully managed - humans and groomed dog alike -in the beachy outdoors and everyone really enjoyed our experience.
It’s not easy getting all eyes focused on the camera with seagulls and waves to be caught in the fading evening light! But Tracey did it ….. nailed it … and has produced for us a beautiful 10 photo montage frame.
Thanks heaps Tracey - love your work!

We had such a great experience with Tracey.
Not only are the photos she took of our family absolutely gorgeous, but her professionalism and communication were outstanding from beginning to end.
We couldn't be happier!
Tracey is an absolute gem!
She was so calm and relaxed when taking our family photos that the kids were super chill in front of the camera. She did an amazing job of wrangling 3 under 9 years, and was able to go with the flow even thru tantrums and tears from falling over. The photos she took really captured the love and craziness of our wee family.
She even took some stunning couple pics of me and my husband that I adore I would recommend Tracey in a heartbeat. Kids grow so fast; if you are considering getting some family photos done with Tracey, please do it!!.

Thank you Tracey for such an amazing photoshoot. You understood what we were after! You manged to capture the magic for us even though the skies didn’t deliver the sunset light we would have liked. It really didn’t matter in the end because the album is absolutely stunning.
Tracey was amazing to work with during the shoot and in the month afterwards while I procrastinated and took my time over all the amazing photos to choose from!! You made the process easy for me and we couldn’t be more over the moon with our keepsake album.
Thanks again and I can highly recommend working with Tracey Morris Photography.
