ME & THE GIRLS – PHOTOGRAPHED BY RENAYE MCLACHLAN
Welcome friend, my name is Briar
Hi, I’m Briar!
I’m an artist, maternity and newborn Hamilton photographer, and a proud mum to two beautiful little girls, Aiia and Kiwa.
Becoming a mum myself has given me a fresh perspective on photography, where the love, bond, and emotions of your family are at the heart of every family & newborn photo shoot.
I truly feel privileged to capture these magical moments for so many families, especially those precious early days with newborns. Creating beautiful, meaningful images of your children is not just my job — it’s my passion. What’s even more special to me is when clients become friends, and I get to watch their families grow over the years.
