ME & THE GIRLS

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 6 and Kiwa 3

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 but my life. What’s even more special to me is when clients become friends, and I get to watch their families grow over the years.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Briar was able to capture moments of our daughter at only 8 days old. Its so precious. She was flexible with times even when we had to change multiple times. We really enjoyed the experience. Highly recommend and can't wait for our sitting mini 😍 We have continued to use Briar for our family photos when my son was born September 2024 & plan to have updated photos done in November this year. Love her work!!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Briar is an absolute pro at what she does. Our photos turned out beautifully and she was able to easily settle our newborn to capture the perfect shots of him. Will be going back next year for some family shots for sure!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Briar is a wizard at her craft! I had booked a maternity/newborn package with her, and as a bigger girl I was a bit anxious about the maternity shoot. But she made me feel at ease, and posed me to look like a goddess. I now have photos that I feel confident in and will treasure forever. Thank you :)

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have had the absolute pleasure of being on the other side of Briar’s camera lens for a few years now. She is a master of her art and we have been lucky that Brair has provided our whānau with special, irreplaceable memories of our children growing up. She is efficient and goes above and beyond for her clients aswell as managing to get beautiful portraits of active children. I would highly recommend Briar Elizabeth Photography to anyone wanting beautiful and timeless photographs.
