Studio: 180 Paremata Road SH58 Porirua 5024*
*Please note: Access is from SH58/Paremata Road, not Oak Ave.
My name is Jo. I am a Photographer, Graphic Designer, Art Teacher and Proud Mama of two very curious boys. With over 20 years experience in these creative fields, I have never ‘worked’ a day in my life. I am lucky in that I love what I do.
What draws mums and dads to hello jofoto is not only the fun, fresh art-style portraits, but the actual sensory play their wee one gets to experience during a photo shoot. The added bonus for parents? They get to observe and then show off their baby’s exploration to friends and family in a delightful, colourful and wonderful way.
My experience within the education sector and motherhood has let me see firsthand the development that occurs for young ones during sensory play. I find it fascinating and photography is able to capture those moments of a baby using their see and touch senses.
If you like what you see in the foto gallery, please contact me to make a booking… I look forward to hearing from you!

Kirsten Walsh Photographer

Hi! I'm Kirsten, a wedding and portrait photographer based in Porirua. If you are planning a family portrait session, I'd love to photograph it for you!
My favourite sessions are the BIG family portraits - get the grandparents and your siblings together with their families, share the cost and get a fantastic range of photos. I love doing these sessions, it's a wonderful gift for your parents (all the grandchildren together, all their grown children together, cousins photos etc) and so cost-effective. You can even bring the family pet!
As time goes on you'll all find such value in these images which is why I'm so passionate about them. My style is unposed, natural and happy - I make sure the children enjoy the sessions and that shows through in the photos you receive.

Everyone has a great time and you get some gloriously special photos at the end of it. I'll capture the thoughtful, hilarious, sweet expressions of your kids and the connection and magic in your family. Book now for your lifestyle photoshoot experience!

Available to travel all over Wellington and the Greater Wellington region including Hutt Valley and Porirua.
I love creating authentic, beautiful images that tell each families unique story. I shoot to capture raw emotion and honest connections between real families – not a perfectly posed line up! Not everyone feels at ease in front of the camera, but I create a fun and relaxed atmosphere you’ll be comfortable in, guiding you into poses that feel - and ultimately look - un-posed, rather than stiff and forced. After your session, you’ll have a gallery chock full of images that truly capture the personality and love shared between your family.

If you are looking to get some natural, beautiful and timeless photos taken look no further. My name is Kelly and I am a natural light photographer based on the scenic Kapiti Coast. As a mum of 2 I understand how important it is to capture those precious moments in your child's life to have memories that you will treasure forever.
My style is light, bright and as natural as possible - I prefer to follow a toddler around and click away as they explore rather than forcing them to sit still and say cheese!
I travel as far south as Wellington and far north as Levin for in-home newborn sessions.
Please contact me with any queries or to book a session - I would love to hear from you.

"Wellington Based Newborn, Maternity and Family Photographer. I love capturing natural expressions, so I usually just hang about and observe, especially when it comes to children. There’s not a lot of “Say Cheese” from me! I love photographing children when they are happy and at play, rather than forcing them to sit still (which is sometimes impossible!)"

"My photography style is informal and spontaneous. I wont organise you into formal groups, ask you to sit, and on the count of three say cheese......so if that is what you are looking for then I am probably not the right photographer for you. Don't get me wrong - there is a place and time for every photographic style, its just that that style really isn't me! I love.....in fact I am obsessed with natural light - which means I don't work out of a studio. I follow the met service with a passion, I look at when the sun is setting and rising, I search for small bursts of hazy light that make me dizzy with excitement....and then I drag you along for the ride!"
