About the Photographers
Ngahuia Riri
I was born in the small East coast town of Opotiki, New Zealand, and began to take photographs around the age of 10 with the help of my grandfather.
I like my images to be fresh and simple, but at the same time I want
them to evoke emotion and beauty, to be able to capture that tear when
it escapes, and the happiness on your family and friends faces on your
special day, these will be some of the memories we I capture on your
behalf.
As part of who I am, I like to talk to my clients and really get to
know them, but more so, to let you be comfortable with me, I am a funny
and outgoing person who will keep you at ease and bring out your
character when in front of the camera.

I come
from a family where as far back as I can remember there
has always been a high importance placed on being creative. Crafts and
hobbies, painting and writing were all things that were not only
encouraged but indeed there was always a role model to follow.
I found that seeing a picture and capturing that image in the camera
were not as easy as one thought, so I sought learning. The more I
learned, the more I explored - I joined local camera clubs and the PSNZ
and haven't looked back since.
Photography is more than a hobby for me now, it's a passion, and I like
to think that passion is transferred into my images!
