We had such an amazing photoshoot experience with Kirsten. The maternity and newborn collections exceeded our expectations. Excellent service and very professional - would highly recommend her!

I could not recommend Kirsten enough if you are searching for a Newborn Photographer. From the moment we walked into her studio we felt at ease which is a god send as sleep deprived new parents. She made us feel so comfortable in handing over Hudson for them to take care of. We sat back and relaxed and watched Kirsten create magic, she not only takes care of us as the parents but the baby as well, even changing nappies/giving your baby cuddles and allowing us time for feeding- the studio was lovely and warm and had lovely vibe about it. If you are not comfortable in front of a camera then she makes you feel it and the photos turned out absolutely incredible and exceeded all expectations! She has so many props and colours and outfits to choose from. Such a talented lady! I would give more than 5 stars if we could! We will be back with Hudson in the future for more wonderful images. Thank you so much Kirsten!!!

Was such an amazing experience, immediately felt right at home and was well looked after. The photos came out better than we had ever hoped and will definitely be coming back for more in the future!

Gorgeous experience photographing our newborn, Kirsten and her mum really are baby whisperers! We’re very happy with the photos we’ve received.

Highly recommend Kirsten! She took our family and newborn photos, and they are just so stunning. Kirsten was amazing to deal with. So lovely and patient. Our 2 year old wasn’t playing ball on the day, but she took her time, didn’t get flustered, and somehow still managed to get beautiful shots of her. We love how the photos turned out ❤️

Beautiful new born photo experience 😊 Our baby was only a week old and was the most easiest and comfortable experience for the first time out of the house, Both Kirsten and Lynley are so kind and welcoming, we felt at home and relaxed while they took beautiful photos, and even had drinks and coffee to have during the experience! They even change nappies for you 😝 Definitely recommend doing this to remember how small they were for such a short time Thank you Kirsten Naomi Photography 💛

Kirsten was very flexible and organised. Her photos are beautiful!

So happy with our photos and experience! We felt so comfortable while getting photos taken of us and our newborn. Thank you so much Kirsten 😊

We had a family sitting with Kirsten Naomi and we were so impressed with how calm, caring and friendly she was. Kirsten dedicated so much time to us, ensuring that she had a range of beautiful photos. As the male half of our family were (unbeknown to us) coming down with the flu, and the baby needed a nap, we were not the easiest of customers, I am sure. But somehow, our photos are beautiful, and we will treasure them. She has captured the relationship between our family members, and the personality of our wee monkeys can be seen, too!
Thank you so much for your patience, care and kindness Kirsten. Highly recommended.

What an incredible experience we had when Kirsten photographed my two week old. Not only did she take care of the baby she took care of me too. I was able to sit and relax while Kirsten took the most stunning photos. From changing the baby to a drinks fridge. Highly recommend Kirsten

We absolutely loved our experience with Kirsten. As new parents walking into the studio she just took the lead and let us relax while our wee one got his photos taken. No stress at all! He wasn't keen on sleeping that day but everything was still so calm and we ending up with the most beautiful photos. We can't thank Kirsten enough for such a great experience and wonderful photos we will always have and cherish!

Kirsten has such a lovely manner and captured beautiful images that reflected who we are as a family. We’ve done two photoshoots with her and would wholeheartedly recommend her!

Kirsten is so kind and helpful during the session. She takes the time to help with positioning and understands when a break is needed to settle baby. We are absolutely in love with our images and will treasure them forever.

I absolutely loved my experience with Kirsten Naomi Photography! Her studio is relaxed/comfortable and the photos are so SO beautiful. She's truly talented, and I'm just so happy we have these precious images. Would highly HIGHLY recommend Kirsten for your newborn photo shoot :)

Being a first time Mum I was super nervous when it came to our new born shoot. The whole shoot was stress free, very professional, and beautiful to watch. I am so grateful to have captured these moments of our baby, the photos exceeded my expectations and we will cherish them forever.

I found Kirsten competent and accommodating which was good for me as I was worried about if my baby would cry a lot and because I dislike my photo being taken! The photos turned out great though. I would highly recommend Kirsten.

We had a newborn shoot with Kirsten, and wow is she amazing or what?! Our little girl was so calm and relaxed through the whole session and we definitely felt comfortable with the way she was handled and cared for. Our photos are just stunning, they’re certainly going to be cherished forever 🥰

Kirsten took photos of my seven day old baby. Having her with Kirsten and Lynley was the first time I had relaxed since she was born! They were so gentle and loving with our wee one! I was so excited to see our photos, they were so beautiful I couldn't leave any behind!

Just absolutely amazing, I felt so welcome and as my first time with a proper photographer kirsten and her assistant made it feel like a breeze especially after such a challenging birth. And the photos OMG I'm sooooo in love she really captured what my family is all about and our wee bundle of joy. Thank you soooooo much kirsten.

Kirsten and lynley were so friendly and made me know the my boy was completely safe at all times. Kirsten listened to my ideas on the day that I had not discussed earlier and went with the ideas which I really loved! All our photos came out so beautiful.

Fantastic process, professional, very careful with the baby

Kirsten photographed our wee boy in a newborn shoot. The photos turned out absolutely stunning and it is something we will always cherish. Kirsten made us feel relaxed as first time parents, and settled our boy beautifully throughout the shoot. Thanks so much we absolutely love our photos!

Kirsten photographed our new born baby girl. Kirsten and her assistant were so professional and made us feel so comfortable throughout the photo shoot. The photos are absolutely stunning and of such high quality. We feel so so lucky to have these photos of our precious baby girl and highly recommend Kirsten Naomi photography and will be using her services again in the future.

You did such an amazing job! I'm so happy with the photos and really glad I got them done [of] my beautiful son to treasure those newborn moments. Thanks Kirsten.

Kirsten did an amazing job of photographing our family at Orton Bradley Park. The photos are beautiful, she captured us looking happy, even though the kids were grumpy! The service was spot on, from start to finish and we thoroughly recommend Kirsten.

Highly recommend Kirsten Naomi Photography. We went with our newly born daughter for a photoshoot and was blown away by her professionalism. Kirsten's patience and focus to create the perfect shots were second to none. Even though we have not seen all the photos yet but we are very happy with the results. I will be recommending her to all my friends.

What a very special hour that was! Beautiful photo from a wonderful photographer - love your obvious care and outstanding result!

Kirsten was lovely, great with our newborn and a very skilled photographer. Would highly recommend.

Kirsten is so talented, professional and awesome to work with. She made me feel comfortable throughout the whole shoot. Thank you so so much Kirsten, I am beyond happy and forever grateful. I absolutely love the photos and I look forward to doing more!!!

Kirsten and her assistant were absolutely fantastic! Extremely professional with a warm manner and incredible with a new born baby (she knew a lot more than us 8-day old parents!) and made us feel so comfortable in the studio. She carefully explained everything very thoroughly and took on all of our preferences and wishes without question. The images she was able to show us on the day were outstanding and the sneak peak we have already seen is just beautiful. We are so thrilled to have met Kirsten and would highly recommend her to anyone!

We were lucky enough to be gifted a newborn photoshoot with Kirsten and we can't recommend her enough! She was so thoughtful and caring with our baby boy and the photos are absolutely beautiful and something we can cherish forever.

For a woman who is very self-conscious about her body I was apprehensive about having a maternity shoot. I am SO glad I went through with it though!! Kirsten made me feel so comfortable and at ease. Her patience and eye for detail is a true gift. As a result, I now have a collection of photos that I will treasure for a lifetime💕 I can’t stop looking at the shots and I normally can’t stand photos of myself! I look forward to having our newborn shoot in a few weeks

We had a lovely photoshoot, and I am really happy with the beautiful portraits! An excellent experience, and I fully recommend Kirsten.

Kirsten was amazing! We are so pleased with the results of our experience. Kirsten Aldridge was patient, caring, attentive, reassuring and completely at ease with our newborn. Until next time!

We are so delighted with the stunning collection of phots we've just received from our new born photoshoot with Kirsten. Kirsten was very competent, patient and delicate in keeping our little girl comfortable and safe all throughout the session. The whole session was done at the ease of the little one, for which Kirsten allowed ample time for cuddles and feeding sessions and we didn't feel rushed at all. The studio was lovely, calming & warm and also had a wonderful collection of props to choose from, more importantly space and facilitates to keep the baby comfortable. So happy that I chose Kirsten Naomi Photography and we'll definitely go back for more photos in the future. Thank you so much for your beautiful work Kirsten

Kirsten photographed my four children beautifully. She sourced a lovely site with blossom trees and made our whole family feel at ease. I loved the mixture of candid and staged photos. She even got a gorgeous smile from a reluctant 10 year old boy! We will be back for more photos next year. 

Kirsten photographed our wee boy when he was 8 days old. The experience was lovely and the studio beautiful, calming, welcoming and warm! There’s a wonderful collection of props and clothing to choose from and Kirsten is so patient and delicate in handling babies and getting them into position for certain shots. We had a lovely shoot and the photos are absolutely stunning! Thank you so much :)

"Kirsten, I just wanted to say thank you so much for the photos. We are honestly so in love with them. You are truly talented and creative. I was just looking at the one with his wahakura, pito and ipu and was amazed at how you thought to do the umbilical cord with the wrap"

"Thank you again for the photo session yesterday. I am in awe of your professionalism as well as the way you were able to keep Tohu so calm throughout the session."

We had the privilege of having both pregnancy & newborn photos taken by Kirsten. My husband & I are usually very awkward in front of cameras and initially the thought of having to manage a newborn bub in her first week of life was a bit daunting for me. That being said, Kirsten was fantastic at putting us all at ease as well as making our experience with a newborn almost blissful (I may have snuck in a cheeky nap in the very comfy change room). And the result of the final photos was an incredible record of a very special moment in time. Kirsten you are a very talented lady! We thoroughly recommend!

Absolutely love our stunning photos of our wee man that Kirsten shot. She captured his personality and facial expressions so well. During the shoot she made the experience stress free and was amazing with our wee boy with her calm and gentle approach. Thanks Kirsten for giving us the opportunity to have these done, we are so happy with the results.

Kirsten photographed our daughter at 8 days old and are were delighted with the results! Kirsten is caring and professional, we felt welcome and relaxed in the studio and there was a wonderful selection of props but most importantly for us, the focus was always on our little ones comfort and safety. As new parents the idea of leaving the house for 4 hours was a little overwhelming but we're so pleased we did! 

I’ve just received the results from our newborn photoshoot with Kirsten and couldn’t be happier. She has captured absolutely stunning shots of our baby girl that we will treasure forever. The whole photoshoot experience was a pleasure. The studio was lovely and warm and set up with everything you could need to keep baby and parents comfortable and there is a wonderful collection of clothing and props available to choose from. Kirsten and her assistant handled our 6 day old so gently and professionally we were completely comfortable handing her over. They got a great selection of shots but but stopped as soon as baby showed signs of having enough. I couldn’t recommend Kirsten Naomi Photography highly enough! 

Kirsten was wonderful. She went to great lengths to get the shots. She scoped out locations ahead of time (despite not being in her own city), yet was flexible to also use locations I requested. Her assistant is also lovely and at times was moving ahead to look for additional locations. They are a great team. I'm thrilled with the results!
