Wedding & Family Photography
Photographs you’ll love for decades
 
Life moves quickly. My job is to capture your milestones, moments in time, life as it is before it is too quickly swept away. Kia ora, I’m PJ, a Māori wedding, whānau and maternity photographer. I photograph right across Hastings, Napier, Havelock North and the wider Bay, in my cosy home studio or out in the places you love. Relaxed, natural, no awkward posing.
 
 
Kia ora, my name is
P J Shepherd
Wedding & lifestyle photographer in hawkes bay, aotearoa
 
I am no stranger to understanding just how quickly life goes by. When I started photography it was an accident - now as I'm older I see just how fleeting time is.
After losing my papa to his battle with cancer I hone a different perspective when it comes to my mahi. Every photo counts. Every moment counts. Every milestone counts and deserves to be remembered. If not for you - then for the ones that are left behind.
