My
Story
Hi, I’m Clarise!
I’m a born and bred country girl from the top of the South Island in New Zealand, now based in Melbourne. I started my photography business at 14, diving headfirst into shooting weddings, events, animal shows—you name it! I’ve always loved capturing real moments, and over the years, that love has only grown stronger.
Since then, I’ve completed a Fine Arts degree with First Class Honours and made the move to Melbourne in April 2025 to pursue my photography career full-time. I’m a total people person—bubbly, curious, and always keen for a good chat. I genuinely love meeting new faces, building connections, and capturing those raw, unfiltered emotions that make each story unique.
Growing up, I was obsessed with flipping through my parents’ old photo albums—there’s something so special about holding a memory in your hands. That’s exactly what I want to create for my clients: photos that feel real and timeless. The kind of images you, your kids, and even your grandkids can look back on in 50 years and feel all the feels.
I’m all about helping people feel comfortable in front of the camera and bringing out their best sides—whether that’s a big laugh, a quiet moment, or everything in between.
