Bring your family's story to life through stunning photos

I'm a family photographer based in Wellington.

I’ll be Your Family
Photographer,

I’m a mum of two and a photographer with 15 years of experience capturing life’s beautifully imperfect moments. After my first baby arrived, I traded spreadsheets for sunsets and turned my passion into a full-time career, photographing families across Titahi Bay and Wellington.

I’m all about real connections and genuine smiles – the kind that light up a room (or a photo). Whether it’s chasing your little ones through the golden hour or capturing that perfectly imperfect chaos that makes your family unique, I’m here to make your session relaxed, fun, and full of laughter.

From outfit advice to helping you turn your photos into stunning wall art, I’ll guide you every step of the way. No stiff poses, no stress – just heartfelt moments turned into timeless treasures. Because these aren’t just photos; they’re the memories you’ll hold close forever.

Let’s create something truly special together. ✨

Don’t take my word for it. Here is what my clients say.

  • Mélissa David

    Kasia was our wedding photographer and she was absolutely amazing. Working with her was easy: she told us what to do, there was no stress at all and we truely had a lot of fun in the process. I love the way she was able to capture moments of genuine emotions, and very quickly deliver plenty of beautiful, high quality photos. Our families overseas felt like they had been part of our special day thanks to her talent, and we are very grateful for that. Thank you Kasia!

  • Jessica-Maraea Mako-Andersen

    Kasia was amazing! My wee family can be awkward with photos and their willingness to sit for long amounts of time can be hit or miss with my little ones, but her communication and direction was spectacular and she was showering us with compliments the whole time we shot with her which made us feel confident and made the whole experience that more enjoyable. The location was stunning and her eye for the angles and scenery was very professional, definitely going back to her in future.

  • Matthew Coble

    We found Kasia on Instagram @takenbykasia. Easy online experience to book, wonderful photo-shoot in an amazingly scenic vista near Wellington, and we loved the photos. Good price too! We were especially impressed because we were trying to wrangle a 1.7 year-old who cannot follow instructions, and yet Kasia still managed to get photos of the whole family somehow looking at the camera and smiling. Strongly recommended!

  • Mei Lu

    We've had the pleasure of having Kasia for our maternity shoot and loved it so much we had Kasia take another family shoot once baby was here. Kasia was really professional and was super nice to go out of her way and rearrange her schedule in order to fit us in. Her info pack given prior to the shoot is also very informative and helped us prep for the shoot.

  • Polly Case

    Kasia is absolutely amazing! Her photos are incredible and she’s wonderful to deal with. I’ve had a number of shoots with Kasia to celebrate different life moments and she’s blown me away every time. Don’t even hesitate about booking her - you won’t regret it!!
