Uniquely Me - Lifestyle portraits

Are you ever stuck for an original gift idea, for a teenager, spouse, someone’s 21st birthday or other significant birthday?

Uniquely Me - Lifestyle photography sessions by Karamika Photography, are unique and lasting.

Investment starts at $250. Possibilities are even better if you get together with some friends and give a gift voucher for one of these sessions.

You may want to add a few more friends to the circle - to cover costs for hairstyling and makeup artistry. Optional extras are also available. Uniquely Me are photography sessions all about you.

We will spend a couple of hours with you in your own environment. You could be at home in your favorite spot, getting ready for the school ball, with your horse, reading a book, watching TV – or out and about shopping in town, at the mall, the beach, the park and we will be there to capture those genuine moments over a couple of hours - - it’s all about you!

The creative fee of $250 includes

• Up to 2 hours “on location” photography in Auckland

• Images on CD @ medium res. printable up to 6 x 4 inch

• 2 @ 8” x 10” enlargements of your choice

Lisa and Ryan




I first met Lisa a few months back when Ryan was not too far off making his arrival.
And here he is now at thirteen weeks. A gorgeously cute baby boy who is very much the apple of his Mummy's eye.. I love his wrinkled forehead and his dark inquisitive eyes.
Congratulations and thanks so much for allowing me to share these wonderful shots!

Kathryn's photo shoot

A different and fun photo session took place yesterday at our home base in Karioitahi with Kathryn - an up and coming vocalist from Waiuku. Kathryn has a lovely voice and we had some advertising shots to do with the microphone - so I had a few samples of Kathryn's great and varied repertoire. The weather held up long enough to get outside for some fun autum shots by our barn. Thanks to Yvonne for throwing those leaves! and Kat for a wonderful session which was great fun.

Mike and Lucy










I have recently returned from the South Island after a brief autumn break and also had the pleasure of photographying Mike and Lucy's wedding in Papanui. Lucy's dress came from by Jenny's Bridal. Lucy and Emmas hair and makeup by True Grit Hair Spa- Christchurch .
After a lovely wedding service by Father Dennis, at St Joseph's we travelled north in the late afternoon, to the Waimakariri river where we had the wedding party location shoot.
The weather was perfect ! - thankfully after the forecast and threat of all kinds of stormy winter in the week leading up to the day. After a fun shoot, with my daughter Ashley assisting again- we ventured back at sunset to the reception in Merivale at Elizabeth House
The venue was stunning and a delight to phototograph in. Congratulations to a lovely fun couple Mike and Lucy - catch up with you soon !
