Tatara Rise:
Perched on the Port Hills with stunning views of the Southern Alps, this project by Fiona Macpherson Architecture is a masterpiece in timber joinery and engineering functionality. The layout of the home allows for seamless connection between living spaces while also boasting numerous hidden nooks and crannies for the family of four to explore. Privacy is paramount in this sanctuary, providing the perfect retreat for the homeowners.
Having had a keen interest in visual arts since I was a child, I drew the world around me until I picked up a camera to photograph it instead. After a week long stint as an intern in high school I enrolled at university to continue developing my interest in visual arts and mainly in photography.
After graduating with a Masters degree I moved from Belgium to New Zealand, which has been my home for the past 12 years. Wherever I go, my camera comes with me. From Europe to Australia, Africa to South America, I use my camera to document and interact with the world around me.
I like to push for the best to create images that fulfil my clients needs. Specialising in Commercial, Portrait and Performance photography, I’ve had the pleasure of working with a variety of clients across different industries.
