About Andy Barker

Your friendly neighbourhood in Wellington photographer, here to capture life’s most memorable moments—just don’t expect any photos with food in people’s mouths! “That’s my one rule,” I always say, because your photos should reflect the best moments, not the mid-bite ones.

For over 15 years, I’ve honed a relaxed, candid style that puts you at ease, helping you enjoy your day without worrying about the camera. While I focus on capturing genuine, in-the-moment shots, I still incorporate natural posed photos when they fit the flow of the day.

What sets me apart is my use of cutting-edge technology. I leverage advanced AI tools to speed up my workflow, meaning your photos are often delivered within 24-72 hours—not weeks like traditional photographers. I also use leading tech like facial recognition at events, allowing for instant photo delivery directly to event-goers. I’m proud to be at the forefront of technology adoption in the industry, ensuring you get the best experience possible.

Whether I’m working a large corporate event or an intimate wedding, I’m adaptable and prepared for anything. With all the gear needed to handle any situation and the ability to take charge when necessary, I make sure everything runs smoothly behind the scenes so you can relax and enjoy the moment.

From the first consultation, I’ll take the time to understand your vision, ensuring your photos capture exactly what matters most to you. My aim is to deliver images that bring your story to life, capturing the magic of your day in a way that feels effortless and real.

Let’s grab a coffee and chat about your upcoming event—I’d love to hear what you’ve got planned!
