I was privileged to document the birth of Manahau in January 2020, so one year later, it was definitely time to get some updated portraits of this beautiful whānau!

This time we decided to document them in their home town, and headed to Papamoa beach to catch the sunrise.

And boy was it worth it! 😍

Always a pleasure working with you Aroha and Hamuera x
