Captured by Bie

Captured by Bie is operated by Bie, a lifestyle photographer and mother of two who loves family adventures and enjoying the outdoors. Originally from Belgium but considering New Zealand home after fourteen years, Bie describes herself as a Virgo with a plant addiction who loves fancy dress and can be found in the evenings sipping wine while listening to 80s music. Her photography approach focuses on creating magical experiences for families, guiding clients through the entire process from initial contact to final photo delivery. The booking process begins with reaching out through a contact form to discuss dates and locations, followed by receiving a prep guide and paying a retainer fee to officially book the session. Bie takes care of preparing outfits, planning locations and ensuring clients have an experience they love, with the simple instruction for clients to show up, be themselves and soak up the experience. She provides online galleries within three to four weeks, allowing clients to pick their favourite photos for framing or sharing with loved ones. Captured by Bie emphasises creating tangible memories that families can look back on when days seem to have passed too quickly. Her lifestyle photography style focuses on natural, authentic moments that capture the essence of family life and relationships, making the photography experience enjoyable and stress-free for families while delivering beautiful results that preserve precious memories.
