Based in the heart of the Waikato region in Morrinsville, Jacqui Burr Photography specializes in natural newborn, maternity, and family photography that captures life’s most precious moments with authenticity and heart.
Jacqui’s approach to photography is refreshingly natural and unforced. Rather than relying on heavy posing and structure, she focuses on capturing raw emotion and genuine connection between family members. Her sessions are designed to be fun, relaxed, and filled with laughter, allowing families to simply be themselves while she documents the beautiful moments that unfold.
With a particular passion for newborn photography, Jacqui is captivated by every tiny detail of those fleeting early days—the delicate wrinkles, itty bitty toes, and soft little lips that change so quickly. Her newborn sessions celebrate babies in all their teeny beauty, creating timeless portraits that parents will treasure forever.
Maternity sessions hold special significance for Jacqui, as she loves capturing mothers as they grow and nurture new life. These sessions honour the incredible journey of pregnancy and the anticipation of welcoming a new family member. For family photography, Jacqui often creates magic during golden hour sessions at sunset, where children can run and play freely while she captures the authentic dynamics and love within each family.
Living on a beautiful farm with her husband Hamish, who is a dairy farmer, and their two children Willa and Colt, Jacqui understands firsthand how quickly childhood passes and how precious these moments truly are. Her personal experience as a mother informs her empathetic and patient approach with families.
Jacqui believes that life happens in the blink of an eye, and beautiful portraits are a special way to preserve those fleeting memories for a lifetime.
