Outdoor Family Photography in Hawke’s Bay
Knight by Light Adventures are seasonal outdoor sessions designed to celebrate your family just as you are—in the open air, golden light, and wild, beautiful landscapes of Hawke’s Bay.
Let the Light Do the Storytelling
There’s something magical that happens outside—kids run free, parents exhale, and genuine moments unfold. These sessions aren’t about posing or perfection. They’re all about connection, movement, and the quiet in-between glances that say everything.
Whether we’re wading through long grass or chasing light through the orchard, we go where the magic is—and I’ll gently guide you the whole way.

Light, Laughter & Honest moments
I’m Annie—your photographer, hype girl, and gentle guide behind the camera. Based in Hawke’s Bay with my husband and three kids, I created Petite Portraits to celebrate the beautiful chaos of family life. My sessions are relaxed and real, filled with laughter, cuddles, and moments that truly matter. Whether we’re in the studio or out chasing golden light, I’m here to help you feel comfortable, seen, and beautifully captured.
