Hi, I’m Yelena vukovich, an Auckland photographer specialising in colourful, candid photography for businesses, events and families.

I photograph everything from corporate functions, business launches and brand events to family sessions and personal celebrations. My work has been awarded and recognised internationally, but what matters most to me is creating photographs you will treasure for years to come.

My approach is calm and professional, creating an atmosphere where people can feel comfortable and be themselves. Whether I’m photographing a corporate event, a business launch or a family session, I’ll gently guide when needed while capturing the people, connections and atmosphere that make each occasion unique.
